lyrics

You are all I want to be
I love the way you dress, you are so fancy
And I took a shot oh at guessing
I’d do anything to get your blessing

And I didn’t know it was cold where we go
I was holding so tightly on to your coat
In the throes of this world, we had to throw those bonds away
These momentary fears not going to stay

You’re not much for talking
You prefer a man who acts over one who speaks
Sometimes you have this scowl upon your face
A mathematical intensity you can’t displace

We are branching out from this tree
We are branching out from this tree

You are immersed in what you do
Sometimes I feel that I am so far from you
But on every morning of every big day
You never fail to be the first person who calls me

And I didn’t know it had to be cold where we go
I wanted to hold oh so tightly on to your coat
In the throes of this world, I should have thrown that bond away
The fears will go, but you always meant to stay

We are branching out from this tree
We are branching out from this tree

The Other Half of Everything
by Martin John Henry

At first glance, the landscape on the cover of Martin John Henry’s The Other Half of Everything is a scene of complete isolation. This is Scotland. An archetypal rugged landscape of hills and lochs, as far as the eye can see. On closer inspection, there are some signs of habitation: buildings, roads, farms… but they … Continue reading Album of the Week: The Other Half of Everything → Bandcamp Album of the Day Nov 21, 2011
