Justin Hayward - Remember Those We Have Lost (Celebrate Their Journey)

~Tale of a heroic dolphin named Pelorus Jack who guided hundreds of ships through treacherous waters between Wellington and Nelson in New Zealand~

THE BALLAD OF PELORUS JACK

Ye old sailors men of the sea
A dolphin came to guide us safely
He swam in the waters known as French Pass 
Leading us through currents to safety at last

My ship the Brindle she‘s steady and strong 
Our friend Pelorus Jack helped us along
He leapt at my bow sharing his joy
Thru the mist and the rain, he did bid us ahoy!

Pelorus Jack knew the waters ahead
I will lead you through danger he said
Old faithful Jack he was here forty years 
He gave his heart to us sailors 

A drunken sailor on a ship named Penguin 
Shot a bullet through Jack but he still fought to win 
Four weeks we watched for him morning till night 
One morn he appeared in the bright sunlight

The Penguin was lost in a violent storm
Jack turned away and all were forlorn 
Thousands of ships were saved by his eyes 
Will mankind now listen and hear dolphin‘s cries 

Pelorus Jack, Oh where are you now 
Leading a ship in heaven somehow 
Pelorus Jack, our guide in the night 
Your spirits in history, a legend in light

The Ballad Of Pelorus Jack

Something completely different. Sax player Len challenged me for a composition using Chromatic scale. Fairly complex to play the score. The challenge was to stretch towards the avant garde, but keep it musical.

Broken Dream

 
Love is Love is more than words you know

Like snow angels in the sun

There are so many things I want to show

I dream of you and your soft touch

Though lately we’re so busy

That I haven’t felt that much

And being together is supposed to be easy

I have so much I want to share

And there is so much more inside

At times I feel my heart is bare

And I wish in your arms

I could just hide

I wish in your arms

I could just hide

You have things that pull us apart

There are dreams I think better unsaid

In these matters of the heart

Maybe they are best solved in bed.

Alone at last in a long lost dream

That’s where I have been

Maybe to take you hand and show you this

Is all I want and then I wish for love on a nighttime star

As I stand up at night alone I watch you sleep and dream afar

Maybe I should call you on the phone

I miss you so..to be in my world

There is so much I want to say

As I watch you sleep your hair in curls

I let the night just drift away.

You are my love, my morning light

You are my dreams, you are the knife

And in my walks through the lonely nights

I love you with all my life

Come take my hand and be my love

Let me rest my tired head on your skin

And have the warm rains come from above

Let us love again, my love, my friend
