Listen to "40 Odd Years," a Brand New Release
Forty-Odd Years © copyright 2006 by Oriablue All Rights Reserved 40-odd years of alone in some room Lend me one heart That would choose to hold me- just for this day. All of the years that I’ve waited for you; Hope was misspent, but I’m still here. Still don’t know why, yet I’m still here. Wait for more moons just like this one, to pass. Keep my soul to the grind, walk alone so brave and very strong. Held love up like a candle to the flame. Stir up no ashes from the ground. Holding no memories; burn them ‘round. Ref: Been hangin’ by a thread, but walking on instead of hoping for some future-to-be; Tried everywhere outside of love and back but life has brought me back to the innermost parts of me. Ah, Ah, Ah, Love eludes me. Break: Even though life can feel like it’s nearly over, When the years, have been swept, like tides away, Toss the dreams to the wind and let them find their way, You’ll be fine on your own. All alone. 40 long days I have traveled through the desert Merging my heart so it learns to rise and leap in the Now All of the moments that I’ve felt that you are near… Hope is still asking; can you hear? Will you still want me now I'm here? (Refrain) Ah, Ah, Ah, life Imbues me…. Imbue me. In tribute to the ashes of a challenging past...may it rest in peace, as I dance on, in joy, love, and completion. ob
