lyrics

Winter's coming
I can see the shadow fall beneath your eyes
Darkness falling
Tell me what you see when lit by candlelight
Does the curtain close when you move on
The fear appear like you belong in the rain

She's in trouble
Pull her up from oceans far beyond your dreams
Out of dayglo
Painting innocence they infiltrate the scene
And now I think she's gonna cry
Remember how we used to gather free

So rise and shine
Up in the Truth
And when it comes
You'll see the light find out

Several years pass
Can't hold back the feeling warm as we embrace
A winter smile
Outside everything's adrift, dark and separate
So go ahead and light the fire
We'll cancel out their damning lies tonight

Starlight's glowing
A hint of what's awake beyond radiation beams
Slow and easy
Let this love spread out and penetrate wicked means
And now it seems the day is near
So take your place and have no fear at all

Just rise and shine
Up in the Truth
And when it comes
You'll see the light
Find out

Rise and shine
Up in the Truth
And when it comes
You'll see the light
Just rise and shine
Up in the Truth
And when it comes
You'll see the light
Oh rise and shine
Up in the Truth
And when it comes
You'll see the light
Find out
Find out
Find out

about

David William Edinburgh, UK

My path has been different from the start. I have spent most of my life as a musician making recordings from my home but now find myself playing live more frequently, especially online. I have no desire to get signed and follow the conventional music industry path but Music is what I do, almost 24/7 and I am forging my own path so all support of my work is much appreciated. ... more

Remind Me Tomorrow
by Sharon Van Etten

Well, I was introduced to the song Comeback Kid acoustically on a Tiny Desk concert and it really caught my attention. From there I went to the album version and also liked one or two others. David William
