Partial new lyrics. Remix 10th of june 2023

Change the road
(c) HWBerkhout, 2023, june 10 

(spoken)
Yesterday I saw a group of people at our town hall.
An older woman was telling them a story
It was a tale about the future of us all

If we can't change the way we live, she said,
we soon will face huge tragedy
I've often heard that kind of doom
But her words really touched me

Chorus (singing)
Change the road before tomorrow
You're not alone, we are your friends, she said
Time we cannot borrow
We've spent it all and that's too bad

(spoken)
She told us we were racing the wrong way
Our greed and waste only take us further away
Change all that, she urged,
or life dies out. Don't wait another day

=solo guitar

Chorus (singing)
Change the road before tomorrow
You're not alone, we are your friends, she said
Time we cannot borrow
We've spent it all and that's too bad

=solo piano=

Change the road or there'll be no tomorrow
You're not alone, we are your friends, I now say
Time we cannot borrow
We've spent it all, so find a new way

Change the road, before tomorrow
You're not alone, we are your friends, we all say
She preached these words a million times before
And she was right all the way!

=solo guitar=

Yes, change the road before tomorrow
Time we cannot borrow
We've spent it all, soon face sorrow

Change the road
Or there'll be no tomorrow
We're not alone,
we are with friends this way
Yes, change the road
Or start to pray

Change the Road -remix

Track intended to pay homage to the old instrumental tunes that inspired so many of us to pick up a guitar and hack away. Think Ventures, Shadows - only with less talent.

[A1]
Maybe tomorrow 
This ocean will be blue again
Ripples will be glistening 
Sailors will be whistling
And my heart will shine like new again

[A2]
Maybe tomorrow
The heavens won’t be looking forsaken
No more clouds of sadness
Just yellow rays of gladness 
To heal me and help hope awaken

[B]
Yesterday overflowed with laughter
You were there 
Smiles were everywhere
But now today, the sea I sail is lonely
And my heart longs for repair

[A3]
Maybe tomorrow
I will understand my role in our story
If I can figure out my karma
Then maybe I will know
Maybe tomorrow

[INTERLUDE]

Then maybe I will know

When I figure out my karma
Then maybe I will know
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow

Old Memories

That Flame (feat. Tilted Halo)

Here’s a bit of a follow-up to our last song, “2 Minutes In A Car Wash”. 

The story continues with "Little Blue Green Opel"...

She had a little blue green Opel
With a short funny shift
She drove it everywhere
Never needed a lift

A radio with buttons
Some candy in her coat
A paperback of Burroughs
And a half-written note

She'd park down by the river
Watch the barges roll on past
Said the future was a thief
And the present would never last

She had boots from Vienna
With cracked leather soles
She only walked at night
Cause she said it had soul

I asked where was she going
She said maybe somewhere
Then she laughed like a poet
Who had nothing to fear

We drank in the Opel
Till the bottle ran dry
Then she pointed to the stars
And whispered don’t you lie

She had a little blue green Opel
And a map torn in two
She said don’t try to follow
Then disappeared into the blue

Baby please forget that stop button
You don't need to hit that button
don't want money, don’t need a mansion

Just hit pause before it's too late
Yeah hit pause before it's too late
Come on now doncha hesitate

I feel like I've been on fast forward
Yeah too long on fast forward
Slow it down, you know my password

Rewind me, take me back in time
Rewind me, take me back in time
Back to when you were all mine

Rewind Me

She's Got A Kid

I compose songs, write lyrics and sing most of them. I don't have  'one'  style. It depends on my mood or on certain issues that are going on in our world. AND some listeners can even tell which songs are genuine 'Birchwood-songs' (!)
