LYRICS
One love stays with you
Buried in your every cell
The line is gone, but the hook’s still there
Haunting you in your weakest moments

Sunrise, I think of her
Bathed by the glorious rays
Her warmth, it mocks the sun
But like that orb, she’s so unreachable

Beauty is her eloquence
Not quite too sophisticated
Without a word, without a sound
Love is communicated

Here’s to her and what she’s done for me
She made me feel like the luckiest man alive
She showed me how to love someone
Even when they don’t deserve it

It’s hard to crawl when you’ve walked on air
Filled with love and life euphoric
But give someone else a chance
They might take you even higher

One love stays with you
Buried in your every cell
The line is gone, but the hook’s still there
Haunting you in your weakest moments
Haunting you in your weakest moments
Haunting you in your weakest moments
Haunting you in your weakest moments

Covid inspired England Football anthem also praising the NHS (all in white heroes). Haunting melody and suitable for the terraces. Call for the heroes, bringing the cup to us, all in white heroes, now we clap, make a fuss. We hold you in our arms, you made us so proud to be, part of the big crowd, part of the running free. Part of the victory, all our community. Unity. 

Tap at the Window
My little window says it's all much the same
People are walking, I think that I know their names
Tap at the window, checking we're all still here
How long can this go, keeping us holding fear?

And you lost all the time, that someone said you saved up fine
And told you you could spend it how you wanted, when
you wanted, where you wanted.

Call for the heroes, bringing the cup to us
All in white heroes, now we clap, make a fuss.

But you can't go out tonight, but you bent double tonight
Up into the velvet sky, up until you passed us by. 

We hold you in our arms, you made us so proud to be
Part of the big crowd, part of the running free, 
Part of the victory, all the community, all our community.

my cover of the song 'Divine Intervention' by the band, Taking Back Sunday. guitar and lyrics done by myself.

[LYRICS]

Despondent, distracted,
You're vicious and romantic;
These are a few of my favorite things.
All of those favors and this is what you choose.
Pass the blues, pass the blues,
And onto something new.

Something real,
Make it timeless.
An act of God and nothing less will be accepted.
So if you're calling me out,
Then count me out.

You were stubborn and melodramatic,
A real class act.
You see I know a few of your favorite things.
Five in the morning and out comes out pouring love
Out the same way in.

Something real,
Make it timeless.
An act of God and nothing less will be accepted.
So if you're calling me out,
Then count me out.

Something real,
Make it timeless.
An act of God and nothing less will be accepted.
I said real,
Make it timeless.
An act of God and nothing less will be accepted.
So if you're calling me out
Then count me out.

Divine Intervention (Taking Back Sunday cover)

Wanted to write a grand old classic;
To write a song that would just simply soar,
To write a song that would just simply tell you,
How I would always love you, ever more.

It is so sad that you've let this love fade,
A love that would once just simply fly;
And now, I can only turn and tell you:
I'm sorry, it's now time to say goodbye.

You've messed me round too many times,
You've played too often with my heart,
And, now the sun sets on our time together,
I see no other ending but to part.

I've loved you so, I would have given
My life, to save your own, I truly would have done,
I thought that you had truly loved me,
That you had truly been "the one".

I know that, if you were to turn around,
And, full of tears, beg me for a second chance,
I would perhaps be swayed, just for a minute,
And wonder if I should ask you again to dance ...

but you see,

You've messed me round too many times,
You've played too often with my heart,
And, now the sun sets on our time together,
I see no other ending but to part,

Though I must say you'll ever be in my heart.

In My Heart

File Updated: Friday 19:56 GMT: Vocal fixed at the end and one more full vox run put in. Some vocal business to reign in put. And Alien (1
+2+3) and Predator (1+2) fixed the last verse. Haha! Not Alien vs Predator!

File Updated: Last verse sung / More Real Bass / Guitar in

Gotta stop somewhere but you could keep writing this poem for a long long time.... RIP David Lynch 🙏🏽


Lyrics

Indiana Jedi Jones
'Move merge 'just might of movie
Mould of light where the matrix moves
Terminator to these tones
Total Recall
Oh Grammaton Clerics...
Now Equal feel for this Prozium relic

Spotless is that sunshine mind
Lists come good with Schindler's kind
Such colour graft,
The grain of Amelie
Usual suspects set us free.
Rest Dear David,
We'll find that highway!
Less Robocops
Found Bourne identities
Dreams of new Inception seeds
Pulp Fiction,
Sound violence for the free.

In this Fight Club,
Let's talk about it.
Run Forest Run,
Let's get them fit.
Just like the drink,
On the Green Mile
Where Lambs go Silent,
Not many a smile.
Life is Beautiful,
Reality we make.
The Pianists' hands still never shake

For Casablanca,
Play it Sam.
It's redemption in Shawshank,
Time big in their plan
Where Alien or Predator can't revoke
The Godfather spoke
The Dumb and Dumber joke
On all Carey craft we toke

Indiana Jedi Jones

Turn On A Six Pence

New releases ahoy, Buses at once! Proudly presenting! Five taken from recent recordings and to be featured on 'Wildest Dreams'. Formerly of Games To Avoid and Stitched Back Foot Airman (also on Soundcloud). Previously released -'Giant Red' - It's the 'big red clock-eater' meets 'whispers from the wet lands'. It's survival for this blip in time. My dystopian snapshot - 'well into burn-up time'. 12 self-penned mound melodies for 'you and yours'. Do the birds know it's Monday? Previously, previously released but only recently added - my first album 'Out of Here'! including 'Earth Says'.
