Well as they say if you don't ask you don't get.
And having asked Alan he kindly offered me these rather great lyrics to try and make up a song with.
I got the tune down quite quickly and then realised it was in the wrong key so I had to re-record and try some different melodies out.
Anyway without further delay please have a listen and let me know your thoughts and suggestions.
And thanks
@montydog for the opportunity.

Bring no joy to me
For my love has been taken
And the past won't set me free
There's a moon that's rising
With a cool, ancient tide
I swam in it's waters
Baptised and broken bride
And still the world keeps turning
Time racing faster, now seems slow
My heart is burning
And I wonder what is it for
I'll never know
World keeps turning
I can't look in the mirror
There are no answers there
Just a fading, coral angel
With wings so cold and bare
There's an empty room that waits
For thoughts that never rise
Where broken pictures frame
A thousand sad goodbyes
Broken keys that jangle
And catch the winter sun
The ruby rosed bangle
That charms the chosen one
There's wind on the water
A guttering candle flame
Skyline smoke is rising
And I'm coming home again
