‘Le Touquet – 2016’
PERHAPS THIS TIME NEXT YEAR
You ask me questions I can’t answer
I write you songs you’ll never hear
Words fading into thin air
Words that die and disappear
In the company of egos
In the places I don’t want to be
I leave when no one’s looking
No goodbyes = no history
Now it’s time for me hideaway
Go on the run to someplace new
Where dreamers get to dream their dreams
Maybe a room without a view
Midnight keeps its secrets
Daylight takes but never shares
Twilight’s just the Devil’s kiss
Only Love’s Shadow cares
You ask me questions I can’t answer
I write you songs you’ll never hear
A promise made, a promise kept
Perhaps this time, next year
The beginning of a song? I never know at this stage, but I hope so.
Time for some music. My ballad ‘Pain – aka Love’s Shadow’ from the Dream Rescuer album. Hope you enjoy;

Yes, to leave the negatives and find the positives.

Thanks for that. You’re right. Mostly – to my mindset – the negatives outnumber the positives. Maybe that’s how it should be ~ George

Thank you. The song was a number I wrote 20 minutes after my dog – Skipper – died a few years ago. He was my best mate since being a kid. Thanks again ~ George

Wonderful words for a poem or a song, George. Your title sets the mood – hopeful and a bit nostalgic.,

Loving the twist of a shadow being for the good and not the ill, the one thing that cares but can never touch us. Keep going with this one.
