A Special Place.

Here is the Lyrics to a song I wrote,several years ago. I dedicate it to all those who wish to get away from it all.

Pete.

A Special Place. belongs to the following groups:

So what becomes of you,
when you close your eyes at nightime,do you
travel some where in your dreams.
Is there a special place,
to save you from the human race,
Somewhere that nobodies been.

Where do you disappear,
do you see the pictures clear,
does it all come into view.
Is it a special place,
to save you from the human race,
Somewhere for no one but you.

Does your Sun always shine,
are there mountains there to climb,
does it have the highest Waterfalls.
Is it a special place ,
to save you from the Human race,
Just for you, and no one else at all.

In a place that can’t be bought.

So what becomes of you ,
when you close your eyes at nightime,do you,
Travel half a world away.
To find a special place,
to save you from the Human race
is it someplace you can stay.

Where do you disappear,
do you find a place so dear,
See the trees that stand so tall.
Thats a special place,
to save you from the human race
Just for you and no one else at all.

In a place that can’t be bought.

But do you think that it’s alright,
to dream your life away.
Do you think that it’s alright,
Save it for another day.

So what becomes of you,
When you close your eyes at nightime,do you,
Travel somewhere in your dreams,
Is there a special place ,
To save you from the Human race,
Somewhere that nobodies been.
Just for you, and no one else at all.

In a place that can’t be bought.

    I saw a quirky little movie about an irish songwriter the other night. The music was absolutely fabulous. Reading your lyrics reminded me of the movie and I started to hear ithe music in my head. Well done Peter, you are a talented songwriter.

    While I was out today I saw the soundtrack to the movie I mentioned in my comment above. The movie is called “Once”. It is new release and features music and lyrics by Glen Hansard. It is a quirky movie. Not a big plot but the music is fabulous. The director decided to go with a singer who could act a little rather than the other way around. Anyway, as you are a talented songwriter, you might enjoy it. It might even inspire you. Happy Easter.

    Thankyou, I’ll look into it.

    I wish I could hear the melody you put with them—to read lyrics without the music…is hard. But the words are lovely.
