| Comments: | I
met three of the Go-Go's (Charlotte, Jane and Belinda) at Chateau de Marouatte,
a castle in the Aquitaine region of France owned by Miles Copeland, manager
of Sting (and previously The Police). Several times each year Miles invites
30 songwriters to "The
Castle" for a 10-day songwriting event. I attended on three ocassions. In June 1997, after one of the "castle" events, I got together with Charlotte and Jane in Los Angeles. We wrote and demo'd a first draft of "Here You Are" in Charlotte's home studio. The song underwent a radical re-write before being included on the Go-Go’s 2001 album "God Bless The Go-Go's". Jane and I also wrote the song "Fallen" at Miles' castle (with co-writer Trey Bruce). It appeared on Jane's 2001 solo album, "Kissproof World". |

| Lyrics: | Such a
hard life lesson it's so strange Never trusting things will be okay But even if you leave Nothing's gonna change If you lose control and burn a bridge too far No matter where you go Here you are Here you are Fall down screw up get up run away I know what's behind the things you do and say So just look at me And I'll show you what I see When you lose control and burn a bridge too far No matter where you go Here you are Here you are The love you seek The love you own Is it so fleeting? Are we really all just alone? This moment in space and time Is all that we can know When you lose control and burn a bridge too far No matter where you go Here you are Here you are When you lose control and burn a bridge too far No matter where you go In my heart Here you are |
