about

This isn't some kind of weird change in musical direction for me, I just liked how this style worked for these two tracks, and I felt they captured the rawness of my feelings perfectly. I couldn't get sax on them because I had an eye op recently and can't play for a while, but I wanted to get the tracks out whilst I was still grieving a recently lost soulmate, who this track in particular is for and about.

lyrics

I've been a long way down
Hit the bottom now I'm falling through the ground
Now I see you more than I've
Ever seen anything in life
A scream that makes no sound
Searching for a thing I know that can't be found
Even though I know I'm crazy
It's stealing me now

Coz it's been a week but it feels like 3
And the pain it's growing exponentially
Never thought the time would come for you to leave
When it's been a year it'll feel 15
And I know I'll miss you for eternity
But at least the hole you left is all for me
and it's bitter sweet

It's seems the wrong way round
if I had a dollar for each pound
time would be what I would buy
just to spend another 'one more night'
if leaving is goodbye
I want to thank you for the light you brought my life
but I hope I'm wrong and one day I'll re meet your eyes
