Farewell Terry Hall 🤍🕊

Terry Hall (1959-2022)

Terry, the singer of the seminal 2-Tone band The Specials as well as a member of the Fun Boy Three and the Colourfield, has sadly passed away (this past week).

His dour lyrical prose brought light into the lives of those who felt the same way as he did and he has left us far too young.

RIP legend.

Lyrics:

I guess I kind of sort of know

I ought to be thinking of you

But a friendship′s built on trust

And that's something you never do

Well who knows - maybe tomorrow

We can share each other′s sorrow

And compare our graveside manner

As we wave our lonely banners

If you ever think of me

I'll be thinking of you

If you decide to change your views

I'm thinking of you

You can walk away from loneliness

Anytime you choose

And you′re the sort of person

That hasn′t anything to lose

But who cares - maybe tomorrow

You can lead and I could follow

So walk where angels fear to tread

For everything you've ever wanted

And if you ever think of me

I′ll be thinking of you

If you can spare an hour or two

You'll know what to do

I could be the one thing there

In your hour of need

So if you decide to change your views

I′m thinking of you

Let's roll the dice

In a fools paradise

Share moonlit nights

Breathing nothing but lies

Let′s open our eyes…

We should take a bus

To somewhere else to something new

Thank God we're alive

And bite off more than we can chew

Do the things that just don't matter

Laugh while others look in anger

Stumble over four leaf clovers

And say goodbye to lonely banners

Songwriter:

If you ever think of me

I′ll be thinking of you

Through thick and thin

I bear it and grin and never give in

I could be the one thing left

In your hour of need

So if you decide to change your views

I′m thinking of you

Thinking of you

Thinking of you

Thinking of you

Terry Hall, Toby Russell

I am so, so much more blocked up than I think I’ve been acknowledging. I don’t know how to fix it. The associated guilt and frustration doesn’t help. And it’s a real bummer to struggle so hard to create when so much of my self worth comes from that cycle of creativity. I can attempt to analyze it. But what I’ve found with other fun Brain Problems™, is that actually, it is possible to analyze too much?? So maybe… I just do it? I dunno. Anyway, here’s Terry in progress. 🖤

RIP, Terry Hall.

I really wanted for her to touch her knees I really wanted to share forgotten dreams Go through the motions of loving from a far And feel as if i'm reaching for the stars But each drop of hopelessness amounts To what could be a raging sea It could be spring time i'd meet her at the gates If beauty ever comes to those who wait

Castles in the air If only they were there Just like a beatnik love affair Those castles in the air

So let me look into the windows of your soul Let me make the most of what i'll never know We'll eat forbidden fruits and sing our favourite songs And never tell each other we're wrong Each drop of tenderness you give Would be another reason why i'd want to live Would be another chance to sit beneath the stars And whisper to each other in the dark

Castles in the air If only they were there We'd be so free and unaware Watching castles in the air

Why should a lonely person care What could a lonely person share A broken heart is much too hard to remend Cause beauty never comes to those who wait Romance is a word That should be seen but never heard I don't even know your name

But castles in the air We were almost there We almost shared Castles in the air

Songwriters: Hall / Lyons

[lookninjas]

We never talked

We never kissed

We never loved but we thought we did

So I walked away and I called it quits

What the eyes don't see, you know the heart won't miss.
