about

Created for Secret Samol 2023/24, based on the prompt of two Friends at the Table characters from different seasons meeting up for a drink on the beach together.

lyrics

What if we met beside the beach underneath a blue sky dome
Look out over that blue channel we could talk about our homes
Heard you were a musician before you helped the saplings grow
A regency of brilliance lit the world up with your shows

It’s the heart that continues
Though it’s crushed time after time
They say the part that continues
To live forever is divine

What if we met beside the beach, out there on that pirate coast
With the legacy of Brighton we could talk about our ghosts
And the particles in motion, the fulcrum and the lever
A heart of hollow blood that you try to hold together

All the good that is in you
Telling everyone you’re fine
It’s the heart that continues
To live forever is divine

All of this happened before
(It will happen many times)
Doe we get to end the war
(We just pick sides we just draw lines)
And some problems are perennial
(We choose our fights and we choose well)
But this break will be millennial
(A turning wheel a ringing bell)

And the ones who taught us honour
All their memories still shine
Now no-one can take them from us
To live forever is divine
It’s the heart that continues
Though it’s crushed time after time
They say the part that continues
To live forever is divine

What if we met beside the beach, when this war finally ends?
Look across the water, raise a glass to absent friends
