A powerful gospel style upbeat song with haunting vocals that shoots an arrow straight into your soul.
Restitution was chosen to be the opening title track for U.S. soap opera "Legacy Hill" aired on internet television to some 20 million viewers. It remains an indie controlled song.

Restitution is about asking for forgiveness... for all the things you didn't do and deliberately forgot...

RESTITUTION
© L J Aston 2000
Intro:
Ooh ooh ah ah
Ba de ya de ya ah
Ooh ooh oh oh….
Hey baby…
Won’t you listen to me baby?
I got so much to say to you
Listen closely to me baby…
Now.
Vs 1:
All the things I wasn’t
All the things I’m not
All the things I didn’t do
Deliberately forgot.
All the times I wasn’t there
For all the times I did not care
Words of love I didn’t speak
Its RESTITUTION now I seek.
CHORUS: x 2
Vs 2
All the music went unplayed
All the nights I never stayed
For hope I never gave to you
When you so much needed me to
Compassion that I didn’t give
For judging where your feelings love
For words of love I didn’t speak
Its RESTITUTION now I seek.
Bridge:
There’s a way to turn it all around
There’s a love exists that’s so profound
Within your heart that tiny light
Is a candle burning oh, so bright
REPEAT Vs 1
CHORUS Inst x 8 bars
CHORUS x 3 scat vocals / guitar out.
