A live recording of the opening song I played at Pocklington Arts Centre in October 2025 when I supported Ruth Lyon. Many thanks to Ben Wall for providing the recording.
The Circle
I never watched the world escape
The clutches of my hands
Quite like anyone
And I never let the ground give way
To see me as I am
Just like anyone
With your words, you lay me down
With your words, oh you lay me down
Why, hold on to the day again
It’s passed you by
Despite your reverence
Lie staring at the circle again
It takes so long
To pick it up and start again
With your words, you pass me by
With your words, oh you pass me by
With your words, you pass me by
Oh now, now you pass me up again

Stay a night in the blue hotel 'till the sun comes over the hill, and the city goes still...

Wind in the morning, he’s wearing thin. Puts on a raincoat, ready when the walls cave in...
