Scott Michael wrote and recorded a beautiful electronica track called "Man Without Reason" which I felt could be turned into a song. He agreed to let me try and this is the result. "Man Without Reason" was Scott's original title for the instrumental track. I chose to keep it because I thought it suggested a compelling image - a man so deeply obsessed by love that he has lost all sense of reality. I added the lyrics and melody line and, lastly, the background vocals with the slightly Brazilian feel.
This is our first collaboration so let us know what you think. Please write your comments in the Guestbook.
Man Without Reason (song version)
Words & Music by Scott Michael & Robin Frederick
Sleepless, all your nights are sleepless
And your days turn inside out.
Possessed, you are a man possessed and
All you do is wonder
What she's doing now...
You are a man without reason
You are a man obsessed
You call it love, but is it love?
Or is it just madness
Beloved, she is the Beloved
And you write her name in blood
Descending, like the moon descending
She leaves your sky so empty
When you want so much...
You are a man without reason
You are a man possessed
You call it love, but is it love?
Or is it just madness
