about

This song was written many years ago when I was working in France a lot. Even though it was exciting being away & meeting lots of new interesting people I was always glad to be home!
It’s called “Patterns” because I fell into a kinda habit!

lyrics

Anxious lost insane
Trembling locked in chains
Expectations rising high
The child is back again

You stride into the light
Restless in my pain
The memory of you has faded
But the wondering's the same

Oh walk into the night I'm on your side
With anguish trepidation override my fear
_________________________________
_________________________________

Oh with soulful imperfections of my kind
A tangled language rotting in my mind leads me astray

The devil's song is running inside
It rides upon the storm it floats on the tide
And every time I turn to leave
The soothing low November breeze leads me on
Whilst forcing time a moment seized
The icy hand that fights and pleads
Leads me home where I belong

Talking in cafes
Thoughts lost in haze
Dreaming on temptation
Of wild and perfect days

Shun reality
Blinded I can't see
Adult contemplations
Of impossibilities

Still....in my mind I'm laying by your side
Together in the hills of Aveyron the dream goes on

The devil's song.........................................

I generally write the basic structure and lyrics, then allow collaborating musicians to write their parts over the basic structure. This can lead to some interesting and surprising results. ... more
