Hello Yellow Brick Road Glazing, Box Of Love

A slower day yesterday. I wanted to slow down and rest for a day. I wrote the draft of a Christmas song, although it changed from Father Christmas desperate to deliver a present into a love song of sorts. The melody is fast rock in the manner of 'Jamie and the Magic Torch', but it needs work. I'll leave it.

Also, framed the Lost Boy painting, which is being collected today, and painted a little more of 'Hello Yellow Brick Road'.

Box Of Love

I got a broken box of love
And I gotta give it you by midnight
The forest is a maze of twilight
The fog is closing all around

I know that you are far away
But I gotta get to you by midnight
I gotta tell you things are alright
I gotta lay your worries down

And I see a silver trail go by
Like a star lost in the sky
Lost in the sky

A blizzard is about to fall
And I worry did I miss the midnight?
Will I comfort you or kiss you tonight?
Will I ever see your face again?

I never was a man to pray
but I'm praying for another midnight
Praying for another midnight
Praying for another when

And I see a silver trail go by
Like a star lost in the sky
Lost in the sky
