‘Rumbling, Tumbling Hills’ Rumbling Tumbling Hills For miles Walking over stiles No wall Stands too tall While walking And talking Over rumbling Tumbling hills Through trees I fall on my knees But not stopping me Getting to thee Over fields Through valleys Past waterfalls Each step A view Of beauty Lakes like mirrors The hills Silent and still A moment To reflect Up hills Or mighty mountains My memories Created here Are my muse Forever a muse.
‘i wanna get lost with you’ i wanna get lost with you across the fields and over the hills run freely to be who we are love each other like we have always have getting lost with you would be like finding a whole new world where we could explore our minds and everything that we have together i wanna get lost with you as i simply adore you finding you attractive in every way getting lost with you i’d show you how much i love you and why you are so close to my heart i wanna get lost with you through valleys and lanes where no phone signal could reach us with only our voices to speak and the views of rolling hills to admire getting lost with you could not last long enough and it is you and your heart that makes me feel alive i wanna get lost with you starting on the path through the hills over streams to the where our cottage resides where no one could find us getting lost with you we become closer than ever with the real world a million miles away and all we have is our souls to survive i wanna get lost with you because you are beautiful and in the chaotic world we live getting lost with you is all i ever want to do with you.
‘Interlude 1’ Take me to the sky where I can fall forever more into your arms or just hit the floor
‘Given the day’ Given the day I would walk Over Churchdown Hill through to Crickley HIll clambering over the Peak rambling to Coopers Hill rolling down to Upton to get up to Robinswood before the light of day fades away Given the day I would enjoy every mile of every style just because the green fields are endless from here to anywhere Given the day I’d walk every hill as long as there is light to see every view from every angle that each unique hill gives Given the day before the light fades away over Robinswoods through Upton I’d ramble and scramble up and over Coopers Hill Where I’d see the Peak Before walking over fields past reservoirs and animal filled fields onto Crickley hill before trudging to Churchdown and heading home from the Hill All this if I was given the day.
‘Interlude 2’ You're beautiful in every way for if I say let's run today so tomorrow we wake up together in each other’s arms what would you say?
‘Colour between seasons’ The green grew all summer long from the rain and the sunshine became a view of lush green trees As the season starts to change the trees leaves start to regress from green they fade into yellow It’s that time of year again when trees and views change colour and depth We see another summer go by and winter will arrive in any given day however the colour between seasons gives us a little more time for us to see what the summer grew albeit in a different colour, light and view As I watch the change in view day by day and week by week between seasons of summer and winter the summer grew the beauty we see now the winter will hide what we have seen providing a different scene of the trees Until the sunlight provides warmth again and green returns to the trees bare arms from buds yet to grow through winter they will the colour between seasons is something to watch and admire.
‘Interlude 3’ All over the water Lay the memories of you Spread across the surface As the tide gently takes them away
‘Love as high as the clouds’ When I'm close to you I don't feel like I'm falling My heart remains calm And together we hold hands We could be as high as the clouds Higher than the mountains beside us But vertigo will stop me being next to you Even if the world decided to fall away We would be holding hands Staying stronger and higher Than we ever imagined we would Each time we step side by side Our love grows and becomes something Something so strong the higher it goes So it feels sometimes that it is out of this world Yet somehow our feet are firmly on the ground All from when I’m close to you I don't feel like I'm falling Yet falling more and more in love with you.

‘Coffee in the window’ We sat and we drank coffee in the window Nervous laughter pursued but smiles were aplenty We spoke of our day and all that worried us By the window we sat Seeing the world go by as we sipped our drink While you looked out I looked at you With fondness and butterflies in my stomach There was something about you Something so wonderful my mind thought and thought A table for two was all we needed Watching the world go by With us side by side we shared our thoughts As time flew by it did not matter I worried more about drinking coffee I didn't even like coffee Even if it was a mocha But I drank it anyway As I didn't want to sour the moment The table by the window remains there to this day And one day we will sit there once again To talk about where our lives have lead us And to get to know about you once again But the next time a hot chocolate will do Because the mocha never grew on me Yet you always grew on me.

‘Hold back the heart’ I have to hold back the heart as if I let it go it would tell you everything that I feel for you My heart presses against the chest and in turn presses against my hands I must not let it loose as what it holds the world would see It’s depth has been revealed before but to no avail so quickly pressed back into the chest Holding back the heart causes it to hurt as what it beats for is you and you are what makes it beat The more it presses the more tired the hands become and so I feel I should let it go and what comes from its freedom will be what it will be.
‘you became’ you became my heart and in turn part of me you became my dream where i stood beside you you became the same feelings and thoughts as if you were with me you became more and more than i could ever know within in my heart you became my other half bridging the gap that you have always been able to build a bridge to connect us you became part of me to help me become me and then became us.

‘Goole’ The green back door grandma stood with pouting lips a welcoming kiss back in once again in Goole Vividly remembering the view from the dinner table I could see the playing field through the net curtains As the grown ups talked and talked all I wanted to do is play in the school playing field to play in the park to play football with grandad, dad and brothers Grandma’s cooking was Yorkshire at it’s best the smell of Yorkshire pudding and cabbage a smell to treasure forever more but the cabbage I could never taste (even to this day) yet it was just the best food in Yorkshire An open fire place filled with embers and soot no need for a TV as this entertained all evening I was simply fascinated by fire as it roared Out to the garden to get more coal and logs for the fire grandad chopping logs and shovelling coal it was quite the excitement to see The garden was natural and long the birdbath stood at the end of the path and I wonder now where it ended up a beautiful garden it always was As everyone became older I still remained the young one When age grew for grandad his eyes became tired and the mind always remembering the war he was in a place once more where he fought for us all Fond distant memories of so much more.
‘By the blue door’ By the blue door we stood and said goodbye with tears in our eyes We stood by the blue door where we parted ways Neither knowing when or if we’d see each other again By the blue door I remembered the day I’d met you on the beach as each memory flew through my mind before we went our ways I remember you more but the blue door where we stood that day is the prominent moment from when I saw you last As I turn away from you and the blue door I wished I looked back just once more By the blue door we stood and said goodbye yet I still don’t know when I will see you once again.
‘Interlude 7’ 'Pub' sober mind going in lost mind leaving somewhere in between i thought laughed drank and believed in my dreams
‘By the Sea’ By the sea A refugee Lay bare A life Needlessly taken By the sea A life ended And a body picked up With a heavy heart By the sea We see the cost Of what people do To flee what was Once their home As we look At our posh tv screens In our warmth filled homes We stop to think About the human misery Yet we never think That this would happen to us So how do we let this Happen to them.
