Another collaboration completed - this one evokes memories of the old days with stellar contributions from MCS superstars:
Bill - with fabulous guitar parts, which helped to set up the groove, and with some blinding solos.
J - lovely keys parts which adorned the overall sound, as well as the cool part during the breakdown.
NickT - super job on the mix, this was a tough nut to crack, but he aced it.
You Matter So Much To Me (c) SmithC/AndyG 2020, 2023
You got to look into these eyes
Before you say goodbye
You say you’re out of love oh no
You set my soul on fire
We played with burning desire
Couldn’t fan the flames somehow
The wind will blow Whisper your name
Into my ears
The rain will fall Fall endlessly
Wash away the tears
I feel like I’ve been blown away
Into this vast emptiness
I feel like that I’ve blown away
In another life another place
You got us separate lives
Could have lived in paradise
If you really wanted love of mine
I’m trying to get over this pain
Trying to compose me again
Trying to reach out for love of mine
The wind will blow Whisper your name
Into my ears
The rain will fall Fall endlessly
Washing away the tears
I feel like I’ve been blown blown away
Into this vast emptiness
I feel like that I’ve blown away
In another life another place
