A folky pop ballad about life and love
pop folk life
Artist picture
Singer-songwriter, arranger and producer: acoustic contemporary folk but ranging into rock/blues/country/jazz/humour...all very eclectic, I'm afraid!

Lyrics
AA 06 A Time and A Place EAmaj7F#mD A EAmaj7F#mG#mA Life is a mystery life is a flux Life is a puzzle if we get to the crux Life is a journey distorted by luck A struggle to find a smooth way Life's an enigma, Life is a whirl Infant or ancient, boy or girl Look for the secret look for the pearl Search for the rules of the play DAGC G DAGB7B7 G There’s a time to turn inwards a time to let fly A feeling can turn in the blink of an eye Water can boil or freeze in its place Or flow gently down in a passage of grace Instrumental verse Which way are you heading which way will you turn Soaring the heavens or crashing to burn Telling a truth or selling a fake It's both down to luck and the choices you make Love is a penitence love is a joy Love can build up or Love can destroy Love as existence love as a toy Love let's your soul take wing Love is the meaning love is the end Love of a lover love of a friend Love is the thing on which you fear to depend It's a chameleon thing Which way are you heading which way will you turn Soaring the heavens or crashing to burn Telling a truth or selling a fake It's both down to luck and the choices you make In for a penny in for a pound No standing still while Earth’s spinning around Chances are surging out from the sun Wait for the moment catch it and run. Catch it and run?
