An SWR Duet…!

[Fletch]

Lyrics…

And you walk away, through city lights

Down crowded lanes, into night

Walk away, just heading east

Returning, to silent streets

Your judgement, was already cast

Your heart closed, before he asked

You read, but didn’t understand

Devotion offered, by this man

And you walk away, through city lights

Your insecurity, holds you tight

Walk away, believe your lies

Follow paths, where hope dies

His words fleeting, in you mind

Dreams for you both, now declined

Coffee aromas, disappears

You wander back, with lonely tears

Walk Away, Walk Away, Walk Away, Walk Away

To much, to soon

To deep the wounds

And you walk away, through city lights

Step alone, a familiar sight

Walk Away, from life missed

What he offered, you couldn’t risk

You can’t, fix me

Nor set me, free

See the world, through carefree eyes

Travel lands, to distant skies

The freedom, what should of been

True love, you couldn’t believe

Walk Away, Walk Away, Walk Away, Walk Away

(I Can’t Stay, I Can’t Stay, I Can’t Stay, I Can’t Stay)

I’m on my own, path

Just try, and see

With my own, dreams

I need to be free

This is how I remember you

Lost Scared Fragile and Blue

Walk Away, Walk Away, Walk Away, Walk Away

(I Can’t Stay, I Can’t Stay, I Can’t Stay, I Can’t Stay)

Walk Away

(I Can’t Stay)

Very thoughtful writing, nice job 👊

[Fletch]

Thank you DM 🙏

[Bill_Brown]

You are right @Fletch , this is something different coming from the SWR Project 😱 But it definitely has that same thought provoking, emotional pull, and polished musicality (sorry I couldn’t think of a better term), that you guys always put into all of your work👏🤩👏 I really enjoyed listening and I do appreciate this different path👍👍 @JulieI and @stevep , wonderful performances from both of you🤘🎸 and 3 cheers to Lizzie Hill & Fletch🍻 for a great vocal treat🎉😎👏

[Fletch]

Your to kind Bill… 😀

Our Lizzie has got a right proper set of Pipes on her hasn’t she… 😀 She’s a busy girl, but hopefully I’ll we’ll get the chance to something again soon… Maybe I’ll write her a Solo track to tempt her back… 😀

Again, thank you my friend… 🙏

Ah ah ah… you know what happens when you give a mouse a cookie…..

Lizzy probably deserves it though, in all fairness.

Lovely. This SWR fan remains hooked.

[Fletch]

Mouse Cookies…! Umm… It gets fat…?

[jumpinjeff]

good guess but no, Corduroy gets fat from too many cookies.

[Fletch]

Cords…!!! Really…!!!

OK the future… (Trust me on this, they’ve got an expandable waist band…!)

Courdoroy is a person, or more precisely a bear. Not a pooh.

Have I seen you wearing those trousers or, hardly trousers when made up of Pants eh? Would those be called Trouser Pants, or Pant Trousers?

[Fletch]

“Have I seen you wearing those trousers“… SWR Uniform Jeff…! I’ve even bought Stevie & Julie some… I don’t think they wear them though…! 😂

Just catching up on posts so missed this when you posted it but lovely sound to this one and agree that the mix of vocals works beautifully. Pardon my ignorance but are you UK or Stateside (or somewhere else entirely)? I should know this piece of TAC lore I guess but intrigued because it’s not always easy to tell from a singing voice. Lizzie certainly sounds very English. Darren 🤘😎🎸

We’re just 3 TAC members that started learning, playing and having fun together a few years back… (I say ‘learning‘, @JulieI and @stevep were further along their musical paths than I and rather accomplished already. I was the buffoon that did know which way up to hold a Guitar or how to plug a Mic in, fortunately they’re both very tolerant ).

And yep, I’m in the UK, Jules is in Canada and Stevie lives in her basement, the States ( If he learns to start playing nicely with the other children, he might be allowed soon )

Oh and Mad Lizzie has sung on 3 or 4 SWR tracks over the years and lives just down the road from me.

Glad you liked the track my friend… Loads more Originals and some well dodgy covers on Soundcloud…
