Another original song. Lyrics written by Rob, music written by Holly. :)
I recorded this one on my guitar first and then added a synthesised string track (very quiet - try and catch it :)) then recorded myself on camera whilst recording my singing, then added some reverb. Hope you like it. :)

Here are the lyrics...

Gone Away

Once there was youth, there was beauty
There was dancing in the wind
Once there was joy, there was laughter
And there was love, so much love

That has all gone away
It's been taken, it's been stolen
Gone away, all gone away
All the beauty has been broken

Once there was playing in the sun
There was sharing and embracing
Once there was giving, there was feeling
And there was love, so much love

That has all gone away
It's been taken, it's been stolen
Gone away, all gone away
All the beauty has been broken

Once there was hope and a future
There were dreams of things to come
Once there was light beyond the shadow
And there was love, so much love

That has all gone away
It's been taken, it's been stolen
Gone away, all gone away
All the beauty has been broken
Gone away, all gone away
All the beauty has been broken
All the beauty has been broken
All the beauty has been broken
All the beauty has been broken

  • It is amazing that you only beeing 17, have such an incredible voice and put so much heartfelt emotion in the music...keep going!!! O, and how is the Cello doing?

  • Thank you so much musicfee, for your lovely comment.

    I am actually 18 now....and still singing :)

    I'm afraid the Cello is not going so well at the moment as I was learning with a school instrument and have now left :(

    I have bought a couple of other instruments now though...an Appalachian Dulcimer and 2 ukulele's and a low whistle!

    I still hope to continue to play the Cello and learn to play the harp too as soon as I can..... I love all musical instruments :D

    Best wishes,

    Hollyxx

  • This song.. I can't find the words to say how I exactly feel.

    There's so much emotion in your voice.

    You have a voice that can make you both smile and cry.

  • Thankyou so much for your wonderful comment - you are very kind :)

    Best Wishes

  • yes the beauty has been broken, but the beauty is still here, keep singing and keep loving and you'll get love back. God loves everyone so theres love for everyone

  • You have an exquisit, delicate but strong talent, your voice looks, dont know...so authentic. so,.. but so beautiful!!!

    Your an angel....

  • I found this beautiful song on your website and had to come look for it. Thank you for this song. It's just what I've been looking for.

  • Well, I'm well familiar with the mp3s of the series with Rob, which are unique and very excellent, it is cool to read here how you made the video. Mp3s are good for making stuff for the car and player but...nothing can replace the joy of seeing you actually perform. I think I'll be hanging around Simon's 'Song Selector' on your website for a time now! Beautiful!
