Well I saw your heart in the wishing well,, Well I saw your heart

and I’m not counting the feelings you hide
and your not counting the tears that I cried
we made promises deep down inside to be true to be true to be true

Well I saw our words in the wishing well,, Well I saw our words
ooh only time will tell
and I’m not counting as memories dissolve
and your not counting as conflicts resolve
we made promises life would evolve , we’re be true we’re be true

Some make choice to write the songs
Some lift their voices to right the wrongs and some sleep
Some decide it’s not their road, while other pass with a heavy load
some laugh, and some weep
NEVER STEERED THE BOAT
NEVER CHOSE THE WAY
‘Like’ if you agree
NEVER MADE THE TIME
ALWAYS STOLE THE DAY
IN SOMEONE ELSES DREAM
some make buckets that they can cross
but nothing doing to replace the loss when they die
Immortality sink or swim
lights are burning lights grow dim in the big sky

Andy – piano, electric guitar,melltron.

pay attention you riding so high
you so bold you think you might fly
no fear of falling no chance you might die
and we’re all going back to the ground

pay attention you pretty young thing
world’s your oyster you princess, you king
hold on tight as your world’s revolving
as we’re all going back to the ground
yeh we’re all going back to the ground

We’re all going back

pay attention you watching the fire
lighting up by the greed and desire
feeding the few as the flames getting higher
now we’re all going back to the ground
yeh we’re all going back to the ground

We’re all going back

you can fight or surrender
it’s gonna take you in the end
you can lie, but you can’t buy your way out
of the splendour of the carriage and the plumage
the ashes and the sewage
and we’re all going back to the ground
the clocks stop, we wind
the dream stops, we find a new truth a new day
a good love, a better way

and if you die…then I die.

INTRO OH OH na na na na na

Gonna stop the doing, to make some precious time for being

Going take some time for singing, dancing, trusting and believing

2.Gonna let the grass grow under my feet

Gonna take some time out to listen out to the flowers heart beat

Gonna stop this trying ,to get too much done much too soon

Instead I’m gonna throw some kisses at the sun, maybe do some howling at the moon ….2 BAR GAP

Vocals, percussion and glockenspiel -Gitika

Guitars and Keys -Andy

Birds that sing together stay together

I sing with some I know and some are strangers

Then I light another candle

For the future, past, the now and then And we sing again.

Birds that fly together , stay together

We fill the empty skies in heavy weather

Then we Light another candle

For the friends we lost along the way and we sing again

THE DARKEST DAY THE LONGEST NIGHT TOOK ME 24 MOONS TO FEEL ALRIGHT

BUT I’M GONNA LIGHT ANOTHER CANDLE FOR YOU

THE LONGEST NIGHT THE DARKEST DAY TOOK ME 24 MOONS

TIL I FELT OK TIL I FELT OK WITHOUT YOU ……TIL I FELT OK

Birds that fly together , stay together

We fill the empty skies in heavy weather

Then we Light another candle

For the friends we lost along the way and we rise again

CHORUS

and then the seasons cheer and the boughs of holly

and I find it really hard to be jolly

All I do is remember every year before

And we hand the lights make sense of the dark

I feel a flicker, feel a spark OF HOPE….

CHORUS

TRACK 11 -JANUARY – written, recorded, played sung mixed produced etc by Gitika Partington in her bedroom in Holloway London.

Everytime I think of you

I think of all the things that we’ve been through

The ups, the downs, the knocks

The open roads the inevitable road blocks.

Everytime I call your name I remember so much joy so much pain

We paper the walls then we watch the cracks

2 steps forward (the 1 step back the 1 step back

2 steps forward the 1 step back oh ) x2

Every time we lose our way , I wonder why it seems so hard to stay

We good we brave we bold

We fly so high and then we crash into a black hole

Everytime we start again

Things are better for a while and then they’re just the same

We paper the walls then we watch the cracks 2 steps forward the one step back

CHORUS

TRACK 12 – JANUARY – STOP FOR THE KISS – written by Gitika Partington and Andy McCrorie-Shand, recorded and mixed by Gitika in Holloway London- extra vocals -Andy
