.: Requime for my mother :. jeanvaljean Date Submitted:  2005-06-06 [Archive Date: 2005-09-04] Genre:  General Original Artist:  Jean Valjean Additional Info:  Disc Mfg:    Disc #:   Description:  Okay there is a story behind this song and it is spooky. My mother died in 1995 and we were very close. So close, that even starting to write a song for her I get choked up. Today I began one. Seby was outside in the pool and when she came in I said, Seb will you push the record. Well, somehow it had been on record for 38 minutes and the mike was almost off sound wise. I amped it up 30 decibels at least. I cut out the actual song which is a once through period. Lyrics, chords, synth all at the same time. You hear my fumbling with my guitar trying to hit the drum changes Got choked up a lot and in the chorus simply kleenexed out. I ran a Seby track to fill when I was well.. getting emotional.. Somewhere I know you heard this one Mom.. you always like my music rough.. unmixed..you always used to sneak in and record my songs. I guess you still are. Lyrics It was raining the night my mother died I was sitting holding hands Sitting by her side Thinking What that I would do when she was gone – away From me At the graveside there began the wind The clouds were dark and the rain came again Circles of people around the open grave I could not help her I could not save and I said I don’t believe – in love – anymore I don’t believe – in love – anymore I don’t believe – in love – anymore………. It was raining the night my mother died We were standing round the grave Looking at the side Handful of earth I cast into the blackness Watched her soul disappear into the abyss I don’t believe – in love – anymore I don’t believe – in love – (whispered) anymore It was raining the night my mother died I was sitting holding her hand Waiting at her side I was praying, praying That the blackness go away That God would maybe forgive me And put it off another day I don’t believe in love anymore I don’t believe in love anymore Goodbye – Goodbye Overall Rank:  Rank Unavailable Total Comments:  0 Listen:    Sorry, this submission has been archived.
