16 Apr 08 - 12:59 PM (#2317408) Subject: Lyr Add: ATLANTIC BLUE (Ron Hynes) From: GUEST,DWR After reading the discussion thread about Ron Hynes, I went looking for MY favorite Ron Hynes song, Atlantic Blue, and was amazed (well, almost amazed) to find that we didn't have it, so here it is. ATLANTIC BLUE Ron Hynes as sung by Cindy Church What colour is a heartache from a love lost at sea? What shade of memory never fades but lingers to eternity? And how dark is the light of day that sleepless eyes of mine survey? Is that you, Atlantic Blue? My heart is as cold as you.
How is one heart chosen to never lie at peace?
I lie awake in the morning, as waves wash on the sand,
And whose wish never fails to find |

I knew that I would eventually write something about that tragedy and six years later I did. I consider it my best work. I can hardly wait for his next c/d. I heard one song from his performance last summer at our festival. I think it is titled "House" Very, very moving. |
