about

Piano ballad, about watching the sky go past . .

lyrics

So much confusion and it’s blocked out the sun and the sky,
but I . . . like it like that.
Going to take the last flight through time zones and into last night, to end up . . . outside your door.

Pass me on the road to the other side
I’m crossing that space to you
Send me a message, phone the hospitals
More than just passing through
Ask all about me, send someone after me
I’m more than a missing person
Travelling with haste, last in the race
I’ve blocked out the sun and the Sky

Back to where I began sliding through time and through space
And it’s up . . . the whole game is up
Coming to earth with a thump, before I even set off Crashing
headlong into last week.

Harry Stafford Manchester, UK

Guitar Shaped Hammers and Gothic Urban Blues are the result. ... more

A work of considerable power and subtlety. Certainly a grower but I was hooked on first listen and it seems to improve on subsequent plays. Well done to everyone involved and good luck for the future, hopefully a long and successful future. simon1956smith
