A song about staying when you should leave...
Written by Florance/Fox Allen from the album 'Somewhere Down the Line'

Part of the Lyrics:
I have tasted the bittersweet flavour 
of a love that’s turned sour, 
felt the weight of a heart so heavy 
carried through those long dark hours...
I have kept a box full of memories 
of another life and time, 
rewritten the rule book when the words 
of love don’t rhyme...

The Guilty One

Mysterious forces exerted by the moon and the sun on a stretch of water

THE TIDE by Elizabeth O.S. Chute

The King was on his horse
His castle far away
He attacked his foe with force
And left them where they lay
They died without a hope
Of seeing their wives again
Oh yes, the king was proud
As he rode on through the rain
He knew that blood was never spilt in vain

And all of his people feared for what they had
For the King would take it from them
And they knew it made him glad
To see the hate in their eyes
As he rode past them day and night
He loved to see the sight
Of death in their lies
And hands poised on knives

Then one night, 
The King was in his bed
And a peasant came
Held a knife to his head
And waited till he cried
“Don’t let the things I’ve done
Hold too much sway
I’ll be a better man
I’ll let you have your way”
But the peasant slit his throat
Chuckling at his gargled pain
For like the King, he knew
Blood was never spilt in vain
And cursing King and name
He threw the body into the rain

Next to You

Tell me when and where and I'll be right there
If you're lonely or if you're scared
I will run through this cold night air
To share what we always have shared
Nothing in this world can compare
You burned through my despair

Ooo

It's all I ever wanna do
It's all I ever wanna do 
Be right next to you absorbing only you
It's all I ever wanna do 
It's all I ever wanna do 
Be right next to you rescuing only you

And I don't really care what's out there
Mistakes are never truly repaired
I'm here to stay I just could not bare
Not staring how we always have stared
Nothing in this world can compare
You burned through my despair 

Ooo

It's all I ever wanna do
It's all I ever wanna do 
Be right next to you absorbing only you
It's all I ever wanna do 
It's all I ever wanna do 
Be right next to you rescuing only you

From dawn to dusk 
And all through the night
From dawn to dusk 
And all through the night 

I'll be there 
I'll be there 

It's all I ever wanna do
It's all I ever wanna do 
Be right next to you 
Be right next to you

Pauline and guitarist Edwin Gallacher were honoured to be nominated for the 'Isambard Folk Award' (Bristol Folk Festival 2014)

Pauline has previously performed  at 'Celtic Connection's and appeared on STV's Riverside Show as well as providing support for the triple platinum selling artist 'Rumer' on her only Scottish show.
