about

This is a love song inspired about my favorite book - "Still Life with Woodpecker" by Tom Robbins - and a hauntingly synchronistic life experience. 🦅

This post modern fairytale & love song are about a broken-hearted environmentalist, existentialist-redheaded princess from a dreary-weathered state who travels to a Hippie Convention in Hawaii🌴

There, Leigh Cherie fell in love with an anarchist-outlaw, speaking a creative mantra of "yum", with a philosophy that freedom is more important that happiness.

Due to circumstances, they're not able to be together.

Leigh Cherie & Bernard give love away, which allows it to stay.

lyrics

You bring the fuse, I'll bring the match,
I'll light the end, you close the hatch.
We'll build a house, we'll make it home,
We'll run and run and run and roam.

Anywhere, anyway,
In the meadow we lay.

We know how to make love stay,
Give it up and give it away,
Day after day, oooo,
Day after day.
When we've written every song to play,
And we've sung every word to say,
In the meadow we lay, oooo
In the meadow we lay.

How did you see that my,
Soul was ready to break free and fly?
We think we've got each other's keys,
To sail the wild seven seas.

Anywhere, anyway,
In the meadow we lay.

We know how to make love stay,
Give it up and give it away,
Day after day, oooo,
Day after day.
When we've written every song to play,
And we've sung every word to say,
In the meadow we lay, oooo
In the meadow we lay.

We know how to make love stay,
Give it up and give it away,
Day after day, oooo,
Day after day.
