About

‘Close Quarters’ is about stripping away all the fancy stuff and taking these songs back to the bare essentials – how they were conceived. I love how it brings out all the vocal layers and exposes some of the more hidden and delicate elements of the tracks. There’s a heightened sense of emotion which clarifies the feel of the songs – ‘Willow’ seems sweeter, and the others much more poignant.

Lyrics:

Willow [Acoustic]

When the trees wave
I sing and spin my name
And draw circles
With my toes

When the clouds part
Revealing what was dark
Still spinning
As the stars burn echoes in the sky

Don’t weep for me, Willow

In the dawnlight
And through the morning mist
I feel the softest tears
Fall heavy as the dew

Don’t weep for me, Willow

Shh now
Don’t cry
We’re here
All around you is so much
Hope and love
One day you’ll be grown
And everything will be beautiful
And you’ll fill the world with light

Don’t weep for me, Willow

Nobody Knows [Acoustic]

A sea so calm
The surface flat like wine
Biding your time
And counting your knives
Yet, you mean me no harm?
Mean me know harm

Nobody knows how I go
Catching my tears on my toes
Nobody knows how I go
Nobody knows how I go

A blossom brief
Reflecting my memory
Wearing me thin
ver everything
Unlike you I do forgive
Unlike you I do forgive

Nobody knows how I go
Catching my tears on my toes
Nobody knows how I go
Nobody knows how I go

I’m up at last
Holding on to my reverie
Did I mess up my mind?
Did I waste all that life?

Nobody knows how I go
Catching my tears on my toes
Laughing with lumps in my throat
Wearing my wounds every show
Nobody knows how I go
Catching my tears on my toes
Nobody knows how I go
Nobody knows how I go
Nobody knows how I go
Nobody knows how I go

Not Enough [Acoustic]

Broken faces
Visage of the ages
Every time we visit
All my visionary
And your provisionary
Can’t take either with it

Only you can make your mind up
Only I can see there’s pastures greener

Oh confess it all
You’re professional
Your mind as light as a feather
You always conquer mine
With your concubine
Disguised behind each letter

If only you could make your mind up
If only I could see there’s pastures greener

It’s not enough to cry
Calling on my appetite
It’s not enough for your
It’s not enough to cry
Calling on my appetite
It’s not enough

For your inconsideration
I’ll raise a lifetime of regret
And count each minute
Hell bent on the ground
Things I hadn’t found before
I thought I’d finished

It’s not enough to cry
Calling on my appetite
It’s not enough for your
It’s not enough to cry
Calling on my appetite
It’s not enough for your

To think I thought you’d fall for me
To think I’d fall for your
To think I thought you’d fall for me
To think I’d falter for your

It’s not enough to cry
Calling on my appetite
It’s not enough for your
It’s not enough to cry
Calling on my appetite
It’s not enough, for your

Zelda Mae [Acoustic]

Slumbering seaside
Sun kicking
Up, up awaking
Shedding some light on
Feel I’ve been run through the hollow
In spite of devotion
Keeping me hooked on

All I want is some peace of mind
Some peace of mind

So far been ripping
To find me some patches of wisdom
Something to float on
Been hiding
Been fighting my thoughts for a while now
Keeping the lights on

When all I want is some peace of mind
Some peace of mind

Dressing with colourful language to cover
My anguish
Keeping the lights on
Left here with only the North Wind that
Roars from the mountains
Keeping me hooked on

Taking my everything
Teaching me nothing
Nothing at all
Nothing at all

When all I want is some peace of mind
Some peace of mind
And all I want is some peace of mind

Taking my everything
Teaching me nothing
Nothing at all
Taking my everything
Teaching me nothing
Nothing at all
Nothing at all
