This is a sea shanty that just came to me out of nowhere while I was playing around with some harmonics. It's performed by Margaret & Kristoph. Words & Music- Jack Sparks
lyrics: See the ship out on the sea a way-strong wind has cut her free The Annabelle, she's washed a-ground Down, donnie-donnie-donnie down
Neptune's arm flung them aside no one to hear their final cries Every Christian man, he died, Down, donny-donny-donny down
CHORUS Down, donny-donny-donny down, Down, donny-donny-donny down, Down, donny-donny-donny down donny-donny-donny down
In Bristol port she waits for me, the fairest lass ye ever see, to sixteen fathoms I am bound Down, donny-donny-donny down
Oh, Katherine, I'll 'home no more never again touch England's shore, to curse the sea forever more, Down, donny-donny-donny down
CHORUS (instrumental interlude-)
(Male,"Donny...)
Female:
Oh, Jack, my love, where can ye be? Too long I've searched the empty sea, Til my own death to thee I'm bound, Down, donny-donny-donny down"
CHORUS

This song was inspired a friend's (who is now happily married) comment over coffee. I had it translated into French as I thought it would sound great which it does. Denis D'Aoust arranged & performs it here. Copyright 2007 Sparks/ D'Aoust. All Rights Reserved. Here are the lyrics in English-I keep hearing fairytales But I don't know where to put them Happy endings that have failed Leave me wondering what went wrong
All the songs they talk of love (they talk of love) All the lovers have a song (have a song) I have no castle made of dreams (oo-oo-oo-oo) I'm not a prince, I don't belong (I don't belong)
CHORUS She could've been the girl, She could've been the love But it's just a fairytale That she left me thinking of
Babe, it's not a fairytale (How do I know?) Take my hand oh, Babe- it's real (How can I be sure?) Like the song I sing for you (Should I love again?) And the love, the love I feel (It hurts too much to feel)
It's gonna be a love It's gonna be a treasure Babe, come and share our love Let's share this life together
INSTRUMENTAL BREAK
Yes, our song's a song of love (Yes, now I know) And it keeps me holding on (Now I can be sure) Babe, I want to share your dream (I can love again) I need your love, I'm not that strong (I can trust enough to feel)
It's gonna be a love It's gonna be a treasure Babe, come and share our love Let's share this life together
Oh, I believe in fairytales And my heart knows where to put them Now that I have found your love... Our fairytale will come true.

In 1969, John Kay & Jerry Edmonton of Steppenwolf wrote an anti-war anthem that is, sadly, as relevant today as it was thirty years ago.

Music & Lyrics by Jack Sparks. In this song I tried to capture the magic of a typical Sunday morning in Balboa Park, San Diego. And the minstrels play and the ladies talk of the lovely day On a Balboa Park Sunday And the lovers roll on the hills of green And the children laugh to see such a sceneAnd the Spreckels plays in the distance clear And you turn to see who called you, near REFRAIN: Balboa Park on a Sunday, run in the sun and enjoy, Live in the light, bright sunshine, free in the wind and the sky And the people sing and dance all day til the starlight bright steals the time away And the sky departs and leaves for space And the music leaves this enchanted place.

Will-o'-the-wisp he comes burnin' through the trees Dark as the night, hear the raven cry on the breeze
Today- he's gonna steal your life away, today- he's gonna steal your dreams away, today- he's gonna steal your tomorrow away To-day-ay To-day-ay Today...
