This is from a busk a few weeks ago in St Ives (computer has been playing up) It's from 2013. Think I'd been wiring up some pickups on the day I wrote it, which is where verse two came from!
PEBBLES
You and I are pebbles,
pebbles in a stream,
water flowing over us,
wearing us down.
You and I are wires
twisted together,
twisted ‘till we don’t even know
who we were.
You and I are wires
twisted together long ago.
You and I are branches,
branches on a tree.
The leaves have fallen off
and now you see
the spaces in between.
Yeah the spaces in between,
is where it all seems to be.
Yeah, you and I are pebbles,
pebbles in a stream,
life is flowing over us,
wearing us down,
wearing us down,
wearing us down.

thanks Digly, and yesI used the new camera. St Ives hasn't changed much...except for Edinburgh Woollen Mill has shut and it's now an Opticians (exiting news!) Yes there's always "stuff"
Nice one, Be ! A lovely song. Are you using the new camera ? - the sound is great :-)
It's nice to see St Ives again - we keep planning to come back to visit neighbours but 'stuff' gets in the way.......
Thanks Maddog
Well done BE!!!
thanks John, glad you enjoyed it :-)
What a lovely song, lyrics and story. Starting my day off nicely. Thanks!
thanks a lot Brian and A.D :-)
Wheather is clearing up ! Spring is in the air ! Got me a new Virus Killer as well ,most of the nasty ones where in my E-Mails !!! Busck -a -HO !! Sunshine to Yee!! Be!
Came back for a second listen, love the line about twisting the wires :D
thanks a lot Doug. It's a bit of a faff doing the lyrics, but was much more trouble than it should have been as my computer's been playing up! I like to do it if I have time....
