Well, I've been 'fraid of changin'

'Cause I've built my life around you

And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking

Racing around to come up behind you again

The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older

Shorter of breath and one day closer to death

O' beautiful, for spacious skies

Now those skies are threatening

They're beating plowshares into swords

For this tired old man that we elected king

Armchair warriors often fail

And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales

The lawyers clean up all details

Since daddy had to lie

Spitfire thin and strung like a violin, I was

Yours was the face with a grace from a different age

But you were the sun in my Sunday morning

You were the sun in my Sunday morning telling me never to go

So I'll live on the smile and move down the aisle of the last bus home

Your face just ghostly in the smoke

It's the heart afraid of breaking

That never learns to dance

It's the dream afraid of waking

That never takes the chance

It's the one who won't be taking

Who cannot seem to give

And the soul, afraid of dying

That never learns to live

E17 sang Stay Another Day. It was accompanied by a smaltzy video and it became No 1 at Christmas. The sad thing is it isn’t a romantic love song - it is cry of pain after Tony Mortimer’s brother’s suicide, wondering what he would do with his brother had they one more day together.

The song lands harder when you know that.

Feeling guilty, worried

Waking from tormented sleep

This old love has me bound

But the new love cuts deep

If I choose now, I'll lose out

One of you has to fall

But I need you, and you

So goodbye to my best friend ever

I can't believe you're gone forever

I came up to find you today

'Cause I finally found all the words that I needed to say

But a dark thought got there first

Dark thought did its worst

And that's what really hurts

A dark thought got there first

Smiling faces, sometimes they don't tell the truth.

Smiling faces, tell lies and I've got proof

Beware, beware of the pat on the back, it might just hold you back

Beware, beware of the hand shake that hides a snake

I'm telling you smiling faces sometime they don't tell the truth

Smiling faces tell lies and I've got proof.

All transitory

'...But I'm not the man

He goes free

As I wait on the row for the man to test the rope

He'll slip around my throat

And silence me

On the day he was tried no witness testified

Nothing but evidence, not hard to falsify

His own confession was a prosecutor's prize

Made up of fear, of rage and of outright lies

But I'm not the man'

'Élégie' by talented French musician Ezéchiel Pailhès. A delicate love confession?, pledge?, acknowledgement? 🧐🤔 using the grammatical masculine gender. Fellow Fabbers who can read French will hopefully appreciate the beautiful craft in the lyrics. There are English translations available on many lyrics sites, although a little bit of the subtlety does get lost in translation. 🎵🎶🕺🏼

Burnham on sea

From a Brummie singer song writer hero.

"Goodbye, Hans

I'll maybe come again some other time

Because somehow

That grave that's yours could easily be mine

You see, there's wars, Hans

Men are trained to fight each other still

It goes on, Hans

It always has, it seems it always will

So, I must go now

The young men milling 'round are making so much noise

And as you remember

When they're together boys will always just be boys

Unlike you, Hans

They've never been a nations broken toys

So, goodbye

I'll maybe come again some other time "
