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
