lyrics

i always hate the morning after, lipstick on the champagne glass
your hair upon the pillow telling truth where you were lying
it's not that daylight brings surprise, i've often seen those jagged lines
the sunlight writes upon the wall, the patterns of the blind

but sometimes dear it appears so clear
that where you are's so far from here

i always seem to end up in this empty room again
with nothing but my endless contemplations
and its like as if you were a pill as if i had no force of will
to overcome regrettable temptations

but i can see that it aint me
the one with whom you're bound to be

though your leaving is not what i would choose
it's clear the converse serves no use
to keep you locked away for selfish reasons
and though you show you're fond in part
i do believe to own your heart
is something just like trying to own the seasons

and so it goes
the reddest rose
the sharpest spine
so often grows

Everything about this album screams 'long lost classic from way back in the golden era of songwriting'. Well, everything except the fact that it came out only a few years back. Jeremy / HI54LOFI

Whilst gently paddling along this glistening river with the sun warming my back I found contentment. At a peaceful spot I set up camp and breathed in the beauty........."I think I'll stay a while" I said to myself. Thank you for this peaceful spot Mr Henderson :0) Martin Shields

The sweetness of the harmony and beauty of the tracks made me have to purchase this album. The vocals float like ethereal sprites with compelling warmness yet a certain captivating sadness as well. This is what Americana should sound like... this is what country should sound like... for it's so real and emotionally delivered... yet absolutely gorgeous. theexplodingogre
