Classics: The Best of The Kinks

You Really Got Me - Kinks - Best

Sunny Afternoon

Twist And Shout

The Best of the Kinks

All Day and All of the Night

This is the second of two songs I wrote with Nick Clarry. He gave me some lyrics and I wrote music to them which is the opposite way round to how I normally write.

There's a bit of a theme going on with Nick's lyrics in this song and the other song I wrote with him, Rescue Me. He's either doing the rescuing or being rescued. 

Set This Poor Heart Free (Clarry)
  
I’m tired of looking out of dirty windows
And waiting for the sun to appear 
I’m tired of living life in the shadows
Only stepping out when the coast is clear
When rain clouds are gathering 
She comes to me in a dream
Her eyes are the colour of ebony 
And she sees right through me

One day I will turn the tables 
on my captivity
I’ll find a way into the prison 
Set this poor heart free
Set this poor heart free

I’m tired of listening to conversations
And spending my days talking to myself
I’m tired of waiting for some inspiration
And wishing I could be somewhere else
When the dark night closes in
She comes to me in a dream
Her eyes are the colour of ebony
And she sees right through me

One day I will turn the tables 
on my captivity
I’ll find a way into the prison 
and set this poor heart free

One day I will turn the tables 
on my captivity
I’ll find a way into the prison 
and set this poor heart free
Set this poor heart free
Set this poor heart free
