Worlds Blown Apart 03:31
lyrics
buy track
Can’t you see what you’ve left behind? Won’t you see the truth? There’s a broken heart, a punctured soul She is falling to pieces like you I held her hand while she cried Her soul is broken There’s nothing left inside I held her hair while she cried Is it too early to say that you’ll regret leaving this girl? Can’t you see your love was grand? And bigger than your fears? Right from the start she was not scared of crumbling to pieces with you I held her hand while she cried Her soul is broken, there’s nothing left inside I held her hair while she cried Is it too early to say that you’ll regret leaving this girl? You had built this life one day at a time You’d wash her hair She’d buy you whiskey and wine You had built this life one day at a time You were her everything, and now you’ve gone, worlds blown apart And given it all away, away, away I held her hand while she cried Her soul is broken, there’s nothing left inside I held her hair while she cried Is it too early to say that you’ll regret leaving this girl? Held her hair, I held her hair I held her hair It’s not too early to say that you’ll regret leaving this girl

Don’t Flirt 03:10

You say you’re crazy You say you’re tired Don’t flirt with darkness You say it’s all too hard You breathe on my neck Don’t flirt with darkness You say you’re gonna do it, well go on boy You say you’re gonna feel it, well go on! Well go on! If life is your playground Then I’m not your monkey bar friend Don’t flirt with darkness Decide on which road you’re gonna walk Decide on which hill you’re gonna climb I can’t be the girl to hold up your ego You say you’re gonna do it, well go on boy You say you’re gonna feel it, well go on! You say you’re gonna do it, well go on boy You say you’re gonna feel it, well go on! You say you’re gonna do it, well go on boy You say you’re gonna feel it, well go on! Well go on! Well go on! Well go on! Well go on! Well go on!

Little Lady 03:58

You missed out again my friend Never will you know where the road ends Your heart was torn yet your voice was born Wouldn’t let your spirit die in the face of loss What courage you have What strength you possess Little lady I’d like to walk in your shoes I’ve always been fascinated with you Little lady I’d like to walk in your shoes, I want to know why the sun hits you And then fades away You gave your all again my friend Every drop of love was given and spent How much you hoped he was the one Someone to adventure with, someone to hold It will happen, it will happen one day Little lady I’d like to walk in your shoes I’ve always been fascinated with you Little lady I’d like to walk in your shoes I want to know why the sun hits you And then fades away Thinking about how you live You are a mystery I want to solve So many things are unsaid What do you long for? What do you long for? Little lady I’d like to walk in your shoes I’ve always been fascinated with you Little lady I’d like to walk in your shoes I want to know why the sun hits you Little lady I’d like to walk in your shoes I’ve always been fascinated with you Little lady I’d like to walk in your shoes I want to know why the sun left you

Tell Me Why 04:20
lyrics

You came around caught up and so tired I won’t see you at your best Until you calm the storm inside So tell me why you can’t move forward Tell me why Is it because you choose to ignore it? Tell me why Tell me why, I thought you had everything Tell me why What’s lost in your heart can still be restored, tell me why How can I be the friend you need whilst your spirit is trapped inside? How can I? What are you, what, what, what are you, what are you gonna do? Cause I don’t know, what, what, what I can, what I can do for you Please tell me, What are you, what, what, what are you, what are you gonna do? Cause no-one knows what, what, what, what they can, what they can do for you Let the world carry you, you only have to believe it will We sat and talked, like it’d all been said before It’s hard to know what move to make When your friend ain’t calling out your name So tell me why you can’t move forward Tell me why Is it because you choose to ignore it? Tell me why Tell me why, I thought you had everything Tell me why What’s lost in your heart can still be restored, tell me why What are you, what, what, what are you, what are you gonna do? Cause I don’t know, what, what, what I can, what I can do for you Please tell me, What are you, what, what, what are you, what are you gonna do? Cause no-one knows what, what, what, what they can, what they can do for you Let the world carry you, you only have to believe it will You are frozen, you got caught up Why are you frozen? What got you so caught up? What are you, what, what, what are you, what are you gonna do? Cause I don’t know, what, what, what I can, what I can do for you Please tell me, What are you, what, what, what are you, what are you gonna do? Cause no-one knows what, what, what, what they can, what they can do for you What are you, what, what, what are you, what are you gonna do? Cause I don’t know, what, what, what I can, what I can do for you Please tell me, What are you, what, what, what are you, what are you gonna do? Cause no-one knows what, what, what, what they can, what they can do for you

Come Back To Me 04:12
lyrics

I wish you’d come back to me like the pouring rain Making puddles at my feet I wish you’d come back to me You are a leaf on the ground Having fallen from your tree You are a pebble cast way, rolling down some stream Rolling down some stream Oh I wish you’d come back to me like the pouring rain Making puddles at my feet I wish you’d come back to me I’m singing out to you through this torrential rain Have you managed to let go? Has your heart lead the way? You’ve fought long enough It’s time to sound your own horn For you are beautiful and worthy of the highest love Of the highest love Oh I wish you’d come back to me like the pouring rain Making puddles at my feet I wish you’d come back to me Come back to you, come back to me Come back to you, come back to me Come back to you, come back to me

Goodbye to a Friend 05:23
lyrics

You wrote a letter, left it by my door Every word and every sentence tore the skin off my bones You wrote a letter cursing all that I did Throughout a year it was my darkest hour I did the best that I could The best that I could You wrote a letter, there was no grace Every word and every sentence could not hide your disdain I am not perfect but I’d never shoot to kill With your weapon locked and loaded I was destined to bleed I hope you find your feet You brought me to my knees I hope you find your peace Such a shame, shame, shame, goodbye to a friend Shame, shame, shame, no one’s to blame I was out of breath, and you were out of line So many times I’ve been bullied and pushed Had to be the better girl and lift my heart out of the curb I am no stranger to conflict and pride I have learnt when it is worth the fight And when it’s best to stop and move on Shame, shame, shame, goodbye to a friend Shame, shame, shame, no one’s to blame I was out of breath, and you were out of line Shame, shame, shame, goodbye to a friend Shame, shame, shame, no one’s to blame I was out of breath, and you were out of I was out of breath, and you were out of I was out of breath, and you were out of line

Just A Little Shove 03:41
lyrics

I’m a fake, I’m a phoney I’m the girl that you think has it all sewn up when it’s all just hanging by a thread When you lose your confidence the walls can cave too close for comfort Marbles running loose in your mind When you fret too much about what others think What others do, you’ve lost that vital piece of you Your cool I want no push just a little shove I want to believe in myself I want no push just a little shove The devil on my shoulder is telling me to leap I’m a fake I’m a phony I’m the girl that you think has her life fool proof when the clown suits laid out on the bed When you doubt the strengths you have No pretty dress or sharpened wit Can stop the dialogue spinning in your head Am I a mess? I want no push just a little shove I want to believe in myself I want no push just a little shove The devil on my shoulder is telling me to leap (Repeat) I try to soothe my reeling mind as I hold myself arrest For losing the best parts of me again When you hum to the rhythm of life And when you sing to the daylight To bridge the divide, dark and light, is a hell of a ride I want no push just a little shove I want to believe in myself I want no push just a little shove The devil on my shoulder is telling me to leap I want no push just a little shove I want to believe in myself I want no push just a little shove The devil on my shoulder is begging me to leap

29 04:38
lyrics

Let’s be clear I’ve never wanted this so bad before When both of my hands were held And my heart was shared for two For two girls and one dream Let’s be clear I’ve never had the nerve To put my hand up and say ‘I’m the brightest spark’ ‘And I deserve your ears to listen to the sounds in my head’ ‘And the lyrics printed in my bed’ Let’s be clear Think it’s time, 29, think it’s time, think it’s time To travel down that road Where the flesh of my youth can be bought or sold 29, think it’s time, think it’s time Let’s be clear it’s only in the past few years I have stood up to say this is what I want To give these songs a chance, throw caution to the wind Let’s be clear, there’s always time to believe in your ambitions, to have others on your side 29, think it’s time, think it’s time To travel down that road Where the flesh of my youth can be bought or sold 29, think it’s time, think it’s time I found a way back home, I found a way to dive back in Can’t say how I knew another year wouldn’t pass me by I just had to wait, let the storm in my heart fall away All the best stories can wait Think it’s time 29, think it’s time, think it’s time To travel down that road Where the flesh of my youth can be bought or sold 29, think it’s time, think it’s time 29, think it’s time, think it’s time 29, think it’s time, think it’s time To travel down that road Where the flesh of my youth can be bought or sold 29, think it’s time, think it’s time

It’s hard to find a sorry when things turn bad, we hold it within us like a secret that cannot be share We can go from A to B without a sorry, we need to hear it so desperately We all hold matters of the heart so highly Stop driving the car and come rescue me Stop leaving so early Stop driving the car and come rescue me This week I need your kisses, I need your strength This week you need to rescue me It’s hard to find a thoughtful word when the pace is so fast it burns under your feet, as you face another day, life gets in the way A to B never a sorry, 1, 2, 3 I need to hear it Now is your time, why don’t you say it? You need to rescue me You need to rescue me You need to rescue me Stop driving the car and come rescue me Stop leaving so early Stop driving the car and come rescue me Stop driving the car, driving, stop, driving Stop, come rescue me You need to rescue me You need to rescue me You need tp rescue me Darling please see that Darling please see that Darling please see that

Time waits for no-one So why am I sitting here alone waiting for you? Where have you been my love? No-one to share my tera with, this cold, cold day has got me feeling lonely All I wanna do is be close with you Take your tired bones to bed It’s been so long since I’ve kissed your head Count the days, count the nights Count the hours I’ve wanted to take flight to be by your side So I’ve been the wanting mate, wanting touch, wanting warmth, I feel so caged, come stop me feeling lonely All I wanna do is be close with you Take your tired bones to bed It’s been so long since I’ve kissed your head It’s been so long All I wanna do is be close with you Take your tired bones to bed It’s been so long since I’ve kissed your head

about

The Conversation is the work of a musician who has committed to produce music that is true to themselves and their artistic vision. A musical annotation of conversations had with loved ones, friends, strangers and enemies. At moments stunningly clear, at others, shamelessly messy. Essential listening for the big dreamers and poets among us.
