Spring scent laden trees - a last flourish for you
all life begins again - all except for you
each step I take reminds me - of another year of ours
the child's laughter - the child's tears - the child's love
I would have loved you more
I'd love to stop it but your life has just walked out
Echoes in this street - echoes in this room - and in my head
the whole world has settled down respectfully for you
no calls, no words - just the two of us and our pain
it's over now and I must never come this way again

two of these songs were on a compilation called Return of the Beat Menace--Caught in the Motion and Catch Me I'm Falling. I'm pretty sure these are different versions of those songs, and it is great to hear other songs from this era. Dennis Draeger
