Time passes Darkness returns Memories fading My heart burns, my heart burns Snowflakes fall settle and shine Cold is the Winter Sadness is mine Sadness, sadness is mine Orange glow Majestic skies Candles sparkle in my eyes Candles sparkle in my eyes The shortest day The longest night The seasons change My love shines bright My love my love my love My love shines bright

Hold the door open, come right on inside Don't stay away now, our love is too wide The fire burns brightly, the room's always warm Come shelter come rest From the eye, the eye of the storm The best of my days, I give to you all My love my music my lifeline, my call, my call Smile for tomorrow, remember the past Let memories linger, the time goes so fast The friends of our lives will help us to grow When they may leave us, We never, we never will know The best of my days, I give to you all My love my music my lifeline, my call, my call Come shelter from the eye of the storm Come shelter from the eye of the storm The storm the storm Come shelter

I've cried over you, I've tried over you And heaven knows I've compromised over you Bombarding my dreams with a touch almost real Get out of my head You've played my last song, you stayed much too long And only we know why it all went so wrong Get out of my mind and leave me in peace Get out of my head Move on, move on, don't wonder why Move on, move on, don't fret don't cry A fool who knows she's just been used A fool whose heart is so easily bruised You laughed in my face, I now know my place And you couldn't care less if I've fallen from grace So leave me alone to sleep through the night Get out of my head Get out of my head Get out of my head Get out get out get out get out.

The people the places the day never ends The silence of strangers the day never ends Her soft leaves are falling and darkness is calling City life's crawling the day never ends The trouble the traffic the day never ends The noise of the neighbours the day never ends Her sweet scents arouse me her brightness surrounds me The city it crowds me the day never ends The tired the lonely the day never ends The squalor of homeless the day never ends Her branches embrace me her roots will efface me The city life drains me the day never ends Y bobl a’r llefydd ni ddaw’r dydd i ben Distawrwydd dieithriaid ni ddaw’r dydd i ben Disgyn mae’i dail, ei thywyllwch yn galw Bywyd yn cropian daw’r dydd fyth i ben Yr helynt a’r traffig ni ddaw’r dydd i ben Sŵn y cymdogion ni ddaw’r dydd i ben yr aroglau melys a’i thywyllwch o’n cwmpas Bwrlwm ddi-ddiwedd daw’r dydd byth i ben Daw’r dydd byth i ben

I will be your rhythm but I'll not be your blues I'll never abuse you I'll not be your muse Augment you and phrase you But I'll not slur your name Diminish your ego I'll not take the blame Notate me and play me Staccato and shame me Resolve me resolve me resolve me I will be your discord but I'll not be your song Contrary in motion But not for too long An interval waiting With just one last repeat Transpose me or trill me I'll bow to your beat Notate me and play me Staccato and shame me Resolve me resolve me resolve me

about

Mary Bourne London, UK

I'm a singer, songwriter based in SW London. I love to collaborate with like minded musicians and always feel braver and happier when I'm making music with others. When I'm not writing music, I'm leading choirs, making podcasts, swimming outdoors or paddling in my kayak. Life is short; make memories and make music. ... more
