We are happy that we can work on our next Album, scheduled for 2023. This song will be on the album. A song to take out your guitars and ukuleles and sit down by the fire to sing along (about all the love that went wrong, or so). Let us know what you think! As always so much love, thanks and appreciation to the support from all of you on soundcloud!

Give your heart to the sailor
He'll discard it at sea
If you encounter the devil
send him greetings from me

I once fell for his daughter 
and she was no match for me
Don't you see

Let's sit down by the fire
Raise your glass to the sea
And if you were a liar
you'd say you love me

Put your faith in the helmsman
Don't be waiting for me
I'll be fine at the harbour
Send her greetings from me

We could never be more than
Two ships passing at sea
Come with me

Let's sit down by the fire
Raise your glass to the sea
And if you were a liar
you'd say you would love me

Let's sit down by the fire
Raise your glass to the sea
And if you were a liar
you'd be exactly like me

Sit Down By The Fire

Lyrics:
This little town seems sadder
Since we lost Old Jack
Knew this day was coming
Holding the tears back
-----------------------------
Old Jack was kind and simple
No better friend to find
Knew he cared sincerely
How we loved him dearly
-----------------------------
He treated all the same
Knew everyone's name
Listened with great interest
Always glad you came
-----------------------------
We sing this song for Old Jack
Best man we ever knew
Who taught us pearls of wisdom
And wise things to pursue

LYRICS:
The king said to the pauper 
How I wish I was like you 
Then I would not have to worry about 
The things a king must do

The pauper smiled and said well
I suppose that must be so
But some would say that being a king
Beats begging in the snow

The king looked to the distance
Said I see your point of view
But you must know that being a king 
Can be a burden too

The pauper nodded gently 
Said, I’m sorry for your pain
But some would rather bear that burden
Than be homeless in the rain

The king said to the pauper
Tell me what are we to do
It seems to me that I could learn
A thing or two from you

The pauper thought a while and said 
It might seem I've nothing to lose
But we might hear a different story 
From a man who has no shoes

The two men bid farewell 
To their different lives returned
And some will ask what happens 
When the page gets turned 

When the stars all realign
What will tomorrow bring
Is the king become a pauper
Or the pauper now a king?

The Pauper and The King

The Pauper And The King

More than words can say.
