about

This is a track from my forthcoming album Love, loss and hope. This is a song about Hope, particularly when it is elusive. It is based round the first verse of the lovely poem by the 19th century American poet, Emily Dickinson. I added some of my own words too.

lyrics

Sometimes I talk to myself
I speak the words I can't say to anyone else
Scared to admit I don't know my lines
Stumbling over some future farewell

Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in my soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops at all

Sometimes i look in her eyes
I see a place where there's no need for any more words
I don't know what's next, leave it to the fates
But in our garden there'll always be birds

Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in my soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops at all

I don't know what's next, leave it to the fates
But in our garden there'll always be birds
