Hump Day - JC Apking

Time can be a foe, and love can be a bad thing
When you're in the hole, your heartbeat counts the waiting
Sleep won't come tonight, so I might as well just be listening
To the sound of raindrops soliciting the christening

With my blood, pull time from me
Be my drug, leach time from me

Focus on a picture with gloss and gilded edges
I can almost see me with her, checking out all the ledges
That overlook streams and valleys in Avalon's misty garden
And I am a minstrel gypsy, begging the reaper's pardon

Will my song pull time from me
With my tune steal time from me

As I walk in line, walk in line
Hand and hand with the reaper of time
If he stares, don't be shy
He just wonders why
I'm just wasting time, I'm just wasting time
If I never see the day that I have been expecting
If I never find a girl who is watching my rain collecting
If it never comes to pass that my melody sways the dancer
If every dream comes to naught and reality is a cancer

Could it be blatant honesty
When I see time slipping from me

As I walk in line, walk in line
Hand and hand with the reaper of time
If he stares, don't be shy
He just wonders why
I'm just wasting time, I'm just wasting time

Demo || JC Setlist || Tunelist

(Recorded with Jim Farmer on drums
great work on this Jim - thanks dude!)

Note:  Arrangement wise this is too drawn out and is missing something
3 notions there are here . . .
1) cut out that 2nd 4 bar before each verse
2) cut out half of the fanfare lead in other than the first verse
3) put some keyboard in there
4) harmonies - Tim?
