Falling (feat Mr. Yesterday)

from Bohemian Cabaret by Siobhan Dakay

/

about

The depths of despair are captured by Mr. Yesterday’s longing, heart-broken vocals and Siobhan Dakay’s haunting, piano-lead jazz.

lyrics

I haven’t heard a word from you in such a long, long while.
Our differences as always are impossible to reconcile.
I tried to call you on the phone.
I’d hoped to speak with you alone.
I left a message once or twice for what that’s worth.
It seems you’ve fallen…
Perhaps you’ve fallen…
It’s like you’ve fallen off the face of the earth.

That time you left I thought we’d see each other now and then.
I’d find you some familiar place and ask, “Do you remember when?”
It hasn’t worked out quite that way
though I’ve been searching every day.
There’s been no trace of you at all for what it’s worth.
Perhaps you’ve fallen…
It’s like you’ve fallen…
It seems you’ve fallen off the face of the earth.

I’ve never wanted anchors or routines that tie me down.
I want to pull up stakes each time somebody speaks my name in town.
But I’ve run far as I can go.
There’s no one else I really know.
You’re all I’ve ever really loved for what that’s worth.
And now I’m fallin’…
Each day I’m fallin’…
I feel I’m fallin’ off the face of the earth.

I haven’t heard a word from you in such a long, long while.
I’ll leave this one last message in the hope that it might make you smile.
But since you won’t return the call
I’ll take the phone down off the wall
and let this number be released for what it’s worth…
and I’ll have fallen…
just like you’ve fallen…
I will have fallen off the face of the earth.
