O Kevin Ayers [The Wilde Flowers, Soft Machine, solo] ένα ακόμα θρυλικό μέλος του August born musicians club, απολαυστικά φλεγματικός στο αποχαιρετιστήριο τραγούδι του από το άλμπουμ Sweet Deceiver.

❝ Farewell again please come back someday
It’s getting harder every time I have to say
Goodbye
Oh fare you well
So many feelings I know we share
Like being here and wanting to be there
And when you’re asked where that is you
Say you don’t know
It s just somewhere else and you have to go
So you go
You always go, where do you go
So many choices you have to run
Because when life is made too easy
It s much harder to simply have fun
Now you’re always on the run
You panic when someone tries to unfold you
Scream for the dream that seems to hold you
You want to give love but only on condition
That it’s on your terms and that position is lonely
This I know
Don’t get me wrong
I’m not pushing you down
Or trying to change your mind
Your problems are my problems too
And I’m talking just as much to myself
As I am to you
Farewell again please come back someday
It’s getting harder every time
I have to say goodbye
Fare you well
Fare you well
Fare you well ❞

Enjoy!

* For my friends who didn’t know, or first timers here, Oannes [aka Socratis Papahatzis] is my husband, partner in life and music and the one with my undying admiration. Together we have a band MK-O [the music of Marina Kanavaki & Oannes]. So, it’s my pleasure to share with you his [and sometimes mine] musical selections. • Do visit his site. He has my highest recommendation!
