Love Lost In Cyberspace [Blueprint for an EP] by Alan Ewing

 





Love Lost In Cyberspace 
[Blueprint for an EP] 
by Alan Ewing







Je ne sais pas (I don't know)




 I'll go my way

You go yours

We both have a say

As we close the door


And so on I go

As she goes on too

Break-ups are just so

Could it have grown?

Who's to say?


Je ne sais pas

I don't know, I don't know

I don't know

What could have been

Je ne sais pas


Love's labour lost

Amongst the loss

Take the road 

At great cost


Take a way

Out of trouble's woes

Find another day

To rake over the coals


Je ne sais pas

I don't know, I don't know

I don't know

What could have been

Je ne sais pas


To the end of all days

Will be remembered ways

Such friends to see

Lest was not to be

In the days of glory

 Will be found the story

And discover

The ending

Of a love

That lies pending


Embers still flicker

In the fading fire

Love still a giver

In the form of desire


Come the raging storm

Is held a little flame

Solace becomes the norm

The candle flickers again


Je ne sais pas

I don't know, I don't know

I don't know

What could have been

Je ne sais pas



Let It Rain



Bring it on down
No more clowns

Please God
Let it rain
Let It rain
Let It rain

I don't believe
Hard to conceive


Please Lord
Let it rain
Let it rain
Let it rain


Song of yesterday
As I now pray

My Messiah

Let it rain
Let it rain
Let It rain


A second chance
For such romance

Dear God
Let it rain
Let it rain
Let it rain

Person to be
So close to me

Oh my Lord
Let it rain
Let it rain
Let it rain

Love so lost
At great cost

Oh my Saviour
Let It rain
Let it rain
Let it rain

I give tears
Masks my fears

Oh Holy One
Let it rain
Let it rain
Let it rain




Little Friend


Little friend so lost at sea

Just no one you could be

You never really had a seed

Just a lack of positivity


And so the end of this time

Never believed that you were mine

It was really only a short while

That I would see your smile


Little Friend

You did not stand the test of time

Little Friend

Being too sensitive, your only crime


Never really knew you inside

You would always run and hide

You would always go to the brink

Then pull back for time to think


I never really knew for sure

If I could ever know you more

Always something you be hidden

Never released at my bidding


Little Friend

You did not stand the test of time

Little Friend

Being too sensitive, your only crime


So you run

To independent

Haven

At the end

You validated

yourself

For all to see

It could not

Last


Little Friend

You did not stand the test of time

Little Friend

Being too sensitive, your only crime





Stood Up




I got stood up in a kind of way

Question being: Where were you?

I’ll never forget that day

Because I stood you up too


You promised to be there on time

Though I knew you wouldn’t

You had sold me a false line

To get there, really I couldn’t


I bought a new coat and shoes

To be in all-black for the day

Come along, we’ll celebrate

She said, it is your birthday


I got stood up in a kind of way

Question being: Where were you?

I’ll never forget that day

Because I stood you up too


A year full of promise as friends

It seemed too good to be true

You revealed your sensitive ends

And suddenly everything was blue


Dreadfully confused reactions in play

All was scattered with no sense at all

A complete stranger emerged that day

I just didn't know your mind was a wall


I got stood up in a kind of way

Question being: Where were you?

I’ll never forget that day

Because I stood you up too


I never really knew you at all

Until the very end

About you I did not have a clue

Online messages to send

Turn on a sixpence was your act

Not friendship at all

Lost to cyber-space for sure

Though not a friend


I got stood up in a kind of way

Question being: Where were you?

I’ll never forget that day

Because I stood you up too
