Winter's Knife (lyrics)
Weathered by the autumn wind
Laid open to the sun
Scarred by the bite of winters knife
Our love is left undone

The stubble ploughed beneath the earth
That could hold me ever more
I weave along the Elsick Burn
As it winds down to the shore

Chorus
Weathered by the autumn wind
Laid open to the sun
Scarred by the bite of winters knife
Our love is left undone

Your heart laid fallow, fast, unchained
From the promises we cried
The North Sea swells with kelp and ghosts
As I pull against the tide

The summer dust turned heavy
By a cloak of soothing rain 
As I row towards the pregnant storm
Seeking solace from my pain

Chorus

The broken gunwales breached by waves
God taunts me from above
The nets and creels lie abandoned at my feet
Forsaken like my love

And the peace I seek unfolds at last
Blistered hands begin to burn
The sea washes 'cross my pallid skin
And decides if I'll return

Chorus

Winters Knife

Words and music: Carey Lunan
Carey Lunan: vocal, mandola
Kev McKidd: steel string guitar
John Hardman: classical guitar

Rowan (lyrics) 
Bewitched by indifference
You forget my name
Frozen in time
It all feels the same
Your eyes once bright
They have lost their flame
There's so much still to say
 
But the bonds are yours and mine
I know them well
And I won't be left behind
The brighter days will shine
 
A million miles
You're so far away
Enchanting and childlike
You laughed at the day
How could you be right there
But still so far away?
There's so much more to say
 
But the bonds are yours and mine
You knew them well
And you won't be left behind
The brighter days will shine
 
So many adventures that we still want to share
We paint your nail, run fingers through your hair
Tell you our stories, sing you our songs
Our bittersweet affairs 
 
Remember well
We plant a roman tree
Always the protector
You still comfort me
And we'll bury hopes and fears
Our dreams, uncertainties, in the ground
We've found,your peace
 
And the bonds are yours and mine
We knew them well
And we won't be left behind
The brighter days still shine

In memory of mum...

Our set also includes interpretations of songs by Joni Mitchell, Sandy Denny, Pentangle, Carole King, James Taylor, Townes Van Zandt, Gillian Welch, Tim Buckley and CSNY among many others.
