Lied wat stamt uit eerste periode ‘Hole and Corner’, (hippie-peace band) de tijd dat we veel in Nijmegen / Doornroosje speelden toen er nog ruim achterover werd ‘geleund’, bij optredens en niet als haringen in een ton op en neer sprongen (die in hun jeugd ook weer geen aandacht kregen thuis…
Faith Losing Skin
All boys and girls come right up here
don’t gonna think I wanna change your mind it hurt my ears yeah yeah yeah
It hurt my ears
It’s gong on too long
It just can’t go on
Are you still waiting for the new born King
are you still hungry if you will win
nobody’s thinking no no no you get along I’m not kidding
peace will never come
Before you die you got to choose
all for loving or your lover to loose
Who’s gonna make it all down the drain
You’ll have your way
Ah faith losing skin…mmmm

WHEN THE RIVER WON’T FLOW
Far is the way from home
when the river won’t flow
When the river won’t flow wow wow wow
when the river won’t flow
I call up my girl, it’s been too long
living in a world love won’t grow
too much living you won’t regret, after all
talk to the river but it won’t go back, you once belong
Children play in dead-end streets
win the day, make ends meet
Losing time on to-morrow’s feet
now that it’s gone oh boy! ai ai ai
Far is the way from home….
Look around your world, look up in the air
maybe we’ll share mmm some day
some day when the river calls your name
still babe, look to Heaven it won’t complain
your prayer
You are like space, around me babe
seeing you, all I face
without love I can’t go on
don’t let it slip away….ai ai ai

DARLING BLUE (red flag turns up black)
I woke up this morning at six o’clock
the day in hours, the night unlock
no more bad luck, I better wake up
I gotta ease myself my heart knocks ‘aw aw’
Soon is a long time, it’s been hard, cool and dark
darling blue I wake up because you tell the news you had to leave, the red flag turns up black (red flag turns up black)
You and I been through quiet a mess, oh honey, it’s all attached, anything immortelle, find someone, someone else,
A red flag turns up black
Love is the way I won’t give up
the light in my head, is burning me flat
come on Darling Blue, all those talking brave, dreaming strange who’s in the shade what to do, I didn’t know how to be one with you, a red flag turns up black,
(red flag turns up black)
Somebody, can’t you hear, she’s making love the way death comes near, so any time she will do this crime, it fuddles my mind, it cuddles for a while, red flag turns up black
Every morning I gotta face the world
I belong to you so don’t hurt
Come on darling blue life’s never secure oh I’m searching for you and me, oh when ever I’m wrong you know it will come
you know my baby it won’t be very long
a red flag turns up black, red flag turns up black
