about

I’ve always found it strange and a little sad that all too often we leave telling people how we feel about them, and the impact that they’ve had on our lives, until they are no longer with us and have passed away. The song ‘Living Eulogy’ is a reminder to speak now or forever hold our peace. The song ends with a musical crescendo immediately followed by the entire track running backwards, like on a tape machine rewinding at high speed. This sound represents time rushing by and potentially running out, acting as a gentle nudge to tell those you love that you love them, before the opportunity is gone…

lyrics

Living Eulogy

You’re the special someone
The puzzles missing part
A bolt of lightning striking
The deadwood of the heart

I’ve been hanging on your every word
Spinning to your favourite song
Taking cover underneath your wings
You’ve been turning my broken lights on

It’s impossible to sum up
In just a few words
Quite what you mean to me
You’re the biggest inspiration
To this mortal life
Occupying my every dream

I’ve been hanging on your every word
Spinning to your favourite song
Taking cover underneath your wings
You’ve been turning my broken lights on
