She stood there in "the shiver ring"
That was the name we gave the ring
Our footsteps made in the snow, a circle of truth

Let go all the lies and the make-believe
There's no snow jobs in the shiver, shiver ring
So she stood there and spoke her truth
When she said "I love you"

And in the cold, cold wintertide
The hard truths can't be denied
And I, I say I love her true
I really do

When we stepped into the shiver ring
Our breath in the air was glistening
A vapor born of something new

So goodbye winter and hello spring
Now we're rising from the shiver ring
My love, oh I remember
And everything still rings true

Lyrics
How can I move on from the past when I can’t remember half the things you want me to forget
And how can I prove I love you more than I’ve ever loved even if I’m living in regret
Tell me how am I supposed to feel now all my choices moved along to another’s chance to live that life instead
Please show me now what to think so I can choose the drink I drink and sleep in the middle of my empty bed

Sick and tired of your ups and downs my here and now’s fed sheep to cows least that’s the words I hear in my insane
Haunted by a choice I didn’t make stranded in true love feeling fake heartbreak lights blind a runaway train
I keep saving chances ‘til the next life holding out ‘til perfect feels right but every day just ends the same old same
Maybe if I get drunk I won’t feel as though I funked up without excuse ready for a blame 
Without the shame screaming out your name

Stuck in head space on my own
It’s a place I can’t get out of
Trapped in my mind and yet still
Too scared to feel the truth
Caught in between fate and fall
It’s a path I can’t choose from
Full of the facts that we bled
But I ain’t got no proof
You know I ain’t got no proof
No I ain’t got no proof
No I ain’t got no proof

You say I’ve had too much love hate relationship cashed too many get free certificates gotta find some inside love somehow
Ticked one more obligation over take me now I’m done getting older hope curtain’s calling waiting for my bow
Cos I don’t have the time I once had game’s half over mug is empty a square can’t fit into a hole that’s round
So I’m gonna make the best of here and now love you like you were the only one any love we have we’re lucky to have found
But with love like yours we’re always tied to the ground


Stuck in head space on my own
It’s a place I can’t get out of
Trapped in my mind and yet still
Too scared to feel the truth
Caught in between fate and fall
It’s a path I can’t choose from
Full of the facts that we bled
But I ain’t got no proof
You know I ain’t got no proof
No I ain’t got no proof
No I ain’t got no proof

Just cause I ain't got none don't mean there ain't none
Just cause I ain't got none you can't say I'm right or wrong
Because I ain't got none don't mean there ain't none
Because I ain't got none can't say I'm right or wrong
When loose lips get loose because I ain't got none
Can you still find your truth because I ain't got none
Should I just have faith because I ain't got none
Is it too little too late
always too little too late
too late 
But I ain't got no proof 
No I ain't got no proof

Proof

We are in the process of recording When You Walked In, so decided to release a live version first. It was recorded at the Con Club in Lewes using a TASCAM DR-05X on 19th April 25.

When You Walked In (Live) 250419

This is a live version of Days Of Silence recorded at the Con Club in Lewes using a TASCAM DR-05X on 19th April 25. The vocals are quite low in the mix, but not bad considering it's recorded on a small handheld device.

LYRICS(SPANISH) 
Que de malo en mi, no siento nada, 
no siento nada desde que te fuiste, no siento nada

Dos querpos en uno, tu piel tus ohos tus lavios, 
mi alma sangra, mia alma sangra cada vez que te requerda
extraño, la intimidad, extraño la intimidad

Mi alma sangra mi alma sangra cada vez que te requerda
extraño, extraño lo que tuvimos huntos 
Dos querpos en uno, tu piel tus ohos tus lavios 
Lo que tuvimos huntos,
No siento nada…

ENGLISH TRANSLATION

What's wrong with me, I don't feel anything, 
I haven't felt since you left, I haven't felt anything

Two bodies in one, your skin, your eyes, your lips, 
my soul bleeds, my soul bleeds every time I remember you
I miss the intimacy, I miss the intimacy

My soul bleeds, my soul bleeds every time I remember you
I miss, I miss being together with you
Two bodies in one, your skin, your eyes, your lips 
What we had together,
I don't feel anything...

Nada

Lyrics:

The girl in the yellow house right across my street
Was always alone, no shoes on her feet
She was seen as a weirdo
They laughed behind her back
No one knew what she could do

Chorus:
She could sing like an angel
Play guitar like a queen
She made songs about life
This little weirdo in the yellow house

Her family lived far away, was never seen there
They blamed it on the distance
But didn't really care
They had never heard her sing, or playing the guitar
No one knew what she could do

Chorus...

Chorus...

One day I saw her walking down the street
This little weirdo, no shoes on her feet
She played the guitar
Sang songs about life
And we all knew what she could do

She could sing like an angel
Play guitar like a queen
She made songs about life
This little weirdo in the yellow house

Girl In The Yellow House

The Battle of Culloden was a battle fought on April 16, 1746, near Inverness, Scotland. It was the final battle of the Jacobite Rising of 1745, and the last pitched battle on British soil.

The Jacobite army, led by Prince Charles Edward Stuart, fought against the British government army, led by the Duke of Cumberland. 

The Jacobites were defeated, with around 1,600 men killed, mostly Jacobites. 

The British lost only 50 men.

The battle ended the Jacobite Rising and settled a dispute over the monarchy that had lasted almost 60 years.

Lyrics:

They marched towards the battlefield
Many of them were starving
The clans all together
And they refused to yield

They charged across the boggy ground
That slowed them down
Onwards towards the canon fire
From the redcoat lines

Chorus

Oh the legend of Culloden
Where many brave men died
It will never be forgotten
Still hear the battle cries

Some say their ghosts walk there
On that forbidden moor
Haunted by those that had fallen
Echoes of brave souls

The gallant highlanders fought that day
Though outnumbered 2 to 1
Onward they kept on going
But were massacred one by one

Bridge

Chorus

Soon the battle it was over
The British army had won
Dead and dying around them lay
The Jacobites' dream died that day

Legend of Culloden (Cooper/Granthem Collaboration)

This track is a re-recording of a 35 year old song of mine. Had a lot of white noise back then, so I tried to protect all your precious ears from damage by giving it another try with today's technical equipment. Only my skills didn't improve in the meantime, so I apologize to my younger version of me if I f..... up... ;-)

Guitar still my 35 year old Valley Arts in Gun-Metal Blue.
