We enjoyed the original and this is an excellent example of the new tech...

Got my past packed in a hefty bag
In the backseat of my car
Got my headlights on the road ahead
My eyes fixed on the stars
And I don’t know where I’m going
I’m just sick of where I was
No sure way of knowing 
if I’ll find someone to love

I’m a runaway, runaway, runaway heart

Got my mind set on a happy life
With a girl I don’t yet know
Left my troubles in the driveway
With the last one I let go
She asked me where I’m going
I just answered with a shrug
The restlessness is growing
Gotta find someone to love

No more fights or empty nights
I left them on the drive
A tank of gas, a roll of cash
The endless road to ride

No, I don’t know where I’m going
But I finally feel alive

Runaway Heart

Myself And I

Time to Say Goodbye is inspired by the WH Auden poem, Stop All the Clocks.
The poem was featured in the memorable funeral scene in the movie, Four Weddings and a Funeral.
Though a sad and mournful song in the beginning, Time to Say Goodbye builds to portray a celebration of life.
This version features a vocal from Eleanor Forte, a synthetic voice for the program Synthesizer V.
The vocal starts about 50 seconds into the song.

Wedding On The Green

Thierry Fraisse est l'auteur et l'interprète de cette chanson.

Le moment n'est plus à l'économie 
Je flambe comme aux cartes maintenant 
Ça n'est plus une question de survie 
Juste l'instant, l'instant présent 

Tout peut basculer, tout est fragile 
Ça ne tient vraiment qu'à un fil 
Mais pour l'heure, je marche, je ris 
Je pleure et jouis le jour et la nuit 

Que croyez-vous donc emporter ? 
Votre esprit est comme le mien 
Il s'envolera en petite fumée 
Et il n'en restera rien 

Rien si ce n'est quelques allusions 
Dans la bouche de certains vivants 
De vagues souvenirs brouillons 
Qu'ils ressasseront, exagérant 

J'aurais voulu que cela dure 
Même après moi, je vous le jure 
Mais voilà, tout se précipite 
Vers le dernier précipice

La vie n'en a que plus de saveur 
À quel prix, je vous le demande 
Faut-il autant de malheur 
Pour qu'elle se fasse ensorcelante ?

J'écoute les piafs qui s'égosillent 
Pour nous dire, il me semble 
Que tout ça fut beau à mourir 
Tiens voilà que j'en tremble...

Father Of Lights

My friend came over last Sunday, October 5, and started jamming this chord progression. We liked it so we recorded it, hence the very clover song title.  Bob is on the acoustic guitar and I am on the electric guitar.  This is a one-take jam that we thought we would post. 

Band-in-a-Box is supplying the balance of the tracks.

Right Between The Eyes

He claimed to be a friend of mine
And still he told me of his plan
Oh, that woman is so fine
I’ll steal her from you if I can
I’ll try to turn her head
Away from you
I’ll put it to the test
Let’s see if she’ll be true

Strange behaviour for a friend
I said
Not at all the kind of thing
That I would expect
Didn’t see it coming
Took me by surprise
Didn’t bother sneaking around
Hit me right between the eyes
Mmmmm
Right between the eyes

He claimed to be a friend of mine
Thought my girl would double time me
He didn’t care what I would feel
Just set out to undermine me
She sent him packing
She spurned him good
I knew our love was strong
I knew she would

Strange behaviour for a friend
I said
Not at all the kind of thing
That I would expect
Didn’t see it coming
Took me by surprise
Didn’t bother sneaking around
Hit me right between the eyes
Mmmmm
Right between the eyes

He claimed to be a friend of mine
We can let bygones be bygones
I am sure that given time
We can put all this behind us
I said I think you might be
Somewhat deluded
From this day forth old pal
Our friendship is concluded

Strange behaviour for a friend
I said
Not at all the kind of thing
That I would expect
Didn’t see it coming
Took me by surprise
Didn’t bother sneaking around
He hit me right between the eyes
Mmmmm
Right between the eyes

Hair pulled back in a pony tail 
Tall and skinny as a fence post rail 
Tattooed sleeves runnin up and down my arms
Cowgirl boots just a little bit dirty 
Never walk like I’m in a hurry
Last thing I’d want is to ride in a luxury car

Bad Ass Ladies don’t drive Mercedes 
You might think I’m a little bit crazy 
But I know who I am and where I’m goin
Big ol diesel 4 wheel drive 
Across the river and through the pines
A country girl just a flying down fall line road

Whoop and holler like a crazy fool 
If I had me a dollar I”d know what to do
Take the old jeep trail up to that backwoods bar
Have a real cold beer then have me another 
I’m a better version of a Redneck Mother 
Never gonna trade my truck for a luxury car

Bad Ass Ladies don’t drive Mercedes 
You might think I’m a little bit crazy 
But I know who I am and where I’m goin
Big ol diesel 4 wheel drive 
Across the river and through the pines
A country girl just a flying down fall line road
