Uyea Sound by The Cure
Unofficial Lyrics by Andrew Barger's Official Facebook Page
Wish 30th Anniversary Deluxe Edition https://amzn.to/3TIHOu3
As Europe is enjoying The Cure’s Songs for a Lost World Tour, Robert Smith announced the forthcoming Wish 30th Anniversary Deluxe Edition album. It includes 24 previously unreleased tracks. And all of Curedom did a little happy dance. Robert Smith admitted that he had difficulty with the words (poetry), resulting in many of the new tracks being instrumentals. This struck me as unfortunate for someone I believe to be one of the best living poets, of the one I have read. The words of “Lovesong,” from Disintegration are beautiful in their simplicity and immensely compelling. “Plainsong,” from the same album, is a sonnet by Robert Smith to his wife, Mary. Here are my thoughts on “Plainsong.” https://disintegrationnation-cureblog.blogspot.com/...
Wish 30th Anniversary Deluxe Edition drops on November 25, 2022. Fortunately, The Cure has released a few songs already. One of which is the highly anticipated instrumental, “Uyea Sound” that is haunting in its soundscapes. Below is a poem (unauthorized) I wrote to accompany the music of “Uyea Sound” by The Cure.
Uyea Sound
Unofficial Lyrics by Andrew Barger
It’s been twenty sunsets
Since you left me,
On the Island Uyea.
Hush now,
Waves are breaking against Uyea
And winds speak its name.
Everyone is set
On changing the world.
I just wanted to change you.
Hush now,
Waves are breaking against Uyea
And winds speak its name.
Take it all in stride, they said.
Yea, Uyea boy, take it all in stride.
It’s in you I confide.
Hush now,
Waves are breaking against Uyea
And winds speak its name.
I return to where you left me
Twenty sunsets ago.
On the island Uyea
Hush now,
Waves are breaking against Uyea
And winds speak its name.
