Through Windows.


Through Windows. 




V1
Cold was the bitter taste..
I have walked a thousand miles...
Never, was the hope I had..
To be the reason for your smiles....

Chorus
...And I'm looking through
the windows at love....
...Oh yes, I'm hoping in a
pure and simple moment....
...That what I see in
your baby blue eyes....
...Is exactly what it
means to me....


V2
Cold was the firm and honest truth..
That had brought a darkness here....
Definite, were the words you'd use..
To describe your message clear...


Chorus
...And I'm looking through
the windows at love....
...Oh yes, I'm hoping in a
pure and simple moment....
...That what I see in
your baby blue eyes....
...Is exactly what it
means to me....


(M-8) Brief melody played on strings?


V3
Cold had been ev'rything you gave..
You told me to pack and leave....
Never, was a million lifetimes..
Gonna cleanse this pain I grieve....

V4
Cold roads are facin' loneliness..
To where I have still to go.....
But if you could save me now..
Reflections lost is what I'd know.....


Chorus
...And I'm looking through
the windows at love....
...Oh yes, I'm hoping in a
pure and simple moment....
...That what I see in
your baby blue eyes....
...Is exactly what it
means to me....
Chorus
...And I'm looking through
the windows at love....
...Oh yes, I'm hoping in a
pure and simple moment....
...That what I see in
your baby blue eyes....
...Is exactly what it
means to me....

(To fade......)

Infinite.


Infinite. 





V1
what is this life worth now...
if I can't share every day with you ?
What are the things to lose..
that would make our love forever true ?
I end up wondering...
just what you did to make me feel this way...


Chorus
I was always...blue......
nothing without ….youuuuuu
it was never....true....
that I cheated..... toooooooo
but you gotta know....
you're my infinite dreammmmm


V2
the seasons come and go darlin'.....
but you're like the springtime in my heart...
so many gifts.. you bring with you...
to fill my life with beauty's art..
I know you loved me then...
how'd I ever let you slip so far away......


Chorus
I was always...blue......
nothing without ….youuuuuu
it was never....true....
that I cheated..... toooooooo
but you gotta know....

instrumental for 4 bars.....

V3
in the days before my end...
I have gotta clear the air with you...
I wish you'd understand the pain...
losing you has brought the passion flowing through..
I always thought we'd be...
together till the very end of time...


Chorus
I was always...blue......
nothing without ….youuuuuu
it was never....true....
that I cheated..... toooooooo
but you gotta know....
you're my infinite dreammmmm

Don't be so cruel.


Don't be so cruel. 




V1
It started on a Monday...
the promise that you wouldn't keep.
Started then to hurt me....
all the sadness that I'd reap....
what made, you, say those things...
when you never really meant em all ?
I don't know how to feel,
when you're never there for me to call......

Chorus.
Don't be so cruel....
Don't be so cruel....
Don't be so cruel....
To me now....
Don't be so cruel....
Don't be so cruel....
Don't be so cruel....
To me girl.....(boy)

V2
bus stop on a Tuesday...
rain was falling heavy in my heart.
At the bus stop on a Wednesday...
saw in your eyes how we would part.
How could you do to me...
what I'd never ever do to you ?
My heart is breakin' now...
'cos you raised me so that I could fall...



Chorus.
Don't be so cruel....
Don't be so cruel....
Don't be so cruel....
To me now....
Don't be so cruel....
Don't be so cruel....
Don't be so cruel....
To me girl.....(boy)

(Mid-8...)
Spoken softly or sung softly..

Don't you know it girl...
I gave all my faith to you ?
Wasn't it enough darlin'...
That I believed our love was true


Chorus.
Don't be so cruel....
Don't be so cruel....
Don't be so cruel....
To me now....
Don't be so cruel....
Don't be so cruel....
Don't be so cruel....
To me girl.....(boy)


V3
It ended on a Friday....
my heart couldn't take the strain...
it had almost done on Thursday...
I can't bleed with so much pain...
why did you let me down...
when all I wanted, was you girl ?
I feel, so foolish, standing here..
you betrayed me for another girl.....


Chorus.
Don't be so cruel....
Don't be so cruel....
Don't be so cruel....
To me now....
Don't be so cruel....
Don't be so cruel....
Don't be so cruel....
When you're everything I wanted now...





A story about young loves folly...
and betrayal for another girl. (reverse as appropriate)

Cloud Surfing.






Ribbons and bows in angel hair,
And sandy castles everywhere.
I see your eyes, it's so unfair,
Because you can be mine.

But now old friend the time has come,
For me and you we'll forever run,
To golden places, bathed in sun,
I know it's what has come.


Chorus
We've seen the clouds,
From both sides now,
From when and where,
And yet somehow,
There's no illusion,
Left to run,
We're surfing distant clouds.... this way.



The days have gone for acting strange,
You pass a smile, you know I've changed.
We lived and loved in every way,
And now it's time to go.

A heart that beat (ed), failed at last
We had much more than we had asked.
And lived our lives the fullest way,
By sharing love each day.


Chorus
We've looked at things,
From both sides now.
In war and peace,
But yet somehow,
There's no delusion,
Left to hold,
We're surfing distant clouds.... this way.



Remember when we took that dare,
To be with one another everywhere ?
We knew a love that was so rare,
That goes on for all time.

A power to love despite the fear,
Was what I held with you so near.
And family fun through every day,
You blessed my life that way.


Chorus
We share our love,
From both sides now,
With give and take,
And still somehow,
There's no confusion,
Left to take,
We're surfing distant clouds.... this way.





Based upon the song and music of Joni Mitchel's, 'Both Sides Now.'
One of the best songs ever written.

Run, (live on darling)

 
Run, (live on darling)





Slow musical intro.



V1
It wouldn't be so bad sweet darling,
If we hadn't argued that way.
Did you walk ahead in anger,
Strode on without a care to say  ?

V2
I wish I had been fairer now,
Distressed I let my temper go.
It's really not your fault my love,
That I forgot to let you know.



CHORUS

I can't breath.......
My heart is breaking...
As you suffer for this pain in me..
You have been my only reason...
Please run my darling..... 
Come back and set me free.

V3
The rain is falling upon my heart,
This place has not been known before.
Treachery in an icy storm,
Sees my love brought to the floor.

V4
As an echo in my distant dreams,
I call out to spare the pain...
But you can't hear above the boom,
Thunder peals across the rain.



CHORUS

I can't breath.......
My heart is breaking...
As you suffer for this pain in me..
You have been my only reason...
Please run my darling..... 
Come back and set me free.



Middle 8. (Take melody down, then raise up, hopeful of a cure)



V5
Now wires and tubes hang coldly,
This nausea brings me tears to sting.
An awful feeling caused by me,
Cause my throbbing ears to ring.

V6
I feel for your shallow pulse,
Your breath so quiet it's almost none.
I beg you darling, return to me,
To the land that you and I'll run..




CHORUS

I can't breath.......
My heart is breaking...
As you suffer for this pain in me..
You have been my only reason...
Please run my darling..... 
Come back and set me free.



Repeat of V1

It wouldn't be so bad sweet darling,
If we hadn't argued that way.
Did you walk ahead in anger,
Strode on without a care to say  ?

Repeat of V2

I wish I had been fairer now,
Distressed I let my temper go.
It's really not your fault my love,
That I forgot to let you know.



CHORUS

I can't breath.......
My heart is breaking...
As you suffer for this pain in me..
You have been my only reason...
Please run my darling..... 
Come back and set me free.




Then. (Spoken slowly)

Run... please live on darling.
Run...and know I love you so...!!





About a woman out walking after a row, knocked over by a passing car on a wet deserted road. Her lovers thoughts about her being in this coma because of him.

You make it look so easy


You make it look so easy





Rambling melodies... April blossoms....
There's a light on the breeze...
You hum tunes I'd forgotten....
Plucking chords..... coaxing heaven...
You appear to be dreaming...
How your heart beats in a rhythm...

Chorus
But it's only now that I'd noticed....
Your support always kept me.
Living life to it's fullest....
Your voice knew how to lift me....
'Cos your love is so easy.............to me...


In a way..... I can't capture....
Fingers tickle.. and tease me..
Sending my spirit..into rapture..
I'm in awe... of the graces...
Hearing your poetic lyrics bring...
Only big smiles...to our faces....

Chorus
But it's only now that I'd noticed....
Your support always kept me.
Living life to it's fullest....
Your voice knew how to lift me....
'Cos your love is so easy.............to me...

(Middle 8)
Musical diversion, possibly wind instrument


But I know how… you send it...
In the voice... I am hearing...
Even if....our passion ended....
Such love for life... you are keeping..
Always passed on...with patience...
Until my eyes begin....with their weeping...

Chorus
But it's only now that I'd noticed....
Your support always kept me.
Living life to it's fullest....
Your voice knew how to lift me....
'Cos your love is so easy.............to me...
Chorus
But it's only now that I'd noticed....
Your support always kept me.
Living life to it's fullest....
Your voice knew how to lift me....
'Cos your love is so easy.............to me...

No more rhyme,no more reason.

No more rhyme,no more reason.




Lord knows, I've been lonely
In the days of darkness....
Nothing came to rescue me....

Now it's time...to kill or cure
For the pain won't leave me..
Without a powerful cure....

Chorus
And this day, has just got darker..
Feelings that you'll always be away...
Did I never show you courage....?
No rhyme, no more reason..
All I know...you'd walked away..

(Mid 8)
And it don't matter........
I could never leave you...
Even though....you had walked away.

So I come back to hating..
All the pain inside me..
In a world that you left...

All is crime without a passion..
How do I keep going...on..?
When everything....seems somehow wrong.

Chorus
And this day, has just got darker..
Feelings that you'll always be away...
Did I never show you courage....?
No rhyme, no more reason..
All I know...you'd walked away..

(Mid 8 ½)
Baby love or leave me..
All I know...is this loss...
Everyday is...like a waking nightmare..

Chorus
And this day, has just got darker..
Feelings that you'll always be away...
Did I never show you courage....?
No rhyme, no more reason..
All I know...you'd walked away..

Then I'm smashed but healing..
Feeling heat come from inside me.
Never give in..to overwhelming loss..

All the dreams are calling...
Coming here to save me...
Yet you are so very....far away.

Chorus
And this day, has just got darker..
Feelings that you'll always be away...
Did I never show you courage....?
No rhyme, no more reason..
All I know...you'd walked away..

(Pace slows right down)

Symmetry returned... I breath
Deeply in....a new fragrance...
And I know... so sweetly...
There never was.. a rhyme or reason...



For
ANNA CORCORAN.
