about

No More is a valedictory for our friend Anthony K Ashton 1954 - 2003

lyrics

A message in my inbox was there one day; the mail it rocks
Somewhere out on the ether wave, he’s not sleeping as the daylight breaks
Many miles away across the world’s great sea
Like a stranger out of time, a friend holds out a hand to me
And while the worlds asleep we talk reality, music technology
Talk of the long off days before they fade away, we’re strangers No More

We met up in the city beside the bay; he drove down that day
And though so many years have passed, he was still the same he was still a laugh
We whiled away the hours with technology
Said our farewells In the evening light outside the car pound
The city comes alive; we’re making up for time, and while the sun still shines
And all those long off days; don’t seem so far away, we’re strangers No More

There must be a reason; there must be a cause
There’s gotta be some logic and a reason for it all

A message in my inbox was there that day; the mail it sucks
Somewhere out on a distant highway, he’s still sleeping as the daylight breaks
The road to oblivion takes many paths
He’s going on a journey, and he’s not coming back
Forever now he sleeps; no more reality, music finality
And all those long off days; seem so far away, he won’t be there No More
The emails have all gone; and they won’t be back again, he’s not sending them anymore
And the technology; falls silent finally, It won’t be heard No More
And all those long off days; they all will fade away, we’re strangers now once more
And all the songs we sang; forgotten now and gone, they won’t be heard No More
No More
