about

Dropping the top string of his acoustic to D, Iain sent this stripped down little piece to Marc, who sent back a vocal and a lyric which bowled the other over. Keeping this song stripped back allows the power of Marc's deliver and honest lyric to the fore.

lyrics

Leftie to leftie,
Miller to Bird,
Player to prayer,
It’s all so absurd.
Packing up sorrows in an old rust-up case
Going down to goodwill
On bird in my place.

Strip it on down to the bone and the marrow.
I pray for tomorrow.
I left that town so as not to feel so hollow;
To not feel so erased.

Irish girl, mid-western world,
I went spinning like a top.
And so it follows, she left the sweetest test,
Overwhelmed my senses, filling every space.

Strip it on down to the bone and the marrow.
I pray for tomorrow.
I left that town so as not to feel so hollow;
To not feel so erased.

Now the rain is pounding on the hill
Would I be so brave to go outside?
Wash away the sins of Jack and Jill,
Could I fetch that water if I tried?

Strip it on down to the bone and the marrow.
I pray for tomorrow.
I left that town so as not to feel so hollow;
To not feel so erased.

Leftie to leftie-
Miller to Bird.
