    A limited edition CD copy of my debut album 'One Way Ticket', released in 2006. I only had a run of a few hundred pressed at the time, most of them were sold through CD Baby's physical CD store but that no longer exists and was awkward for me to sell through anyway because I had to first ship a batch to their warehouse in the US. When they ran out a few years ago I thought all the CD's had finally gone but recently came across a small leftover batch which I'm now selling independently here.

    There is a booklet designed by Kate (from SoulJahm) with lyrics, some photos and credits included with each CD copy.
    For a small extra fee you can have your CD copy signed by me.

    There is only a limited number of CDs left so they are available as long as stock lasts.

about

"Outside The Window" was written around 1999/2000 and is kind of about how you can be stuck in a room and feel isolated from the world outside and yet the whole world is inside that room as your own consciousness. It started as an indie rock pop folk song and developed a slight alternative country sound during recording.

lyrics

Reveal yourself to me I need to know
This fever's got me high I can't let go
But something always gets in the way
Leaves me with nothing to say
But now we stand in line and wait our turn
The afterthought will one day come to you

Outside the window
Rolling by with the open skies you face
Inside the day
Another view comes to fill the room you make

Quiet streets will lead you to your mind
If you carry on like this you might go blind
But time it takes you back to the start
Hoping for some change of heart
So you can dive right in and learn to swim
While they all stand and shake their heads at you

Outside the window
Rolling by with the open skies you face
Inside the day
Another view comes to fill the room you make

You're only seeing the back of it
You only want what you know you'll get to keep it right
Before you change your mind again just look

Outside the window
Rolling by with the open skies you face
Inside the day
Another view comes to fill the room you make
