Liner Notes
|
I woke up on September 11 2001 to see the second plane going into the World Trade Centre. I wrote this song that day, it was the first song I had written in a very long time. I remember vividly writing it but it wasn't an enjoyable experience, I just needed to do it. This is a fully finished song that Mike hunter mixed with me in my home studio. |

Lyrics
Keep Telling Myself
Keep telling myself Day after day I go on and on So I appeal to the god above A million men go marching on They look at the moon but I look at the sun Because I believe in something else Helping me through when my soul is spent
It's something that's in me Something that drives me on When I wanna give up I just keep repeating The world is so wonderful I tell myself
And everything's alright Everything's alright I keep telling myself There must be a reason There's got to be something else 'Cos of what's gone on
Lyrics by:Paul Draper
