KISS
Copyright © 2021 Jane Hasler, Alan Blair Middleton, Paul Stewart Ross
Verse
I move slowly thro’ corridors dark,
Compelled to follow you, so unwilling to part,
Music and laughter drifts up from the hall,
Fade to a whisper in this irresistible thrall,

Chorus
Need to know all you feel for me,
Ooo Need to show all I feel for you oo oo ooo,,
To hold you close and wish,
You dare to hold me too,
And we’ll kiss,

Verse
Oh forbidden sweet trip of temptation,
ooh Our eyes meet with unspoken intent,
And from doubt, came the thrill of believing,
To this moment, this tumultuous evening,

Chorus
Need to know all you feel for me,
Need to show all I feel for you,
To hold you close and wish,
You’ll dare to hold me too
And we’ll kiss.

Bridge
In the darkness, I reach you,
Stumble into arms, unfamiliar bliss
In the darkness you reach me,
Your lips to mine and we kiss
Chorus
Need to know all you feel for me,
Need to show all I feel for you,
To hold you close and wish,
You dare to hold me too
And we kiss.

Verse 3
All that we needed, all that we dreamed,
The closeness we craved, such long years missed,
Takes hold of us now, no way to resist
Entwined in the shadows, lost in this kiss

Chorus
I need to know all you feel for me,
I need to show all I feel for you,
To hold you close and wish,
You dare to hold me too
And we kiss
Kiss and kiss

Lullaby Lady
By Jane Hasler (3 song writers from Scotland)

Verse1
Child, close your eyes, and she’s comes now,
The Lullaby Lady, Lullaby lady,
Child can you hear? She sings soft songs,
Oh Lullaby Lady, Lullaby lady,

Chorus
Reach, take her hand now and she’ll fly with you,
Over mountains, up to the stars,
Jump over rainbows too and, see the world from afar,

Verse 2
Child, can you dance? Dance with her so fleet,
The Lullaby Lady, lullaby lady,
Child, and you smile, smile at her so sweet,
The Lullaby lady, Lullaby lady,

Chorus
Hold-on, take her hand now and she flies with you,
Over forests, and oceans dark blue,
High in the skies, moon beams touch, shining just for you,

Bridge
Slowly, she’ll carry you home,
Sleep child, sleep on,
Sleep child sleep till dawn,

Lullaby lady, lullaby lady oh, lullaby lady,
Lullaby lady oh the lullaby lady,
(fade out)

Lullaby Lady

Good days
Jane Hasler, Alan Blair Middleton, 2020

Chorus
Good days will come one more time
Going to take them, embrace them, make them sublime,
Hope we can climb, hold the lifeline
Hope it’s going to be fine
When the good days come one more time

V1
Tough times have been here,
Confusion and fear
Set up by big shots with too much to say
Flamboyant but blind to losing the way
Taking power trips, chasing cash dreams
Snaring us all in their greedy schemes
They couldn’t see what was coming
Too high a price, there’s no outrunning

Chorus
Good days will come one more time
Going to take them, embrace them, make them sublime,
Hope we can climb, hold the lifeline
Hope it’s going to be fine
When those good days come one more time

V2
Tho’ things are still rough,
Lost leaders still ramble,
But the spirit is fierce, it fights and scrambles
Look around, at all the good reaching out
Helping, healing, to turn it about
From consuming and harsh division
To a world of good, kind vision.
Good days will come sure enough

Bridge
We got to choose to hope, Try to dance, dance in the rain,
We got to choose to hope, sing our songs release the pain,

Chorus
Good days will come one more time
Let’s take them, embrace them, make them sublime,
Hope we can climb, find the lifeline
Hope it’s going to be fine
When the good days, they come one more time
Oh, oh hope those good days come, it is time
For the good days to be all yours and mine

Good Days

Verse 1
I don’t understand why, each time you let me through your heart’s door, (we could soar),
You turn so cold, like all we shared never went before, (I need more),
What happened to you long ago, makes you too scared to know? (scared to show),
How much richer we could be, and what being together could mean,
Chorus
I don’t understand why, I don’t understand why, I don’t understand why, tell me why,
Repeat line
Verse 2
I don’t understand why, still I’m not sure, (unsure),
For my need to know you offer no cure, (so insecure),
I’ve tried so often to reach out my hand, (understand) to give you love,
And make you feel safe and know, I’d never have let it go,
Chorus
Never let go, never let go, never let go I’d never have let it go,
I don’t understand why, I don’t understand why, I don’t understand why, tell me why,
Verse 3
I don’t understand why, perhaps never will, (unfulfilled),
What drives you to turn away from us still, (feel the chill),
For we have tasted something so sweet, (bittersweet,) when you’ve let our hearts meet (miss a beat),
Chorus
When our hearts meet, when our hearts meet, (so bittersweet,) when our hearts meet.
Never let go, never let go, never have let it go
I don’t understand why, I don’t understand why I don’t understand why oh tell me why

End stanza
I’ve tried and I’ve tried, can take it no longer,
I give nothing more, except hope whatever your fear one day is gone.
Fade out on I don’t understand why, I don’t understand why

I don't understand why

Verse 1
Ours has been the hardest path to walk, the toughest trail,
This time around, this time around,
You and me are not to be, no not to be, this life time round
But when our eyes met, as our smiles hit
When our hands touched, then our fire lit
While our lips joined, those lived life times
Came tumbling down on us again

Chorus
And yes, I still surrender, coming back once more together,
And you my dearest friend, you and me never end,
But it’s too late this time, you chose another one
This time around

Verse 2
Many years, holding on, hanging on, together holding on,
Long days now, don’t you know? Too many this time round,
But then our time flew, with no place to be,
There’s no honest space for you and me,
Without hurting us, time to let it be
Close it right back down again,

Chorus
And yes, I still surrender, coming back once more together,
And you my dearest friend, you and me never end,
But it’s too late this time, you chose another one
This time around

(Repeat with counter vocal improvisation ‘this time around, this time around, close us right back down again, my dearest friend, I surrender, I do surrender etc to end of track.)

About Me

Bio

We are three song writing friends in Scotland. We have joined as song writers. Ideally we hope to sell our work so that it may be recorded by another artist/producer etc. Jane and Alan have written songs and lyrics over the years for themselves. Alan sometimes sings and performs with acoustic guitar at open mic venues and has taken part in amateur musicals. Jane also has been in bands and amateur musicals and sings in a local community singing group. Paul is an accomplished musician and performs a number of instruments (mainly guitar and bass) and provides backing vocals in different local bands, mainly in the west of Scotland for the love of music. We have worked together to create songs. This is with the hope of selling on some songs we create. We currently have 6 song/tracks in a range of genres and quite a few more more in development .There are also lyric only uploads on our pages where we haven't started any music compositions for these. On two of our tracks backing vocals are by Karen Ewing. She sings all vocals on This Lifetime Round.
