Pillar Talk

You called out to me last night

You were quiet

You were grieving

You called out to me last night

You were sobbing

You scraped your breathing

I called out to you last night

Feel for love

Keep on receiving

I called out to you last night

I am listening

Keep on believing

You called out to me last night

You so gentle

Your tears slow leaving

You called out to me last night

Hold me close

Your faith I'm needing

I called out to you last night

I am here

On your love I'm leaning

I called out to you last night

We are together

We will keep on keeping

Inspired by Images

Girls and boats and bright blue flowers

Past and present and subliminal powers

Sunrise and sunset and those lost hours

Night and day and the hope that towers

You know where I have been

You know where I am

You know where I go

You know I know of the past 

You know because I let it show

Moments and minutes and days of years

Waiting and waiting and waiting for tears

Memories and reminders and thoughts of fears

Skating and dating and mating to once loud cheers

I don't know where you have been

I don't know where you are

I don't know where you go

I don't know if you know of the past

I don't know because you don't let it show

Package Tour

I was staying in a B&B on holiday. I had bought some tools at the hardware store on the quay, I told them I would collect them later. I had befriended the elderly son of my landlady; on the final day he asked me if I wanted to go for a walk on the moors, above the reservoir. He shouted at me to come and look at a beautiful pool of water; someone had created an underwater town, with gardens, shops and houses, I thought it was amazing; someone else was present, a woman, but I don't know who it was, I felt her presence more than I saw her. My friend asked me the time of my flight, I looked at my watch, I was late, it was already twelve-thirty. I told my friend we had to go, I would have to leave the tools behind.

Awakening

I was walking, uphill; it was a big wide street in an empty town. A police car's blue lights were flashing up ahead. Bombs were exploding, firecrackers were whizzing and sparking across the floor. The policemen were yelling at me to get out of the way. I turned back. I went into a hostel; grey haired men, in old grey suits, all on their own, each living in their own one single room. I had seen one of the men before; I had met him in a very nice, one might even say a luxury flat, with his well-dressed close friend.

It Feels So Good To Be Coming Home

It feels so good to be coming home

Cold clear morning

Big blue sky

Miles of open road

Charlie Haden & 

Pat Metheny on the stereo

And it feels so good to be coming home

It sure feels good to be coming home

It feels so good to be coming home

Frost is fading

Sheep are grazing

Past those grass filled fields

I hold my smile

As if to seal the afterglow

So it feels so good to be coming home

It sure feels so good to be coming home

It feels so good to be coming home

Buds on trees

Begin to show

It is of life

Of our life to bestow

Cooling smoke goes with the flow

And it feels so good to be coming home

It sure feels so good to be coming home

It feels so good to be coming home

Babe don't go

O babe don't go

Come on home

To those we know

Come on home so we all know

So it feels so good to be coming home

It sure feels so good to be coming home

It feels so good to be coming home

The traffic slows

I'm losing ground

I have the music, there is fair sound

The traffic slows, I'm nearing town

There are the ribbons, I have the gown

And it feels so good to be coming home

It sure feels so good to be coming home

It feels so good to be coming home

I cross the water

That canal to the sea

Yes my girl, we will break free

We have found love

In the deep as fathoms below

So it feels so good to be coming home

It sure feels so good to be coming home

It feels so good to be coming home

We will climb these hills

However steep

We'll lay together

Before we sleep

It is our turn to turn the neap

And it feels so good to be coming home

It sure feels so good to be coming home

It feels so good to be coming home

I drive too fast

I ought to make this time last

All those ghosts

They are the past

Let's live again, let's live half daft

So it feels so good to be coming home

It sure feels so good to be coming home

It feels so good to be coming home

To the land

Of farm and plough

To the land

Of neat know-how 

Yes my love I'm on the brow

And it feels so good to be coming home

It sure feels so good to be coming home

It feels so good to be coming home

Yes my love I've been to Rome

Where chariots raced

As plays were performed

And in the coliseum 

I touched the ancient stone

So it feels so good to be coming home

It sure feels so good to be coming home

It feels so good to be coming home

And it feels so good to be coming home

It sure feels so good to be coming home

So it feels so good to be coming home

It sure feels so good to be coming home

It feels so good to be coming home

And it feels so good to be coming home

It sure feels so good to be coming home

So it feels so good to be coming home

It sure feels so good to be coming home

It feels so good 

So good to be coming home

It feels so good 

So good to be coming home

It feels so good 

So good to be coming home

It feels so good 

So good to be coming home
