Not Back: Cripple Club & Gordon M by Mountain Songs published on 2019-03-31T06:39:04Z Written by Terry Reeves. Arranged, Produced and Mixed by Gordon Midgley. https://soundcloud.com/gordon_m https://soundcloud.com/napiers_bones Gordon Midgley: Guitars, Bass, Percussion, Backing Vocals Gary Reeves: Lead Vocal, Drums This song’s about a bloke I know. He tends to find life a bit difficult because he overly frets about stuff. I mean, you and me might worry we’ll lose our loved-ones in some monstrous accident, but he’s the kind who’ll drive himself into towering anxiety about a remark he remembers making in 1973. So as a result, I suppose you’d say he’s something of a recluse, but will occasionally put in a surprise appearance, and invariably gets the very warmest of welcomes. But although he does want to be, he’s not back. Gordon has done such superb work on this song - he’s captured everything it is about and so much more. Gal and me are incredibly lucky to be able to work with such a fine musician - he makes the process so pleasurable and so easy. (Terry Reeves) NOT BACK Alone again on my own I don't know where the time has gone But I'm not back And I'm not back again Words of friendship in my head Too many spaces with nothing said But I'm not back And I'm not back again CHORUS: I don't know who I want to be It's not me I don't know who I want to see It's not me It's not me Many friends say they understand Distant echoes of a silent band But I'm not back And I'm not back again There's no witness to the tears I've cried No Samaritan will live by my side But I'm not back And I'm not back again CHORUS Waking silence a constant voice Answer questions not always by choice But I'm not back And I'm not back again Much to do but so much pain Straining muscles inside my brain But I'm not back And I'm not back again Middle instrumental break CHORUS Waiting moments a chance to breathe Thinner air makes it harder to achieve But I'm not back And I'm not back again Sideways thinking but nothing heard One voice to keep you happy another voice to keep it blurred But I'm not back And I'm not back again No I'm not back. And I'm not back Again… Genre Absent Blues Comment by Dave Orestes 1 like the vocals and guitar melody..lyrics are great description of this poor guy.."I'm not back..again" is a great line..he knows inside he is coming around again ,tired of being alone,but won't admit it outloud 2023-04-08T12:42:00Z Comment by Llanpsych Great song and top class production 😎 2023-03-28T16:12:49Z Comment by QB Bills Extremely relatable.
