The course of the heart
I made this song quite some time ago.
used to play it upstairs in the island.
Maybe she didn’t hear the lyrics, oh well, it doesn’t really matter anymore.
I was reading M. John Harrison at the time, Anima. I think I wrote about it here, so anima is actually a collection of two books: The Course of the Heart and Signs of Life. Of course this song got it’s lyrical inspiration from the book.
Books, both of them and actually all three M. John Harrisons book that I’ve read have this really deep melancholy in them, It’s hard to say what happens from time to time, there is a plot that is even quite clear, but what is the meaning of it? I have no idea, however the feeling that is in the books is something very true and… clear in it’s unclearness… I’m not making much of sense am I? well, just read either of them, or both or all, you get the picture, i’m sure. But remember I’m always a sucker for melancholia.
Back to the song… What can I say.. simple as hell… there is another… er harmony vocal somewhere in the back of my mind for this but it hasn’t manifested itself truly yet. maybe it never will. so 1 guitar 1 voice.
Lyrics maybe later if you want them…
