lyrics
Time To Sleep Corrina – © 1995 David Elias
(words and music by David Elias)
Coriander through the weeds
Dust sunflowers through the breeze
Raging water seeks to please
It’s all for nothin now
Catacombs and columbine
Push the pedal realign
Fathers of our tidy time
Show all for nothin now
Time to sleep Corrina
Those Swiss Alps are his cradle now
Years ago those boys were walkin
With high hopes and dreams
So profound
Keep the pace tomorrow
While quartz and crystals radiate
Through the mountain meadows follow
All those scenes we can
No longer recreate
Wings of strings and paper trails
Dominate the early view
All you know and all you need
And all you’re supposed to do
Come and walk with me awhile
While away those daily cares
Let the stream flow mile by mile
Through the broken past
And everywhere
Time to sleep Corrina
Those Swiss Alps are his cradle now
Years ago those boys were walkin
With high hopes and dreams
So profound
Keep the pace tomorrow
While quartz and crystals radiate
Through the mountain meadows follow
All those scenes we can
No longer recreate

David Elias recommends:
-
Intricate, exacting, sonically meticulous, extemporary in all its planning, takes you into a room then into a field then into the void.

Because of a Flower
by Ana RoxanneBought the vinyl. Spectacular use of sound with some insane vocal tracks overhead.
go to album -
Start at the end and play it backwards. Or forwards. Sideways either way. Squarely unsquare and rapidly descending. Captured.
