A haunting song about leaving a lover at dawn to depart for new adventures. Lyrics adapted from a poem by poet and translator Annie Rutherford (used with permission)

lyrics

Say it now and I will ease my head
from your shoulder
And slip silent from your bed
Shrug my jeans on in the dark,
Make my way across the ark,
By dawn I will be halfway round the world.

I'll numb my heart in neon, stone and wine
Of a bar that's underground
You'd never find
Perhaps one day you’ll hear from me
A postcard from across the sea
A letter from a place you'll never go

I'll send a drunken text on Hogmanay -
Don’t kid yourself, I shall be far away.
Always moving further on
Always carrying a song
That's light enough to take me anywhere
