Jørgen, min kærlige gemal, har endnu engang hjulpet med via AI at sætte musik og vokal til min sangtekst fra 2020, ligesom han gjorde med min julesang i december. Det er lidt fantastisk for mig at høre mine tekster som rigtige sange. Måske vil I lytte med på “Get Back Blues”
Get Back Blues
Get back, get back now – get back, if we want our future back
Get back, get back now – get back, if we want our future back
Recently, I came upon those special days
Music shone through like were it golden rays
Hope and peace – it was all around
No fear, no anger, only love was found
Magic and freedom grew wild our minds
Dreams of the future we dared to find
Those were the fields of ’69, so green
The world would change – it would soon be seen
Surely, surely – we just need some more time…
Green the meadows, hearts of red
Grace and love in every musical set
And the only colours that we cared about
Were the colour of our hearts and the rainy clouds
Surely, surely – everybody will soon find out…
Get back to the days of hope we shared
With the dreams of love, that we all dared
Get back to the future that we once had
The magic powers – we so need them back
Get back, get back, get back now – get back, if we want our future back
My heart is now weary, my hair turned grey
My spirits all seem to have faded away
Before me lies the future spent
And wherever I look, I can’t see its end
Tell me, tell me, is all hope just gone ….
Cause where we’re going, nobody knows
The dawn is grey and the cold wind blows
And it seems now that everybody’s changed
The magic season is out of our range
Tell me, tell me, where’s the road leading back…
And hearts are no longer red and warm
And spirits are broken and minds are torn
And over the counter I can see your gun
Hanging from your shoulder, and you think it’s fun
Before us lie the worst of fears
Before us lie a sea of tears
Before us lie our broken hearts
Leaking with wasted love it starts
Get back, get back, get back now – get back, if we want our future back
But you really do know that there’s a better way
Help the magic now and the music to stay
Share the love, stop the fire insane
Let the thunder turn into a blissful rain
Surely, surely – we could do some talking instead…
I know talking may be so full of pain
Who is guilty, yes, and who’s to blame
But I’ll try your shoes on as a timid start
And make an extra effort to look into your heart
Yet I don’t know if I’ll be there to see
If the magic returns to set us all again free
And I pray that in future it’ll be wrong to tell
That we’re on our way to the bleakest hell
Get back, get back, get back now – get back now, if we want our future back
Get back, get back, get back now – get back now, if we want our future back
