LOVE SONG
©Trev Teasdel Middlesbrough 1981
Close your eyes and let them rest now
Dark days they will go past
Close your eyes and let them rest now
Oh the shadows they won’t last.
When you feel the tears swelling
And they’re not the tears of pain
And your lips begin to quiver
And it’s not with fear or strain.
When it’s hearts that speak not tongues
In a language queer to pens
When its souls that think not minds
With a logic that transcends
BRIDGE
It’s love yes its love
It’s love yes it’s love
It’s love and love has got to you..oo (Repeat)
Take my hand and let me hold you
Close as flesh can get
Take my soul and let me show you
That sacred place within
When flesh has done what flesh must do
And our hearts they are at peace
And we lay in sweet contentment
As if the troubled world had ceased.
To coda – as in bridge.

This began as blues riff but became something more melodic with guitarist Steve Gillgallon. An acoustic version here and an attempted synth version but without the vocals. Appeared as a poem in my 2nd poetry chapbook – Poet Reprobate 1985.
