"There is nothing more magical than a group of people singing folk songs together."

Look guys, I wrote a song for once!

Right, I have to pack my PC away tonight in order to send it to California, so this is probably going to be my last post for a week or two. With that in mind, I had planned on writing a little something to say goodbye to all my lovely friends in England. But instead I ended up just generally writing a tune. So I dedicate this to you guys. My closest friends and associates, who I'm going to miss very much. I hope you can hear my sadness.
I've posted the lyrics below for you to have a gander at, they're somewhat based on an old poem I wrote, which is around here somewhere. Also, comments and criticism would really be much appreciated as I don't post original songs much.

Have a nice week.


I built you a paper plane/But you still can't fly away/Wash my head in the winter snow/And stare at life through the great below/I set my God aflame/Carved in his head your name/Where we'll look when the end is nigh/And he in turn will crack the sky.

I followed the yellow brick road/When no one told me where to go/I didn't find the kingdom of Oz/But I found a land of God.

I built you a paper plane/So we can fly away/Set your heart aflame/Carved in your head my name.
