No More Sad Refrains
Background Information
'No More Sad Refrains' was one of the earliest songs written for Rendezvous and was actually first performed solo at the Fairport Convention concert at the Royal Albert Hall on June 10, 1975. That same week, Sandy performed the track live on Marc Ellington's TV show 'Marc Time'.
Lyrics
Here comes the morning how it pleases
It always brings me something new
Its golden light will wash away the dust of yesterday
If I try it may let me forget you
And when these winter days are over
I mean to set myself upon my feet
I see me as something that I have never been
And I'll pick up the pieces that will make the girl complete
I'll be smiling all the time at everybody
My friends will tell me I'm just not the same
I won't linger over any tragedies that were
And I won't be singing any more sad refrains
