about

I think I wrote this in Cheltenham in about 2004, but I'm not sure. It was the first song I recorded on my Tascam 8 track at any rate. However, I didn't release it on Final Whistle or Carruthers Gets Bashed as I thought the production was so bad. By the time I got to By The Banks Of The A350 I realised it was sonically superior to everything else I'd released! That doesn't say much really, but there you go. One of many, many songs written for a girl who hasn't heard most of them.

lyrics

Falling

I've been climbing up the walls
I've been feeling two foot small
I've been down upon my knees
I've been drowning in your seas
I've been walking in the park
I've been sleeping till it's dark
I've been writing you a song
I've been waiting here too long

I climbed up tried to see
I climbed up but now I'm falling

Like a room without a door
Like a song without a score
Like a boat upon the sand
Like a gig without a band
Like a tree without a bird
Like a letter without words
Like a race without a start
Like a man without a heart

I climbed up tried to see
I climbed up but now I'm falling
