Not sure if this qualifies as a remix, (Lyric remix…two words added?…cover song?) I was feeling this song so much I had to sing it. There’s still gonna be yet another version of this with Anchor too.


lyric based on a poem by A.E. Housman

You brought me warmth and shelter
from life’s most dreary days
and yet you would not have me
was such a high price paid?
If ever I had wished to rest beneath your shade
I’m certain that I should have never from your heart strayed.
Because I liked you better
Than suits a man to say,
It irked you, and I promised
To throw the thought away.

To put the world between us
We parted, stiff and dry;
`Good-bye,’ said you, `forget me.’
`I will, no fear’, said I.

But I lied
