Let Me Die (Inspector Sands)
by @rshakesp
Liner Notes
the 11th song in my album '12 short nonsense songs about love' and this one deals with the obsessive type... I was waiting for a train in London the other day when the Inspector Sands announcement came over the Tannoy and I managed to grab it into a voice memo - it was too good not to use somewhere.
Lyrics
I can't have you anymore
Not in my life
Not in yours
I love you so much you see
I'd die for you
If you want me
If you love me
you'd let me die
Don't cry for me when I'm gone
I'm not your lover
I'm not the one
Leave memory completely
I'd die for you
If you want me.

This song kicks. It's catchy as hell. Great production with the Inspector Sands announcement. And thanks for sharing your thoughts on "Chesapeake Tides." I may do a wholesale rearrangement post-FAWM.

Ah the old Inspector Sands announcement, an absolute staple for those of us unlucky enough to have spent time travelling in the UK. It’s a lovely touch in an absolute diamond of a song! Really well-produced, and the plaintive ‘if you love me, let me die’ refrain is amazing (if a little harrowing). Really enjoyed this one!
