Story Behind The Song

about my frustration at a bandmember being inflexible about my songs and yet my realisation that to be a band and a team we all need to give a little and co-operate - damn it! in a nutshell - individual differences and the need to accomodate them.

Song Description

funky rock with bluesey girl lead voca,. sax solo in middle 8, building final verse into queen-like cataclysmic ending - big big harmonies.

Lyrics

v1
You got eyes like angel feathers
They catch the sprinkles from the sunlight
But it can all come down with a thud to the ground whenever
You step across, we step across, this place

v2
Never strangers met together
Bound together silver thread
But keep your eyes down ? there?s a trick going down
When you step across we step across this place

chorus
And I see you in other places where wild things grow
And you run free-er than the breezes I know, I know
And you say ?I?m living on spirit, my will will show
So don?t try putting me in places I won?t go, I won?t go?

v3
Let me sit you in the sunshine
Evade the darkness for a while
And I will grow strong to a different song
If you step across we step across this place

And I see?

Little do I know where the wild things grow
No more can I see how you picture me
But when it all comes down there?s a place to be found whenever
I reach across to touch an angel?s face
