about

Thank you for listening to my collaboration with Doug. This was a so-called "random collaboration". The rules are: songwriters sign up for collaboration offering creating music or lyrics and being paired randomly. In random collaboration 3 Doug became my random collaborator. Doug created a very beautiful and moving lyric and I composed music.

'Scented Candles and Neruda'
© 2019 Doug Haberman (lyrics) and Nadia Cripps (music)

The bleeding of the sun
Into the tissue of the sea
Makes you want to run
You say
Though you have no issue with me

Your heart no longer beats
In rhyming rhythm with my own
To share one’s life is sweet
You say
But your vision is to be alone

So I’m back to scented candles and Neruda
Back to gathering sea shells on the beach
It seemed to me
Our dream had come to be
Now you’ve moved it out of reach

I will learn my strength
I say in promise to the clouds
Shrouding me the length
Of day
And I’ll find my solace somehow
Oh, I’ll find my solace somehow
Yes, I’ll find my solace somehow
