THE FOREVER SWEET WINEDARK SKY song lyrics by Joel Sattler sirens in the head she burns the pen all night too cold to feel warm too warm to feel right cats balled up on the sofa the floors are all asleep no pipes are left uncracking expanding with the heat passing out of walls each clock goes tick tick tick no wind against the window the trees against the brick when will she be finished how am I to know lie crosswise in our bed with no where else to go the forever sweet winedark sky looking out the glass the forever sweet winedark sky drink it up at last the forever sweet winedark sky night is coming fast forever sweet winedark sky the future born in past alone alone in grey I think this is to be what it has to feel like to be a memory as echoes wail outside to summon the volunteers and when the ambulances go there's nothing left but tears between a man and a woman no balance can be true the sun and moon are equal the me is only you the planets spin around no use in asking why what's lost is only found in the forever sweet winedark sky the forever sweet winedark sky looking out the glass the forever sweet winedark sky drink it up at last the forever sweet winedark sky night is coming fast forever sweet winedark sky the future born in past ============= �

This one has such a mournful tone to it that it is the essence of blues. The lyrics conjure up lonely dark times in cooped up rooms. With the right melody and the right arrangement. Could be a big hit. I can hear the guitar licks starting this one off already.
