BTS.music: Majic: Once Again

PODcast: Majic: Once Again
Here's a snapshot of my song Once Again from my album Shadows of the Stars, which is supposedly a few albums back in the stack (behind Roxxor and Hey), but keeps nudging its way into my head. This version (V60423) doesn't have everything I want in the song and needs tweaking, but it at least captures the vital points and allows me to move on to other songs. As with everything I record, I feel like I've heard this song before somewhere, but that may just be because it's been bouncing around in my head for weeks. If it sounds like something you've heard elsewhere, please let me know. Maybe it's Cryptomnesia.

Once Again
Majic

Once again we gather round
To tell our tales of great renown
And toast the times

Hoist a pint and shout a song
As all our fellows sing along
In ancient rhymes

The moment passes and we part
With smiling face and heavy heart
From silent halls

Shadows of the distant past
Across my sleepy eyes are cast
As darkness falls

Once again...
Gather in the street
To shake the earth beneath our feet
Once again

Once again...
Say our last goodbye
As teardrops shower from the sky
Once again

Once again...

Once again I close my eyes
Mystic visions soon arise
Of other lives

Friendships I have known and lost
Passions of the highest cost
But love survives

Feelings I can never show
Are lost beneath the clouds below
As I take flight

Far beyond the veil of fear
To pass into a new frontier
Of purest light

Once again...
Dreams come to my mind
Of all that I have left behind
Once again

Once again...
Praxis and rehearse
To sail across the universe
Once again

Once again...
Echoes of delight
Signals passed by satellite
Once again

Once again...
Wait for a reply
But no one's there to tell us why
Once again

Once again...
Answering the call
The last to stand before the fall
Once again

Once again...
Fires glowing white
Two towers shining in the night
Once again

Once again... Teardrops shower from the sky
Once again... As we say our last goodbye
Once again... Though we wait for a reply
Once again... No one's there to tell us why

Once again...


Dedicated to a long lost friend.
