Dave's Random Song From the Catalogue Offering #31: Bough

 

I have all my songs listed in a spreadsheet which I randomize. Today's shuffle landed on a song called Bough released as a single on 01 OCT 21 and also appears on my album Many Faces.

Here are the lyrics. The song is about loss and longing.

Bough
By David Husted

V1

Underneath a funeral wreath
Rests a letter beneath the sill to read, but I can't breathe ;
as the world spins around I break-down

But the me that breathes,  is not the me that feels, 
The ache, of a groaning tree
Let me be with that me;  where

I remember the

Ch1
warm breeze
Upon the bough with your warm heat
Held by a branch with those green, green leaves
Out on a limb
We kissed 
We lived
I'd give anything for this

V2
Patterns lock and dissolve,  shaped by a world that is gone
Chaos in the amethyst; reflecting 
Placed next to the beryl ring and necklace of pearls you see
Inside a coffin; they mean nothing at all without

Your eyes, and your smile, and your mind

Together here in this

Ch2
warm breeze
Upon the bough by your warm heat
Held by a branch by those green, green leaves
Out on a limb
We kissed; We lived
