Danger Ahead 04:32
on the end of my street there's an enormous precipice stay inside or swan dive into some kind of abyss? it could be there's some kind of danger ahead death by suffocation or something more quixotic? so take your pick it could be there's some danger ahead I'm always talking to myself and I'm afraid that I don't need anybody else, master of a stranger's wealth, always talking to myself

-written by ELO- The city streets are empty now The lights don't shine no more And so the songs are way down low Turning, turning, turning A sound that flows into my mind The echoes of the daylight Of everything that is alive In my blue world I turn to stone When you are gone I turn to stone Turn to stone When you're coming home I can't go on The dying embers of the night A fire that slowly fades till dawn Still glows upon the wall so bright Turning, turning, turning The tired streets that hide away From here to everywhere they go Roll past my door into the day In my blue world Turn to stone When you are gone I turn to stone Yes, I'm turnin' to stone Cause you ain't comin' home Why ain't you comin' home If I'm turnin' to stone You've been gone for so long And I can't carry on Yes, I'm turnin', I'm turnin' I'm turnin' to stone The dancing shadows on the wall The two step in the hall Are all I've seen since you've been gone Turning, turning, turning Through all I sit here and I wait I turn to stone, I turn to stone You will return again someday To my blue world

about

I've been messing with "Danger Ahead" for so long, I have like 10 different versions. It never quite sounds right but this version is close for now. Inspired by Hitchcock, the Sugarcubes, the sound of a lot of bugs at night in the summer, a steel coffee spoon in my kitchen

"Turn To Stone" is something I typically play during live sets; it is, of course an ELO cover.
