(Now We Are) Rust

I'm tired of waiting
How long have I been waiting here?
To hear the sound of your wings
Leaving me

My soul has been breaking
Even though we've been taking time
When I know that your smile
Brightens someone else's day

And I feel
The weight of this life on me
And I feel
The price was too much to pay... This time

Now we are rust
Now we are dust
Now we are lost

I'm telling myself that
Maybe I can turn this page?
Now forever is over
In these silent days

This distance between us
The road that I had to take
Made tomorrow a stranger
And us yesterday

And now I'm
Watching our bridges burn
That we built
On rivers of wasted years

Now we are rust...

(Now We Are) Rust

Unashamedly 80’s pop, from a band that were there first time around!

Formed in the early 80's by school friends Jon Williams and Simon Baker, originally under the name 'Teknicolor', before becoming 'This Blue World' in the late 80's, taking the name from one of their songs. 

The band had various line ups over the years with the core members always remaining Simon and Jon. 

Sadly, despite a keen following and a cache of hooky earworm songs, fame eluded them and, as so often happens, life and responsibilities overtook their attempts to break into the commercial market. 

However, the hunger never went away and the intervening years have given a lifetime of experience and emotions that have now provided the foundation for new tracks and a revisiting and rejuvenation of some of the older standards. 

This Blue World are back

Blending pop, rock and ballads with orchestration and drama,  the songs are chronicles of the heart, mind and emotions with every one a secret story.
