Story Behind the Song
Another folk Blockbuster by the boys. This was the first track which had no tune and was the first true musical collaboration where each band memeber contributed fully. Again done in one take with no overdubs by Jools Parkin of Shabbyroad mobile. This is Marks first recording of the whistle, an instrument to which he considers himself a beginner. Make your own mind up. The rest of the band have
Lyrics
OVER TO YOU
Chorus;
When a dream looks right but feels all wrong,
When the truth is so close that the focus has gone,
When the feeling turns, when it rolls over me
Then its over to you, or its over for me.
When you dance for the moment and move with the flow,
When a sudden embrace leaves faces aglow,
When the night is too short for the love in your heart,
Move into the feeling and tear me apart.
When the fight brings you down, when the wound is raw,
When laughters a lover who greets you no more,
When the night is so long theres no hope of day
Move into the feeling and roll me away.
When restless distraction hungers your thought,
When the urge for departures a dream to be caught,
When your hope for the day turns its back on the town,
Move into the feeling and take me on down.
When you re shaken by fancy and can t sleep at night,
When everyday motions a cause for delight,
When the wane of the moon brings a tear to your eye,
Move into the feeling and teach me to fly.
When angels of air make the grave open wide,
When time makes a standstill on every side,
When a smile is the comfort the last moment sends
Move into the feeling, and love never ends.
