Joe Fielding sent me his lyric, I changed it a little, and wrote this tune for it. Tommy Hellsten did the mix.
Stan loves music, is published (EMI/Capitol), and has experience performing on radio and TV when it was live in the good old days. These days he's just writing
Songwriter of pop, country, inspirational songs. I like to write. I travel a lot to Asia...so my music may have an Asian influence.
Lyrics
Plains of Hope
Copyright Joe Fielding and Stan Loh 04-12-10
Verse 1
The days are slow,
The nights are fast,
Outlook on life,
Is overcast.
If we're the makers,
Let's use our brains,
If we can do anything,
We could build plains ...
Chorus
The Plains of Hope ...
Plains where the dying,
Plains where the sick,
Are no longer crying,
Where there's no hell,
No evil, no pain, no chains ...
Verse 2
If we could take back time,
Fix what we broke,
Our skies will unwind,
The lies we spoke.
No one must give up.
No one say never.
In our quest for justice,
In our quest for hope ...
Chorus
The Plains of Hope ...
Plains where the dying,
Plains where the sick,
Are no longer no crying,
Where there's no hell,
No evil, no pain, no chains ...
Bridge
For the sake of our children,
For the sake of the trees, bees, and geese,
For the sake of the poor people looking for peace ...
Chorus
Build Plains of Hope ...
Plains where the dying,
Plains where the sick,
Are no longer crying,
Where there's no hell,
No evil, no pain, no chains ...
Repeat Chorus
Soulful music that I really appreciate. Very heartfelt and original. Love the Spanish guitar sound!
