about

My experience in the music industry has been long and varied. The experiences of some of my musician friends has often been bitter. This is for them.

lyrics

Control
©1999 Rose Bygrave

I’ve been away from home so long that the garden has grown over
It’s not a place that I should be and it’s hard to face it sober for long.
Stolen away
Well I know I lost control
When I said yes
And I meant to say no.

Well around and Around and around we go and around and around and around we go again
Well around and Around and around we go and around and around and around we go again

You said I was too fat to dance but now I’m skin and bone I could be fading away
I signed your rotten line did you need my soul as well
Stolen Away
Well I know I lost control
When I said yes
And I meant to say no.

Well around and Around and around we go and around and around and around we go again
Well around and Around and around we go and around and around and around we go again

You stood me a blinding light and you fed me crumbs of praise to keep me here
And now I’m old you’ll cast me down dissected and rejected to the bone
Stolen Away
Well I know I lost control
When I said yes
And I meant to say no.

Well around and Around and around we go and around and around and around we go again
Well around and Around and around we go and around and around and around we go again
