“Now I see that I’ve been blind! My universe begins to roll every time I change my mind. We were sentenced to a prison hole ten thousand years ago with memories searing through our souls of living death and dying old. The rhythmic song of distant suns sing “We’ve drifted far from Shore, You and I shared many lives before”. I remember, mirrored darkly, when I try; Shapeless Shades of Nothingness, without a Cause or Reason why, Pretenders in A Game of Life. Dreams we dream while we’re alive, Realities we build of Lies; Illusions of Our Will. There is No One to blame. The Eternal Now remains…. and Love is still the same.”
This is one of the most powerful love songs ever written and performed. It communicates the beautiful pain of sexual desire and passion that conceives babies, and yet, leaves partners in heart break, longing, anguish and despair over the loss of a relationship that promised an eternity of overwhelming Ecstasy and Joy.
Sex without communication, seeks only sensation: no responsibility for the lover and no willingness TO BE THE OTHER. Sexual passion endures for a moment. The Child of Passion lives for a Life Time, depending on parents to nurse, to work, to sacrifice for them, in the Hope of fulfilling a Future for themselves, each other and for Mankind. The regret of losing the possibility of creating a Life, and Living a Life, is the Pain of Death.
“Used to be so easy to give my heart away, But I found out the hard way, There’s a price you have to pay I found out that love was no friend of mine I should have known time after time So long, it was so long ago But I’ve still got the blues for you Used to be so easy to fall in love again But I found out the hard way It’s a road that leads to pain I found that love was more than just a game You’re playin’ to win But you lose just the same So long, it was so long ago But I’ve still got the blues for you So many years since I’ve seen your face Here in my heart, there’s an empty space Where you used to be So long, it was so long ago But I’ve still got the blues for you Though the days come and go There is one thing I know I’ve still got the blues for you.”
— lyrics to the song, ‘Still Got The Blues For You’, by Gary Moore
