Description
With Kavin Allenson (aka "kavin."), who sent this music to me after using one of my instrumental tracks as the backdrop for one of his wonderful guitar pieces ("Nectarina" can be found at alonetone.com/kavin.), and this song just floated to the surface. Written and recorded for the RPM Challenge 2009.
In memory of my father, Anthony, who died suddenly in 1988.

Lyrics
Breathe shallow deep
Until life is spent and reeling
Drink in and release
You can't always choose your moment
Hold something back for me
A keepsake so small but knowing
It's something more complete
Sometimes cool but keep on flowing
Take me back to the moment
When you lost your breath
And I will help you find it
And you'll be stronger yet
Amidst the strangeness of what you feel
The moment destined to make you yield
I will find you, I'll be beside you still
I'll bind you
And I will help you breathe
Nothing but a shadow
And often less than that
We wander through a garden
Never quite touching hands
Confess my pretty skin is ageing
While yours just fades
You've got to watch our lady nature
She gives she takes away
Take me back to the moment
Before the long black dress
And I will speed us passed those flowers
So we can share our breath
Amidst the strangeness of what you feel
The moment destined to make you yield
I will find you, I'll be beside you still
I'll bind you
I will help you breathe
Until life is spent and reeling
Drink in and release
You can't always choose your moment
Hold something back for me
A keepsake so small but knowing
It's something more complete
Sometimes cool but keep on flowing
Take me back to the moment
When you lost your breath
And I will help you find it
And you'll be stronger yet
Amidst the strangeness of what you feel
The moment destined to make you yield
I will find you, I'll be beside you still
I'll bind you
And I will help you breathe
Nothing but a shadow
And often less than that
We wander through a garden
Never quite touching hands
Confess my pretty skin is ageing
While yours just fades
You've got to watch our lady nature
She gives she takes away
Take me back to the moment
Before the long black dress
And I will speed us passed those flowers
So we can share our breath
Amidst the strangeness of what you feel
The moment destined to make you yield
I will find you, I'll be beside you still
I'll bind you
I will help you breathe

Nice phrasing. A captured moment... Nicely done.
