Hi everyone,my latest BB track,written in collaboration with my poet and lyricist friend Mark Willis,using the strum and fingerpicking Realtracks folk style.
I played all the solos and extras as ever and did the vocal part.

Rick...
Good job...
Building up the instrumentation as the song progresses...
But I wish you had included lyrics.

Hi guys.
Here’s the lyrics as requested.

SWORD AND CLASP (Words by Mark Willis and Riccledy/Music by Riccledy.
Feelings mean much more, when your hearts upon the floor
I remember what it was,before you walked right out the door
It was everything and nothing all rolled into one
Now the time has come,to finish what’s been done.

So il raise up my sword and clasp at my shield
As I’m sure you’re heart will duly yield

We shine together and we follow our dreams
Life isn’t always as bad as it seems
So never give up or never give in,
We’ll see it through together,our love is not a sin.

When the thunder claps and my ghost appears
I know what it takes to dry your tears
The moon disappears and the dawn will rise
The sun lifts up and the sky glows free
The shackles release and we’re both feeling free
And the time ahead will be forever we.
