Written / Performed by Rosanne Baker Thornley (RBT)
From her album "Sorry I'm Late"

The tea you used to love
Well, I am down to the last bag
The cup that was your favorite has a crack
that pen you wrote me notes with
is almost outta ink
/n It’s hard to see the line
Where I used to wear your ring

It’s so hard to keep you here
It’s so hard to keep you here

I’m looking round the room
and nothing feels the same
So much of you is missing it’s all changed 
I can feel you standing here with me
I can feel you standing here with me 
… but barely 

The sweater that was yours 
I swore I’d never take it off 
but it’s so full of holes 
it’s not the perfect that it was 
Your favorite cologne, 
I put some on when I get lost
Now the bottles almost empty
And I'm down to the last drops 
      
It’s so hard to keep you here
It’s so hard to keep you here

I’m looking round the room,
and nothing feels the same
So much of you is missing it’s all changed
I can feel you standing here with me
I can feel you standing here with me 
… but barely 

I didn’t want to say goodbye
I didn’t want to say goodbye
No I didn’t want to say goodbye

Looking round the room
and nothing feels the same
So much of you is missing it’s all changed
I can feel you standing here with me
I can feel you standing here with me 
I can feel you standing here with me 
… but barely

Bruce Cockburn joins us on Episode 611 of Folk Roots Radio for a wonderful in-depth conversation about his new career spanning retrospective, “Greatest Hits 1970-2020”, a double CD set featuring 30 songs he has released as singles. After 34 albums, 13 Junos, thousands of shows across the world and numerous other awards, it’s been quite the career. The good news is that Bruce Cockburn is still going strong, still working on new songs, and still playing shows. In fact, this month he sets out on his 50th Anniversary tour. It’s actually Take 2 – because COVID put paid to the first version last year. There was a lot to talk about which is why we’ve given over the whole of this episode to the interview. So settle down and enjoy Bruce Cockburn… in Conversation on Folk Roots Radio.

If you like the artists you hear on this show and want to support them, don’t just stream their music – BUY their music and then you’ll really make a difference to their income during this difficult time when it’s much more challenging to find live shows.

Long, evolving and meditative track to be enjoyed in a relaxed setting.  I hope this song takes you away.  Here's to finding solace in the new year.

2020.11.10 Thunderstorm Meditation: Night Forest. Late Spring.

I create. I write. 
I write songs for me. And I write songs with and for other artists. My team produces me and many of the artists I work with. I’ve received quite a few international songwriting awards which is cool and that adds a nice bit of visibility along the way. I love what I do, and I’ve been doing this a long time. Every day I work with awesome, talented people who inspire and motivate me to want more. Music is not an easy business, but its certainly made for an interesting journey to this point. And so it continues :) For more, please visit my site at rbtsong.com. And thank you for dropping by to listen. RBT
