A short stroll beside the Thames at Tilbury Fort and a pint of something thick and rural in the World's End pub, with the End of the World on my mind. What could I do but to put it in song? Someone once wrote; Wrote these words to let the darkness through Hiding here within my chords is nothing new Dying for my cause is the way of love But I will leave my song for you
That feels about the sentiment, to be honest, so here is my song for you.
Walk with me by the river side
come take my hand in the bright December light
I'll hold you close, I'll warm your heart
With the tales of our times
And the tales yet to come
If you'll walk with me
Sit with me in a flagstoned bar
With a fire burning near
You with a juice and me a beer
And we'll talk it over, where our love got lost
To say Goodbye and walk away
Would be at too great a cost
So just sit with me
Think of me, think of me fondly
For I am the night, you the stars that give me light
Think of me in the summer and the winter
Spring and mellow Autumn too
Love me all through
Is all I ask of you
Stay with me, make an end to tears
Our future burns with a fire, we've been fanning through the years
Take a look inside, see how your heart fits mine
Believe in what could be, see how our dreams entwine
If you stay with me
Richard, this is incredible, the lyrics, the music and one of your best vocals, outstanding

@jugnutgut Thanks very much. Had most of this song in my head by the time I'd walked six hundred yards and had half a pint. I love it when they come like that!

Hey Michael, that was a rapid viewing, I hadn't even seen it myself! Was a pretty low time writing this, but I'll be here, got lots to upload the next month or so, including the one i precociously quoted from, (now that's a sad 'un.) Might try a few more through the 8 track like this one to fill the sound out a bit, and keep my ugly mug off the screen. Thanks for watching, my friend.
