about

Write this when I was still at school after seeing the Movie Kes. Loved it, and wrote an environmental song / mental Health song.

lyrics

Standing down by the river,
Watching the pebbles lose their way.
Hearing the sound of the water,
What a peaceful day,

And I wonder just how long it's gonna last,
Yes, I wonder just how long it's gonna last

Springtime sees me walking through the fields,
Watching the Kestrel choose his prey,
Swooping down, gliding low,
Well, it's only natures' way,

And I wonder just how long it's gonna last,
Yes, I wonder just how long it's gonna last

I'm up here with the Kites looking down,
Looking down seeing miles around,
And the wind in the air is the only sound I hear.
I'm waiting now for the boatman to come,
Laid on the table I can see my gun
I'm almost ready to go to the other side

I place my dentures back in their tumbler,
reflecting on what I'd seen and done,
Hearing the sound of the water,
Reaching for my gun,

And I wonder just how long it's gonna last,
Yes, I wonder just how long it's gonna last

And I wonder just how long it's gonna last,
Yes, I wonder just how long it's gonna last
