A Better World

I Still Think About You Most Days (For Olivia)

Lamorna's Lullaby is the first recording for my new album 'Songs of Land and Sea', which will be available sometime in 2025. 

Featuring Laura Terry singing main vocals with additional vocals by Jon Woode 

Lamorna's Lullaby  by Jon Woode
(written on the 8th June 2024).

Inspired by Lamorna Birch's (a member of the Newlyn Art Society) love of Lamorna Cove and his infatuation with Greta Valentine.

This is a simple song that finds the artist Lamorna Birch searching for inspiration in the eyes of his muse Greta Valentine and the beauty of his surroundings. Once he has completed his work he is totally at peace and the sea sings him to sleep.

                          
Lamorna’s Lullaby

Somewhere in your eyes
In the valley of the trees
Tranquility of blue endless blue
Of the open seas
Something in your smile
Reminds me of the sky
Inspiration comes to my open mind

The sea will sing Lamorna
The sea will sing Lamorna
She will sing Lamorna’s lullaby

Somewhere on the wind
Far beyond the rye
I sometimes hear you singing me to sleep
Where the angels fly
A voice upon a wave
A whisper on the tide
And the sea will sing Lamorna’s Lullaby

The sea will sing Lamorna
The sea will sing Lamorna
She will sing Lamorna’s Lullaby

Across the waters far and wide
On gentle winds on softly ebbing tides

The sea will sing Lamorna
The sea will sing Lamorna
She will sing Lamorna’s Lullaby

Lamorna's Lullaby

The poem is an acrostic that spells...

Fuck Ai There's Real Art In Life Love Real

Lyrics

Freedom from machines.
Universe says, "Dreams".
Catatonic courted heart.
Killer crowned for human art

Artificial, Stolen from start.
Information plagued & served a la carte.

To the real in the real world.
Hear the steel soul unfurled.
Evolutionary, intelligent.
Revolution only for sense.
Evading fakes on the fence.
See in art your deepest of tense.

Rotate to create.
Easy to find Spiritual mate.
All souled thought leaves hate
Larva stage to a higher state.

Art can pre~conceive heart rate
Rotate to create
Theme the dark in brevity weight.

Infinite abyss.
Neutron stars too far.

Listless our list.
Insist on knowing who and where you are
Forever, one moment points to where you are.
End this past & future....

LIve in infinite instance
Our
Victory
Everlong

Rotate to create
Easy leave the hate
A pre conceived heart rate
Lies In brevity weight

Art in Life

Sometimes personal-health and growth means leaving things and people behind you love. It's not hate, it's growth and self-love. It's better to be loved for who you are.

LOVING BEST

September Days

Make Believe

I put new strings on my Brother's Yamaha FG 180 (Bought in 1968) and wrote this little tune on it! The Guitar is a Dreadnought with a really big sound! Lisa McGlinn then added a stunning Flute Track!

Like The Arrow To The Bow

It Just Goes

I hear whispers in the trees 
Carried on the autumn breeze 
Fragments fall like broken glass 
I’m looking forward to the past

Looking forward to the past

A quiet collection of thresholds.
Stories of people standing right on the edge — of a town, a harvest, a relationship, a country, a life — each worried that if they take that next step, the sky will fall. All hearing the same counter-question rise in their chest: but, what if it won’t?
Crisp cello-folk, breath-close vocals, and the soft ache of almost-decisions weave through the album like fog on an empty road.
These are songs for the leavers who stay, the stayers who dream, and anyone who’s ever paused before stepping into the life they weren’t sure was theirs.
