Everyday there is a chance ,destiny will find you A ruthless hand steers the wheel to the fates that lye before you and hearts that know the truth they go on searching blindly until right out of the blue the stars align before you on a day ..like any other day on a day ...like any other day I left the house a few minutes late the bus has already turned the corner there will be another one soon but I can't wait I wander off down Mulberry a little old lady has dropped her purse ,and spilled out all of her groceries you stop to help her pick up her things, you turn and bump right into me we both said "whoopsie I'm sorry " then we laugh because who says such things the little old lady just winks at me as we wander off down Mulberry on a day ..like any other day on a day ....like any other day

kissing her 03:02
movie kiss kissing her kissing her. kissing her is like living in a movie.. Its the goodbye kiss in "The Longest Day" It's Lauren Bacall or Ingrid walking away It's in your heart and stirs your very soul It's in your head to let you know kissing her kissing her kissing her is like being in a movie Kissing her is like waking Sleeping Beauty Kissing her '"From here to Eternity" Kissing her is just like a movie baby Kissing her from here to eternity

That cannot be denied Let me show you where I go , when all the worlds asleep another place is waiting it isn't just for me . you can be there at my side I just have to let you know Im never looking back and when we go we go I wonder is you'll run with me will you take my hand we can climb the hill fly over the sea well I wonder will you Have a sense of wonder Have the sense to wonder Have a sense of wonder have the sense to wonder .....

fall from the stars I guess I'll never know why she chose me but it was clear she was ready to tell their story I'd never seen her on her own until that day it was hard to imagine why he had gone away I had often wondered was he the husband or the lover but then they looked so alike I guess he could have been her brother. she took my hand and we walked along she said "he was so much more than you will ever know " "he was all those things and so much more' "he was so much more than you will ever know" did she just read my mind ? it feels like she read my mind did she just read my mind …it feels like she read me "he was all those things and so much more " "we've been here so long but he knew me before" "he knew me way back when he really knew me then " so much more we've traveled so long we've traveled so far we were alway together and now he is gone I'm all alone and nobody knows I'm all alone and nobody knows until now …you're the one we came from the stars ..that's who we are we came from the stars

I don't go home that often you know but when you do there are always the people you want to see and the people you don't want to see. and she is just some one I think about a lot you know I worried about her she's getting on you know. my brothers like don't just don't … she's off her rocker she's lost the plot yes but if I did want to see her . where is she ? He's like where is she?, where do you thing she is ? she's at the top of the hill mate ,she's up on The Crescent she'll be up there today dancing she's up there everyday she never left mate . so off I trot . up the hill. And there she is she's on her toes spinning circles that nobody wants to see Im hoping I can catch eye and I think today she'll remember me "well .. you're the last person I expected to see today BUT you're the first person I expected to see today do you know what I mean " I'm like yea jewel I know exactly what you mean ….do you want to dance . come on and spin me in circles do you want to spin me in circles . they told me you moved to London that you don't even dance anymore ahh you don't want to believe that nonsense I'm dancing everyday. and every step I take you dance along with me and every bow I make you'll take along with me you're still in my circle, spin me in circles spin me in circles you're still in my circle she says ... they told us we are not supposed to have favorites YOU were always my favorite Oh thanks jewel you were always my favorite .

about

a day ..with Marcel

This collection of songs sprang from a collaboration that started over eight years ago . Marcel and I have never met , he lives and works in London, I live and work in Maine USA . I stumbled across his band page on soundclould and from there to his solo page, where he had instrumental tracks ready to download for anyone interested. I was interested.
His tracks immediately inspired vocal melody and lyrics . The first collaboration was "a day (like any other)". Fittingly it is the first song listed here, sorry Marcel I can't remember what your original instrumental was called .Over the following couple of years the collection has grown into this a full album.We rarely email have never talked, the music is the only connection.
We are both self taught songwriters/composers who's paths would never have crossed without the internet . I am from an Irish family born and raised in Birmingham England. I moved to New York in the 80's with a band and stayed . Marcel I believe is from South Africa and as I said earlier lives in London. I'm guessing I am maybe twenty years older than him ?. Chances are we will never meet . The songs will be out there in the ether …. forever . Thanks Marcel.
