![]() Till The Sun Turns Black (2006) [ larger cover art ] |
Don't let your mind get weary and confused
Your will be still, don't try
Don't let your heart get heavy child
Inside you there's a strength that lies
Don't let your soul get lonely child
It's only time, it will go by
Don't look for love in faces, places
It's in you, that's where you'll find kindness
Be here now, here now
Be here now, here now
Don't lose your faith in me
And I will try not to lose faith in you
Don't put your trust in walls
'Cause walls will only crush you when they fall
Be here now, here now
Be here now, here now

| darrio (Sydney, Australia) | Posted: Apr 04, 2013 - 18:36 CaptainPicard - the rest of the album is great. In the same vein, but with some songs that are a little more lively too. |
| ewisor | Posted: Mar 29, 2013 - 22:14 Intro reminds me of Brain Eno - and that is a good thing! |
| CaptainPicard (The Netherlands) | Posted: Mar 27, 2013 - 14:21 How is the rest of this album? |

There might be one or two passing phrases which have a fleeting resemblance, but the chords and melodies of the two songs are very different. Of course, it's generally in the ear of the listener. |
