Bob, Don and Floyd. Thanks for the latest comments. Point taken about the word "Serenity" Floyd

It is NEARLY OVER. Don't know if I am going to miss it or be relieved. I think the big take home for me is just how many great song writers take part in this every year. This guy Arthur Rossi who I have collaborated with in Whats the Time in Amsterdam, The Train to Phnom Penh and this one has written nearly 100 sets of lyrics during FAWM (He aims to reach 100, of which many are in German). 31 of these lyrics have been set to music by various FAWMers. An incredible achievement!

I am half (and only half) tempted to give 50 90 a whirl......

Here is song # 11

I HATE PLANES with Arthur Rossi


Lyrics
The airport is as airports are,
cold, a little dark,
and today you’re leaving,
and today you’re leaving...

your bags already on the flight
there’s half a life inside,
today you’re leaving,
today you’re leaving...

(Chorus)
I hate planes,
if they were not there, you'd still be here
you’d be my darling, still my dear
and all’d be the same...
I hate planes, oh, I hate planes...

I just wished the'rd be no planes,
no ships, no cars, no trains,
so you’d not be leaving,
so you’d not be leaving...

I hope you’ll think of us,
don’t look back through that glass
when you are leaving,
when you are leaving

(Chorus)
I hate planes,
if they were not there, you’d still be here,
you’d be my darling, still my dear,
and all’d be the same...
I hate planes, oh, I hate planes...
