Wait for Me by Dolly Mavies with full band performed and recorded at Grand Chapel Studios.

Lyrics

I've been waiting in line 
Waiting for your call
And by you I mean me
I don't need you at all
I've been listening loud
Listening to all I hear
And my eyes have been closed
For too long to disappear 
'Cause I'm still here 
I'm still here

I'll walk into the ocean 
And waves and I'll consume the sea
I'm not waving but drowning
Why don't you come and save me
I'm all skin and bone 
Lines of hope and little fate
We walk into the ocean and watch as our lives break
Break for me
Break for me 

Breathe in breathe out
Breathe in breathe out
Breathe in breathe out
Breathe in breathe out

I've stayed by your side
I heard what you had to say
But I've been living someone else's life 
I can't live this way
All these sticks and stones
You've been throwing 
Bringing me down
Well there's got to be one more reason to stick around
So stay for me
Stay for me
Wait for me 

Breathe in breathe out
Breathe in breathe out

And stay for me 
Stay for me
And wait for me 

Breathe in breathe out
Breathe in breathe out

Wait For Me Live at Grand Chapel Studios

I'M A TRAINED ORATOR
A SKILLED MANIPULATOR
I WAS BORN INTO THE RANKS
WHILE YOU WERE BRED FOR FOOD BANKS
NEVER EVER HAVE I EVER HAD TO WANT FOR ANYTHING IN MY LIFE

I AM A NATURAL LEADER
YOU ARE THE TRUE BELIEVERS
I SEE THEM SCRAPING ON THEIR KNEES
THEY RECOGNISE I’M THE ELITE 
NEVER EVER HAVE I EVER HAD TO WORK FOR ANYTHING IN MY LIFE

HUMAN RECIPROCATOR

I’M A PUBLIC SPEAKER
FORGIVE MY MISDEMEANOURS
MY MASCULINITY - A CRUTCH FOR MEDIOCRITY 
NEVER EVER HAVE I EVER HAD TO BEG FOR ANYTHING IN MY LIFE

I AM A NATURAL LEADER
YOU ARE THE TRUE BELIEVERS
SO DON’T LISTEN TO RUMOUR
(WELL DRESSED LIKE THAT WOULD YOU BELIEVE HER?)
NEVER EVER HAVE I EVER HAD TO REPENT FOR A THING IN MY LIFE

HUMAN RECIPROCATOR
HUMAN RECIPROCATOR

I HAVE ALL THE DATA
HUMAN RECIPROCATOR
I HAVE FRIENDS IN SUCH HIGH PLACES
THAT MY PRIVILEGE ERASED IT
NEVER EVER HAVE I EVER HAD TO ANSWER FOR A THING IN MY LIFE

I CAN RADIATE IT
I WON’T RECIPROCATE IT
I WILL ASK OF YOU THE THINGS I’LL NEVER EVER EVER DO
NEVER EVER HAVE I EVER HAD TO WAIT FOR ANYTHING IN MY LIFE

HUMAN RECIPROCATOR
HUMAN RECIPROCATOR
HUMAN RECIPROCATOR

I'M A SKILLED ORATOR
A TRAINED MANIPULATOR
I SEE THEM FALLING AT MY FEET
THE MAN THE WOMEN WANT TO MEET
NEVER EVER HAVE I EVER HAD TO ASK FOR ANYTHING IN MY LIFE

WHILE YOU WERE BRED FOR FOOD BANKS
I WAS BORN INTO THE RANKS
I SEE YOU SCRAPING ON YOUR KNEES
YOU RECOGNISE I’M THE ELITE 
NEVER EVER HAVE I EVER HAD TO WAIT FOR ANYTHING IN MY LIFE

LYRICS:
Once upon another age
We were shadows on the wall
Write our story on the page
Cite the cruelty of it all

I had nothing but my name
When you met me in the hall
Your face burning like a flame
My heart learning how to fall

I've seen your fear
Love could prevail
But I dream too, dear
We both are frail

You'll find me dancing in the demimonde
I cast my heart upon the sea
You told me love would always carry on
But love is not enough for me

Foolishly, we were enthralled
Everything began to gleam
All this haste to see me fall
Would you waste another scene

Wretched hours of the night
They belong to us alone
I won't plead to make this right
We don't need to make it home

I know your fear
Love could prevail
I'll show you, here
We both are frail

I have seen the light again
It faded in your eyes
If you stay until the end
Then I will keep your lies

And the crystal that you shatter
Would shine brightly in a ring
Could you tell me that I matter
Even after everything

You'll find me dancing in the demimonde
I cast my heart upon the sea
Then told my lover he could sail upon
The tide that turns away from me

What is left to fill your cup
Bittersweet this shade of green
Take your grief and drink it up
Find relief there in a dream

If I pass you in the street
Or you see me on the stage
Lay your flowers at my feet
Press our hours in a page

I've seen your fear
Love could prevail
But I dream too, dear
We both are frail

When we dancers in the demimonde
There was a moment I was free
Now I wonder at the days long gone
And if you still remember me

I will be dancing in the demimonde
Until the night falls on the sea
Without an answer I will carry on
Somethings are never meant to be

NOTES:
Demimonde:
French, literally ‘half-world’. (in 19th-century France)
The class of women considered to be of doubtful morality and social standing. A group of people considered to be on the fringes of respectable society.

Alexandre Dumas coined.
He wrote La Dame aux Camélias, (the basis for the movie Moulin Rouge)inspired by Marie Duplessis.

They also talk about the demimonde in Penny Dreadful (the tv show that quotes poetry). 

Anyway this song has a whole narrative thing happening. 
I might post that on my blog when I actually post my blog.

Dancers in the Demimonde

Emma Gatrill has shared her new single ‘Seed’, a poignant and uplifting moment from her upcoming album featuring  stellar contributions from Rozi Plain and Kate Stables (This Is The Kit), Rachael Dadd and more. The Brighton-based harpist, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist’s new album ‘Come Swim’ arrives 24th November 2023 via Willkommen Records. 
   
A manifesto for kindness, ‘Seed’ speaks to the challenging times we find ourselves in, suggesting ways we can all make a difference by sticking to our principles and striving to be the best possible versions of ourselves - “Help a stranger out like a friend in need…Don’t be frightened to stand up for what you believe”.

Aided by co-producer and partner Marcus Hamblett, though new album ‘Come Swim’ was produced and recorded at home (or Bear Mountain Studios, as the credits have it), Gatrill was able to call on a truly impressive cast of collaborators for the album. Along with Stables, Plain and Dadd, other guests include Conor O’Brien (Villagers), Mark Lockheart (Polar Bear, Radiohead’s Kid A), Rachel Horwood (Trash Kit, Bas Jan), and Thom Mills (Skinny Lister). 

Since 2017’s acclaimed Cocoon, Gatrill has steadily earned her place as one of UK music’s best-kept secrets. From singing on Nick Cave & Warren Ellis’ film soundtrack ‘Wind River’, to playing a remarkable range of instruments for others (including Lucy Rose, Broken Social Scene, Samantha Crain, David Thomas Broughton and more), Emma has distilled this wealth of experience into creating a captivating sound entirely of her own; a logical progression that culminates in the fervent beauty and wonder of ‘Come Swim’. 

Emma Gatrill on ‘Seed’:
“‘Seed’ attempts to represent how tough life can be. We may sow a thousand seeds but only one may survive and grow, but that one can be everything. That one idea can blossom if we nurture it. That one kind gesture from a stranger can change how the whole day goes. Stay strong, stand up for what you believe and don’t feel afraid to ask if you need help. That’s how we all learn. It was an honour to have Kate, Rozi and Rachael all add vocals to this tune. I’ve enjoyed playing music with all three of them so much over the years and learnt a lot musically from them. I really wanted this song to have a feeling of camaraderie and a sense of togetherness.  Kate's wild recorder and ocarina also sonically embody one aspect of the song's meaning for me - the continual cacophony of life perhaps! To find answers we have to ask questions. To find kindness we have to be kind. To grow we have to learn. Seed is about trying to be the best possible version of us in a world which is tough.”

Kate Stables (This Is The Kit) on ‘Seed’:
“Emma Gatrill is one of the most talented people I know. We've played together a lot in various projects and so I was very happy and honoured to be asked to contribute to this track. I especially loved having the freedom to add whatever I felt like and anyone who knows me beyond my own band knows I love adding ocarinas and recorders - which is what I did and which Emma generously left in! This track is filled with so many people that I love. Plus, I just can't get enough of "out of the dark into the light, into the light of the morning". A message we all need to remind ourselves of on a daily basis. Good one, Gatrill!”

Rachael Dadd on ‘Seed’:
“This song is like a glorious seed sprouting towards golden sunlight. I’m so happy to hear Emma bringing her third album into the world in all its harmonious joy and honoured to sing here, and massively grateful to Emma for all she’s brought to my music over the last 12 years”

Seed

Non Secreter

Plato had it easy
Right place right time
To write down his lessons
And make them last through time
I'm lacking inspiration
I'm already past my prime
The grass was always greener
When you're on the other side
I don't know what to do
In this world

So I did my research
I looked it up online
I asked Jeeves
He shrugged and deeply sighed
He said, "you're not like Sinatra,
No, you don't have his eyes
And you don't like dancing
When your feet are getting tired."
I don't know what to do
In this world
I don't know what to do
In this world
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do

I don't want the dreaming
I don't want the hope
I gave my all already
And now I wish I'd never spoke
If "everyone's an artist"
Then who is left to gaze?
Will the seats lie empty
When we're standing on that stage?
I don't know what to do
In this world
world
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do

Don't Know What To Do

A song about a Song that went into the world to start a life of it’s own, on a helluva Ride. And also about heartbreak, heartheal, the path of the Heart, the Only Always of Being, and the comicosmic circus of cycles and circles. Wholeness, oneness, wonderful weirdness. About losing yourself and finding yourself and staying true to the Path of the Heart, no matter what. Embrace your inner Clown, jump on your Kangaroo and Ride away!
