Description:
This is one song from a collection my friend, Jordan, and I have called, "Dean Street." It's our "virtual" album and has been so for years. Maybe it'll get legs in cyberspace. Drum loops are Apple's. Oh, and thank goodness for Dent Du Midi! I brought most of the tracks in using that and Finale. I'll probably do another version with better vocals.

Lyrics:
The plants are waking
Stretching, aching as the sun comes up
I clear away the dust and dirt from my coffee cup

The bed is warm
But you’re so cold and old is what I’m feeling
Fair is fair but you’re not there when I need you

I’m sore, you’re bored,
And I just can’t get out
You’ve locked the door

I stop and stare,
The room is bare of the warmth which you once gave it
My eyes are numb, my brain is dumb to your holding

The phone it rings
And silly things just fly right through my ears
Fair is fair, but you’re not there when i need you

I’m sore, you’re bored,
And I just can’t get out
You’ve locked the door

I don’t know why I set myself up
Just to have you knock me down
You play your games behind my back
I’m just your clown
I’ve just to turn around
turn around
turn around

The moon is rising
It’s not surprising you’re still lost and found
I turn another page around in your open book

The words are there
But I can’t bear to be your silent burden
Fair is fair, but where, oh where, did I lose you

I’m sore, you’re bored,
And I just can’t get out
You’ve locked the door

touching! &mdash 10/14/04 - 11:01:40 PM
Love the poetry in your lyrics. The melody is haunting but
the production can be little smoother. 8-6-7-7. This
song has the potential to become a classic given the right
treatment.

Great lyrics &mdash 08/23/05 - 07:45:10 AM
I love the lyrics but do not like the effects on them. As
another listener pointed out this is very Beatleish. Nice!
