lyrics

Grieving on the banks of the Landwehrkanal Under the shade of this weeping willow
The sun beats down and my heart caves in Drowning in the waves of the oncoming sorrow Trying to take shelter like thereʼs no tomorrow But the sun beats down and my heart caves in Soon youʼll be gone youʼll be carried along
Like a leaf on the breeze of someone elsʼs song I sit here alone far too many miles from home On the banks of the Landwehrkanal
Tears roll down seep into the ground
The song of the Berlin sparrows all around
And the sun beats down and my heart caves in
Youʼre the shelter from the storm, the jewel in the crown Iʼm a broken Unicorn in a Altbau town
The sun beats down and my heart caves in
Now you are gone
And I made my way back home
Like a leaf on the breeze of someone elsʼs song I sit here alone
Dreaming of what was once my home
Oh those banks of the Landwehr
Take me back to the Landwehr
Take me back to the banks of the Landwehrkanal Oh those banks of the Landwehr
Take me back to the Landwehr
Take me back to the banks of the Landwehrkanal Oh those banks of the Landwehr
Take me back to the Landwehr
Take me back to the banks of the Landwehrkanal

"Gorgeous sonic blends of 70’s English folk revival, lush Laurel Canyon haze, rustic, acoustic charm and Celtic cool." Dave Franklin.
"A voice of scrubstone-denim and mulberry wine". Mercurial, brooding, haunting & pretty, country tinged electric folk laced with darkness. Biting, eloquent lyrics that reveal withering accounts of doomed romance, faded dreams and dark obsessions. ... more
