about

This song is a snapshot of life at a moment of confusion. I was sitting on my bed with the sun streaming in and somehow this song fell on to my lap.

lyrics

Strange ‘8

I’m sittin’ easy, sittin’ on my bed
Lettin’ thoughts, fall out my head
It’s been a strange year, with my auntie’s death
First time to fall in love, first time to be left

So I’m sittin’ easy and I’m dreamin’ of the past
There’s nothing going on now but it’s going on too fast
Thinking of the future ‘cause she’s coming back again
This time I’m gonna keep my name

Since the summer in Africa well nothing’s been the same
Over there a part of me will always remain
Over here a part of me’s missing, but at least I can explain
Where and when it went away

So I’m sittin’ easy and I’m dreamin’ of the past........

I’m sittin’ easy, sittin’ on my bed
Lettin’ thoughts, fall out my head
Spring is over, unlike my broken heart
But summer’s coming and it’s bringing in a fresh start

So I’m sittin’ easy and I’m dreamin of the past.........

I came to Malawi in 2012 with a one-way ticket, a guitar and no money, carrying on from the hobo life I'd lived that year busking on the streets of Holland and Spain.

It's all in the stories ... more
