Cocoon
02:46
|
|||
Spinning
In the still of the room
Fine threads
Making a cocoon
Winter
Is coming soon
Waiting
In a woven womb
Changing
Into
Something
New
Paper wings folded to fly
Taking off into the night
Taking off into the night
Delicate beautiful life
Dancing in a disco sky
I’m flying
A million dazzling lights
Confusion and the will to try
Confusion and the will to try
Paper wings folded to fly
Taking off into the night
Taking off into the night

Treasure Hunt
03:50
|
|||
Walking outside
Following the clues
To where treasure hides
Searching for new signs
Out of the blue
Broken glass shines
Everyone we lose
Are stars in the night
Hold on to the lifeline
The riddle leads to
A ray of sunlight
On the hard climb
Everyone we lose
Are stars in the night
Everyone we lose
Are stars in the night

You Know Me
02:21
|
|||
Remembering you
And everything we went through
I feel
I was lost one dark day
And life stole me away
I feel
You know me
And I miss you
Sometimes life is small
I'm too far for you to hear me call
I Feel
You know me

Blood
02:25
|
|||
Our whole lives carried by the flood
Pouring down the stairs like blood
Our new house is sinking in the mud
We can’t leave it’s in our blood
All my dreams try to take me back
To the place of safety
|

January
03:12
|
|||
Outside the trees are waving
Our faithful guardians
Bye now the light is fading
Constant through the night they stand
January is contemplating
The future is making plans
Now that the ice is melting
Revealing the land
The house is watching
Wide awake
Eyes unblinking
Keeping us safe
While up above the town
The hills are sleeping
And clouds are dreams

A Door Is Opening
02:41
|
|||
The lights are on in the houses
Where we retreat
A door is opening
And a woman is stepping out into the street
A door is opening
The radio is playing
A different kind of beat
I want to go out dancing
So many people to meet
A door is opening
|

Warrior
03:00
|
|||
There’s a bird in my room tonight
I have heard it will soon take to flight
As I lie in my bed
With all the world in my head
Drifting
Out in the garden
I am a warrior
Heart like a lion
With my bow and arrow
Treasure is hidden
Deep in the hollow of a tree
In my mind
The dream and the real dance away
To the tune of how I feel
The swing and the sway
Through the corridors in my mind
Afraid of what I might find
What’s around the corner?
Out in the garden
I am a warrior
Heart like a lion
With my bow and arrow
Treasure is hidden
Deep in the hollow of a tree
In my mind

The Runaway
02:38
|
|||
We're searching for the runaway
Shore to shore night and day
Blood hounds are on the scent
We will find you
No matter how far you went
We will rescue you
Send a sign our way
Are you fine today?
Detectives are on the trail
We will find you
This search will not fail
We will rescue you

Forget Me Not
02:55
|
|||
Forget me not for I shall never return
Going away in a while
To be a wave of sound
In the air and all around
Carried over the radio
Somewhere
Sometime
Forget me not for I shall never return
Going away in a while
To be a word in a thought
In the mind of someone
In a room in a house on a street
Somewhere
Sometime
Forget me not for I shall never return
Going away in a while
To be a cloud up high
In the clear blue sky
Cumulus floating
Somewhere
Sometime

Amy Duncan Glasgow, UK
"The Scottish multi-instrumentalist's eighth album sits between Cocteau Twins and the Blue Nile, its broad cinematic sweep, folktronic textures, crystalline vocals and lyrics imbued with introspection and memory-lane inventory-taking yielding moments of breathtaking beauty."
