I WANT TO BE FREE FROM THIS BODY

Not Even In July

Swallowing Daggers

Devon Guthrie, Soprano with Nicholas Roehler, Piano

Mother of the celebrated singer songwriter Nick Drake, Molly Drake was a singer songwriter in her own right. The influence of her poetry and compositions is undeniable when listening to the music of her son. She never published any of her poems or songs during her lifetime. She wrote and recorded these songs in her home after WWII. There exists a recording of Molly Drake singing and playing this song in the living room of the country home she shared with her husband, who can be heard operating the recording equipment. When I first heard this song, I fell in love with it's wistful nostalgic tone and imagery.

I Remember

We tramped the open moorland in the rainy April weather
And came upon the little inn that we had found together
The landlord gave us toast and tea and stopped to share a joke
And I remember firelight
I remember firelight
I remember firelight
And you remember smoke

We ran about the meadow grass with all the harebells bending
And shaking in the summer wind a summer never-ending
We wandered to the little stream among the river flats
And I remember willow trees
I remember willow trees
I remember willow trees
And you remember gnats

We strolled the Spanish marketplace at 90 in the shade
With all the fruit and vegetables so temptingly arrayed
And we can share a memory as every lover must
And I remember oranges
I remember oranges
I remember oranges
And you remember dust

The autumn leaves are tumbling down and winter's almost here
But through the spring and summertime we laughed away the year
And now we can be grateful for the gift of memory
For I remember having fun
Two happy hearts that beat as one
When I had thought that we were "we"
But we were "you and me".

I'm A Dream Fighting Out Of A Man

I'm a dream fighting out of a man 
Man, I'm a stream rolling unto a bend 
I'm whatever is around the corner 
I'm wherever my history says 

I'm only ever asking "what happens when I [ ]?" 
...that's what happens when I/I'm a vision in my eye 
my eye decides 
and at the centre of it all the Universe alive 

This cosmic force that runs in my veins 
I'm a human second and a life by claim 
my mischief is in hanging on 
I was born once into a raging storm 

It's not my fault 
I've been dressed in my time 
each weight that welts the wild of my mind 
I'm happening now 
if not for me it's to see what He makes of himself 

I'm walking on a mirror 
I'm biting my hand 
I've swum in your spit 
and pawed at your plans 
I'm listing still in flow divided 
my Captain will that this is what time is 

There's a space inbetween the silent divides 
like how the World fades in as the piano dies 
I've resurrected a million times 
I'm born every minute 
and die every night 

I'm here to find the melody 
impose a lesser self 
address the false assertion that there's anybody else 
my action is the mauling of a temporal confine 
that sees itself repeated infinitely in every direction 

I'm walking on a mirror 
I'm biting my hand 
I've swum in your spit 
and clawed at your land 
I'm listing still in flow divided 
my Captain will that this is what time is
