GHOSTLIGHT ORCHESTRA - North Korea

Here's a version of Leonard Cohen's 'Seems So Long Ago, Nancy' that I recorded for a cover feature CD for Mojo magazine a few years back. 

My new album, Home Part 2 is released 19th September 2016 on my own Shedio Records label. It's available to pre-order now via Pledge Music here:

Seems So Long Ago, Nancy

Green Grass

Cherry Blossoms in the Front Yards, Forever - follow

You know what?
I'd really like you to stay.

Why does it have to be so sad?
I love you. 
I don't want it to fade away,
I don't want it to become a memory.
Maybe I just don't want to face reality.

You're everything, to me.
When the end of the world comes, I'd like it to be this way.
I want to be with you on Doomsday..

I Want to Be With You on Doomsday

A Shelter In The Desert - Y dormir, por primera vez, con el alma al lado

Hush now
Don't explain
Just say you'll remain
I'm yours
You're mine
Don't explain

Quiet
Don't explain
What is there to gain
Skip that lipstick
Don't explain

You know that I love you
And what love endures
All my thoughts are of you
For I'm so completely yours
Cry to hear folks chatter
And I know you cheat
Right or wrong dont matter
When I'm with you sweet

Hush now
Don't explain
You're my joy and pain
I'm yours you're mine don't explain

Don't Explain - Angela Mccluskey

Back To Her Man

The look of hunger in a woman with heat
Is enough to lift an old man from his knees
Like the piece of a puzzle
he's been lookin' for
He was leanin' to dyin'
now he's comin' back for more.

The look of a woman
when she gets you alone
You can't see what's comin'
but there's blood in your bones.
There's powder in your pocket
and ships in your sea
Well it doesn't often happen
but it happened to me.

Then she goes back to her man
Back to her man
Back to, back to her man.

There's a look of war in the way that you go
But the lead in your arrow is loose,
don't you know?
And all that you've got is lost in the game
Of picking your own pockets
for someone to blame.

There may be nothin' above the art of love
Depending on who you're dreaming of
And you can't escape
when it feels like rape
But who's raping who?

Then she goes back to her man
Back to her man
Back to, back to her man. (2x)

She don't love him
She don't love him no more
Love him, love him (2x)

She don't love her man
She don't love (2x)

She goes back to her man
Back her man
Back to, back to her man.

This Will Destroy You -  The World Is Our _____

My darling, I loved you
I long to become you
And know what it is that you gave
We dance the sorrow
Forgive me tomorrow
And I pray night after night and day after day
Would you watch my body weaken
And my mind drift away?
Dear lover forsaken, our love is taken away
You were my speaker, my innocence-keeper
I don't night after night, day after day
Would you watch my body weaken,
My mind drift away?
Dear lover forgiven, my love is driven by rage
Oh I should just leave you, instead I've deceived you
But I don't
Night after night, day after day
Would you watch my body weaken and mind drift away?
I count no one, hold nobody's ear
I sold you my hand once and you hit me in fear
I don't stand for the devil
I don't whisper in ears
I stand on the mountains and call people to hear
Sudden bursts of light, it's a fate foretold
It is knowing, it is knowing
He longs for the answers, as all of us must
He longs for the woman who will conquer his lust
He screams in the night, I scream in the day
He weeps in the evening and lies naked and prays
Night after night, day after day
Night after night, day after day
Would you watch my body weaken and my mind drift away?
It's a tempting communion
It's a fate foretold
It is knowing, it is knowing
What it is that you're told
