about

Wow, what a voice ! I was sitting in my Bristol studio, somewhat close to heaven when I first heard Julee Cruise's vocals on my electronic waltz – the music that was to become our collaborative song Fly Away. The song now appears in an expanded, more spacious & hugely poignant version, a year on since Julee's death. The lyrics take on an even greater resonance, exploring as they do, the magnetic pull of longing & the hope for a sense of peace through the release from suffering. And listening to Fly Away now, I feel Julee's wonderful spirit so close & so very present. And I hear the voice of an angel & that wicked laugh once more !

Fly Away - Lyrics by Julee Cruise

So I'm never gonna come back no no I'm never gonna come back no no I'm never gonna come back no cause You'll never be the same
So I'm never gonna come back no no I'm never gonna come back no no I'm never gonna come back no
Dust to dust human remains
Think I'll fly away
Where its safe & warm Think I'll fly away
Where the stars are born
Think I'll leave this place Thats so worn & torn Gotta leave this space Where I'm feeling old
So I'll fly away
To a beautiful place
Yes I'll fly away
Vanish in the haze
Its my state of mind
Where I feel so confined I'll just fall asleep
And my dreams will appear Soaring above
In a cloud of love
We will fly....

Goodbye Nevada Goodbye Bill Clinton Goodbye 30th Street Goodbye Court TV
So I'm never gonna come back no no... (Chant) Yes I'll fly away
I'm a prisoner here In a world of fear
