 It’s a strange cargo that lives and breathes
That feels the fear and pain A strange cargo that hears and sees the depth of humanities shame And it’s fragile like tears on the face of a child Soft as a lover’s first kiss And when merchandise starts with a breakable heart What strange cargo is this From 'Strange Cargo' - www.stolenlives.co.uk  For Ruth - Happy Birthday
Somewhere between your heart and mine is the place where we both belong From different perspectives down parallel lines we are drawn by the journey we're on For the boy in the bubble the girl in the song There are still more mountains to climb Somewhere between your heart and mine  Haytor Quarry - Dartmoor Peace like a river flows
Ease my mind See how the Spirit grows All the time I can't really believe this is happening to me Hold me, let nothing on earth ever take your love away from me Peace Like a River - Paul Field 1983  'Laden Autumn here I stand
Worn of heart and weak of hand Nought but rest seems good to me Speak the word that sets me free' William Morris  'Surely this is stony ground, on which to build a kingdom'
 'Lives laid on the tabletop for all to see
The superficial counterpane of make believe Bottles standing empty now reflect the face Of hearts filled up with broken dreams and empty space' 'Conversation pieces' - Paul Field 1975 |
