Time and LIfe. Life and Time.
Playing around with ideas and thought to write a two-chord song. This is what devlopped.
a one man show
Hi. My name is Douglas Murphy and I hale from Montreal Quebec Canada.
I have been playing around this 'craft' for a while now and have always enjoyed getting my 'stuff' out there.
Lately I have been playing around with AI generated vocals and melodies. I hope you enjoy what I have to offer.
Story behind the song
As an exercise to write a two-chord song, this is what I came up with.
Lyrics
Time and Life. Life and Time
[2023/12/07]
Intro:
[V]
Time has taken its toll, left me stranded, alone.
I'm still here, you're not there. Why were you taken, taken where?
[V]
Life. Can be so unkind. When it leaves someone behind.
You meet, fall in love. To the one, you're forever thinking of.
[C]
For those who are gone, as far as I know.
Now live in peace where no sickness flows.
Those who are left on this earthly plain.
Live with the loss and with the pain.
Break:
[V]
Yet the living go on, see each sunset and greet every dawn,
somehow get through every day, because life and time are that way.
[C]
For those who are gone, as far as I know.
Now live in peace where no sickness flows.
Those who are left on this earthly plain.
Live with the loss and with the pain.
Break:
[B]
Yet time and life allow for memories,
through life and time your smiling face I see.
Everywhere I look, and throughout my dreams.
Time and life. Life and time return you to me.
Break:
[C]
For those who are gone, as far as I know.
Now live in peace where no sickness flows.
Those who are left on this earthly plain.
Live with the loss and with the pain.
