you'll probably laugh, but ... I wonder how this topic got into "Waters" section instead of "General music discussion"...

this is what I wrote yesterday and today:

I KNOW I'LL SEE YOUR FACE AGAIN

1.Ev'ry day is the same.

Ev'ry day is a shame.

Ev'ry day is grey,
but still I stay.

2. Ev'ry day is a grave.

This grave has no name.

This name has no face,

so how is that a grace?

bridge:. a It's been six years,

b. Still you're in my dreams.
Ch.:a.Well I look outside,
But the streets don't care
If I have something inside to hide.
b.Well this life won't work,
So I think I'll just walk.
I hope I'll see your face again.
I'm living on a hope again.

3. I'm thinking again,

My head is a plane.

It's aching again,
Might be a migrene, but what I know you're in my head again.

4. Grey-grey grass,

Long-long path,

Things move fast,
they had colors in my past.

bridge:a.

b.
Ch.:a. Well I lok aside,
But the folks don't mind
If I have something inside to hide.
b.Well this life won't work,
So I just keep walking
In hope to see your face again.
I'm livin'g on a hope again.

improvisation with a soft hard-rock guitar solo

Ch.: Come stay by my side,
Then ev'rything's alright.
That's why I love you, baby dame.
And I know I'll see your face someday.
I know I'll see your face again. (repeat this line as much as you want)

chorus music - from "The Verve's "The drugs won't work"; verse and bridge music in the same tones/tonality.

by me, moom aka Moonchild aka Andrei Kiisler

I showed a couple of poems to my ex-guitar teacher and a band that was practising at the time (some metal/hard-rock stuff, quite nice), and they really liked them, and he told me he could give them to a composer :D
Today I'll show the same to my keyboard player, who I'm forming Astral Fire with, - hope he likes them and composes music (so I can choose between two versions ;) )

why thank you :D
you know, it started when I visited the Astral Piper community (it's here http://www.sydbarrett.org/news.htm), there I go the idea. Also there's a long-time fan playing Syd and his songs, and I think he calls himself Piper or something...
I thought it over ad concluded that AF will be a band that is:
1.interested is space-rock
2.telling truth (like, it lightens)
3.hot

and btw anyone I showed these lyrics liked them and two of them agreed to give me some music material for the lyrics :D

meanwhile, I wrote some sketches for the new songs, mostly in Syd's style :)
