It Hurts My Head heavy blues missed you last evening when time stands still I turned to be with you and feel that old thrill I felt a cold river run through my veins my memory stirred my heart filled with pain my eyes filled up you left me for dead the moment was cruel weighed on me like lead my mind set to aching in my empty bed it hurts my head. I bolted up frightened to escape the bad dream I started chokin and I struggled to breathe gasping I wondered if I could be blamed for lovin too hard an obsession insane I felt myself fighting a coming undone your leave unexpected a hard hit and run I charged you with treason I wished you were dead it hurts my head. here in this cold house it hardly seems fair your voice is an echo that calls everywhere I missed your devices I missed your designs I saw no reason to see you unkind you used the power of lies like a drug you nunbed my senses and stoned me with love there's no forgiveness I wish you were dead it hurts my head. saw you last evening when time stands still somewhere your image far over a hill there in the distance your worn battered face a sad lonely picture full of trouble and pain your arms strecthed out to me these times are tough the road coming back is rocky and rough I fight back my mercy should I leave you for dead it hurts my head it hurts my head oh it hurts my head feels heavy like lead it hurts my head fade............... The role of poetry is to utter the un-utterable; to open up |

Eric...would be hard to live, to love, to give yourself away, without singing the blues too...that's the way of things. Of course, most can't write the music or the song as well as you do. |

(tears fall down my cheeks) I hate the feeling of standing in a lonely house, dearest friend, here's hoping now the summer has come to grace that cold river running theough and it is more like a resort to you now with love dipping toes in your creek! (big hugggsssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Eric, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story |

ethome - One of these days I'm going to take a trip to New Brunswick for a visit and hear some of these great songs that you write... Perhaps we could do some of mine also... BC |
