Print Version


There's no time for dull regrets
no-one underwrites your debts.
No satisfaction guaranteed,
but this much I believe
we make the lives we lead.

Best foot forward, face the day
as the moment slips away
like a whisper on the wind;
the tide turns as it breaks...
Given time
we lead the lives we make.

The curve that we trace in time
a shape of our own design.

Say it's over when it's done
did you learn to touch someone?
Long ago and far away,
voices linger on...
long ago, just yesterday,
caught in the clay of material need.
Given time
we make the lives we lead.

Given time
we make the lives we leave.

(PH - Piano, Guitar, Vox;
David Lord - Strings, Wind, Keyboard

    "I just can't see why you can't see what I mean,

    If not now, then certainly sooner or later..."

    on collision course...."
  • The Spirit
    "Such distance to the tips of the fingers,
    the ganglion loom jerks inside;
    the body grows steadily stranger
    but the spirit won't be denied...."
  • In Slow Time

    till show time
    ... the show goes on
    Dance the dance..."

    "Flying Blind
    I alway forget how crazy things are
    so sometimes it catches me off my guard
    when they make sense...."
  • German Overalls
    "Manheim; rainy Saturday with no money nor friend,
    only Tequila can end the boredom.
    Try to reach London for a pocket of hope;
    we're children, we grope in the dark...."
  • Slender Threads
    "you were wearing your battle dress.
    I really must confess
    that I shed a silent smile for you -
    it had really blown my mind,..."
