Wonderful version Tom... liking how this really rocks out.

Fun funky tune inspired by the notion that everything has an effect on everything no matter where in the universe. Nobel prize in physics 2023.....spooky science

Long ago he was born into the wild
A brave and Fearless lion child
He Grew up strong with his mother by his side, with his father roamed the countryside,
And together ruled the lion pride

Beneath the bluest sky you’ve ever seen
The bravest little cub that’s ever been

Today he sleeps most of his time away
Inside a little cage that his captors made
Cold hard floor and metal bars
Because he wandered off too far
And he became their easy prey

Gabriel don’t chain the lion down
Turn him loose, let him be
Let him live his days out in the sun
And set his spirit free
Yes set his spirit free
Everyone should be

Do you even even know you’re locked up in a cell
Do you even know there’s a big wide world out there
Do you remember your old home, the plains you called your own,
Or the sound of your mighty roar

Gabriel don’t chain the lions down
Turn them loose, let them be
Let them live their days out in the sun
And set their spirit free
Yes set their spirit free
Everyone should be free

Don't Chain The Lions Down

Iris


There was an iris in the way that I saw you smiling,
dancing to the London song, crying in my mind..
It is so quiet now that the music has faded into night
now that the hymns have gone away, the gardens broke in two

Hold me in the wild winds, calling in the night
tomorrow all these angels gone away
And who we love and what we love, don’t mean a thing to me
it’s just the lights and how they rumble in your head

Iris deeping blue and closing
wrap your body round me mind
drying drowning slowly falling 
gentle show me the unwind...

[I wrote this song a long time ago, back in the ‘80s when I was living in London and signed up to EMI... it was not a ‘suitable’ song for recording back then... heh, no hooks and a loose groove..  but I unearthed it the other day and it just seemed to flow in my own wee studio.  It’s virtually all acoustic, with a light layer of synth... and a few sonic gaps filled here and there...   I played my upright piano and blended that together with the vst piano, kicked a few bottles around and then pretended my poor cello was a jazzy bass...  it gave me a great blister to play it that way!   

It feels like quite a journey, to remember this song from back in another very different part of my life and now to re-claim it... as all my own work.    :-)]
