Story behind the song

Came about after listening to a friend lament how she couldnt find that perfect someone. A song about the search to find that person, that we all endure, but one that ultimately ends in failure for some of us.. Jim

The chord progression was put together by Gregor, our old rhythm guitarist.  I thought it had great potential as a song I felt it lacked dynamics and direction.  I set about the entire rhythm, chord and guitar voicings and reworked it with a guide bassline.  Donnie (now ex bass player, unfortunately) then put a storming bass line to the song which I feel sets the whole thing off. ..Ken.

Lyrics

she's sinking out of reach
losing out to time
nothing left to say
she's holding on and wont let go
had it all to keep
her world is in her dreams
she's in and out of sleep
slipping out of consciousness

CHORUS
oh no
she's reaching out
but theres no one there to hold
oh no
she's reaching out to hold
reaching out but theres no one there to hold

she wasnt hard to find
cos everybody knows
she's smiling on the outside
but her loneliness feels cold
she searches day and night
but somehow never finds
a lonely heart that matches hers
to love her for all time

CHORUS X 2

she lives her tattooed life
it hides her woven soul
she's got a burning love to give
but its hiding deep below
so now she's left with time
the clocks are running down
she only wants a hand to hold
but the hands are moving time

CHORUS
