A brand new song about life and time, which reminds me a little of Midlake.

Blink Of An Eye

A Blink of an Eye

This song is dedicated to my gran Phyllis Tewson whose husband died in his fifties. She lived in the same house on her own until she couldn’t look after herself in her late eighties. She was an inspiration to me and she never complained about her lot. Always took an interest in young people and was enthusiastic about all the crap that I shared with her in spite of my naivety. I think about her a lot.

35 years

<<a breakup song>>

You can read me like a book
You can play me like a song
the one that you turned to 
When things went wrong

The angel on your shoulder
The hero looking over
I’m feeling so much older
And the world seems colder 

your words are a circle
Drawn in the sand
There is no beginning
There is no end

Like wandering the desert
40 days and nights together
I don’t work well under pressure
Can’t find the answer

You can take it like how you want it but I still want to be your friend
Your savior ain’t beside you so unless you look inside you
We’re out here alone
We’ve got to save our own skin

We get up when we’re down
Now were lost, we’ll be found
We go out on the town until the morning comes

We’re a little bit older, you’re a little more sober, I’m a little hungover
When the daylight comes 


life is beautiful
Life is a scream
But here comes the heartache 
that dashes your dream
 
there’s a devil on your shoulder
a shadow falling over
your feel so much colder
The world seems so older

When The Daylight Comes

Morry recorded this cover recently...he did all the music and vocs - crazy. I've never heard this covered and I really like Morry's take on it, up tempo, guitars etc. ...hope you enjoy it.

When The Roses Lose Their Bloom

I started out with the idea of Winter as a spirit, but decided to just make it a ghost and the cold air and landscape is more or less a metaphorical  atmosphere. This is much more ambient than our other songs.

What do you think?  Have we gone off the deep end?  Too ambient?

Lyrics;
The roses lose their bloom
As autumn marches in
And bare become the branches
From the cold foreboding wind

And she rises with the moon
Like a wave upon the shore
A spector from the dark
Frozen to the core

Ice will meet the stone
Along the riverbed
And crystallize the air
Where her lonely spirit treads

When the stars begin to fade
And the moon is in retreat
Silently she cries
On the cold deserted street

To where her spirit dwells
her lonely journey ends
'Till once more night will fall
And she rises once again

And the roses lose their bloom
As autumn marches in
And bare become branches
From the cold foreboding wind

When The Roses Lose Their Bloom

;-Tous Les Matins Du Monde-;

The tried and tested little motion
I guess I really should have put some clothes on
The icicles that hang are souvenirs
I'm far more shallow than it first appears

CHORUS
Internal character assassination
Put myself down before you can
Whose the most mighty man?

Kick back and let me tell you a short story
Its a tome of all my former glory
Are you listening?  I'm letting out a secret
There's nothing captured so don't read it

CHORUS

Internal Character Assassination

We are two old friends from KY. Posting songs we recorded many years ago on Tascam cassette recorders...and starting to get together to write and record again on a Tasccam DP24 when our dad schedules allow...hopefully we'll have some new ones to post soon.
