lyrics
"You Still Are" by Brenda Carsey
This is it, this is all we know
Surrounded by fools, how can one expect to grow?
Keep making your judgements, keep putting on a show
Keep separating yourself, how can you expect to grow?
So much ignorance, no reason or rhyme
Oh so many wasted days, we drank away our prime
Dreams and ambitions crushed by the hands of time, yah
Oh like said, dreams and ambitions crushed by the hands of time
But look into my eyes
You see that you still
You still are my child
Oh you still
You still are
Another rainy day in that head of yours
You’re drowning in your thoughts, you can’t wake any more
Oh, stop singling yourself out, it’s time you figure out
We’re all one, so baby come on!
Oh you still
You still are my child
Oh you still
You still are
You still are
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, ohh
Yeah, oh my daddy, yeah, oh my sugar
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, oh my brother, yeah, oh my sister
Yeah, Ooo
This is it, this is all we know
Surrounded by fools, how can one expect to grow?
Oh, oh oh

Feedback time, after a few months listening. I cannot decide between Stories and Melting, I enjoy them both equally. Great tracks. I like the recording and mix.Looking forward to your next offerings. Thank you and I wish you every success. Tim Setchfield-Smith
