LYRICS: 
Oh love is blind 
Oh love is blind 
Oh love is blind, blind, blind. 

Those shady lanes,

'Panda in the Chandelier' is available on: 
iTunes - itunes.apple.com/gb/album/id977570924
Bandcamp -tomrosenthal.bandcamp.com/album/bolu

LYRICS: 
Theres a panda in the chandelier 
Oh what have we got here? what have we got here?

Well i'll tell you how it got up there 
This is a story of a young girls flair   
for throwing pandas 

It was her fathers friends wedding day 
and she was dragged along, as is the way, 
for the poor young ones. 

As the big people did their thing 
the panda bear she did swing 
oh the panda bear 
flung through the air 

Well a serious man with a frown 
came with a ladder and took it down, 
aren't ladders handy 

He had never seen this happen before 
Pandas normally stick to the floor 
Call it good timing 

And you got your panda back 
you got your panda back 
you got your panda back 
and your were happy about that 

Panda in the Chandelier

'Borrowing' is available on: 
iTunes - itunes.apple.com/gb/album/id977570924
Bandcamp -tomrosenthal.bandcamp.com/album/bolu

LYRICS: 
Hey you on the lonely roads
Hey you in the morning bright
I've only borrowed you

Hey you who cannot talk 
Hey you so close to sleep 
You only borrowed me

Hey you with the crying eyes 
Hey there on the softest sea
You've only borrowed me

Hey you in the bath of sky 
Hey you in the kitchen light 
I've only borrowed you

Hey you in the great beyond
Hey you who will not be gone
I've only borrowed you

Hey you by the train window
Hey you in the darkest room 
I've only borrowed you

Bandcamp -tomrosenthal.bandcamp.com/album/bolu

LYRICS: 
If you're having troubles babe hit them with beams 
You've got 99 problems and all of them dreams. 
Life will give you something like an ebb or a flow 
Stare them right in the eyes babe and give it a go. 

Oh don't you shy away your heart beats the day 
Oh time is not alone with you. 

Oh don't you shy away your heart beats the day
Oh time is not alone with you. 
Oh don't you shy away your heart beats the day 
Oh time is not alone with you. 
Oh don't you shy away your heart beats the day
Oh time is not alone with you. 

All of Them Dreams

'This Road is Long' is available on iTunes : https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/the-pleasant-trees-vol.-2-ep/id1066327661

LYRICS: 
I won't sigh if my dreams are only dreams
and it may not be the drawing that I drew. 
I wish i had a better plan but it so seems 
that I don't what the world wants me to do. 

This road is long is long is long without you 
This road is long is long is long without you

I hope one day these clouds will clear 
and the brightest of lights shines right through. 
I can't tell if you're far, close, or near and 
I don't know what my mind wants me to do. 

This road is long is long is long without you 
This road is long is long is long without you 

I won't cry if my dreams are only dreams 
and the seas are never quite as blue. 
This road is long is long is long without you 
This road is long is long is long without you 

This Road is Long

VIDEO  : https://youtu.be/6YGP_9WZnxA


LYRICS : 
Today was just a day 
and you dealt with it okay 
but tomorrow is a boy who needs to run.

You've seen it all before 
and you've knocked on all the doors 
but tomorrow is a funny looking one.

Oh everything is about change 
but i say bring it closer to me

Oh it's coming soon but 
like the spinning of the moon 
in truth it is already happening.

Think back to the start 
when we sang with bolder hearts 
and the darkness wasn't even bothering.

Oh everything is about change 
but i say bring it closer to me

Bring the storms and the blows
and everything it knows
and i say bring it closer to me

Soon Soon 
Soon Soon

Hope it was bird 
that flew til it was heard. 
and landed in a corner of a mind.

Oh i'll get what i'll get, 
and we ain't seen nothing yet, 
and no one has ever glanced the other side.

Oh everything is about change 
but i say bring it closer to me.

Bring the time and the space, 
and the lost forgotten place. 
and i say bring it closer to me

Today was just a day 
and you dealt with it okay 
but tomorrow is a boy who needs to run.

Oh everything is about change 
but i say bring it closer to me.

'Miffed' is available on iTunes : itunes.apple.com/gb/album/the-pleasant-trees-vol.-3-ep/id1106541507

VIDEO : https://youtu.be/xlE3-liDdto

LYRICS : 

Oh it wasn't bad, wasn't it good? 
Oh it was a moment of life 
We were just two little humans 
Walking to end of the night 

Oh it's been a ride 
I think i survived 
But I don't know
I'm miffed without your love
Oh it's been a ride 
I think i survived 
But I don't know 
I'm miffed without your love  

Oh it wasn't hugs it was combat 
Oh it wasn't rocks it was dust 
You should said i should find what i don't know 
You said i should lie in the rust 

Oh it's been a ride 
I think i survived 
But I don't know 
I'm miffed without your love
Oh it's been a ride 
I think i survived 
But I don't know 
I'm miffed without your love  

I was caught in the headlights
What am i gonna see? 
I was bound to be lonely 
What am i gonna be? 
If i don't have a meaning 
What am i gonna mean? 
If I can't see your face love 
What am i gonna see? 

Oh it's been a ride 
I think i survived 
But I don't know 
I'm miffed without your love
Oh it's been a ride 
I think i survived 
But I don't know 
I'm miffed without your love

'Lead Me To You' is available on iTunes : itunes.apple.com/gb/album/the-pleasant-trees-vol.-3-ep/id1106541507

LYRICS: 

Give me a minute or hour
I'll tell you you the time 
Say you come here tomorrow 
The joys will be mine   

Heart beat, softly  
The young don't cry.  
Minds grow, the eye knows that 
We are fine. 

And i don't have a system 
And i don't have clue 
But all of these roads, darling
They all lead me to you. 

Careful with your words, love. 
I do not know mine 
Come to me in the morning 
The sunshine won't lie 

Heart beat slowly. 
We are fine. 

Oh i don't have a system 
And i don't have clue 
But all of these roads, darling. 
They all send me to you. 

Listen close to me, darling. 
The moment is soon. 
Come to me in the nighttime 
I'll be on the moon. 

Oh heart beat, slowly. 
We are fine. 

Well i don't have a system 
And i don't have clue 
But all of this love, darling. 
It all leads me to you. 

Well i don't have a system 
And i don't have clue 
Well all of these roads, darling. 
They all lead me to you. 

Lead Me To You

'Us' is available on iTunes : itunes.apple.com/gb/album/the-pleasant-trees-vol.-3-ep/id1106541507

VIDEO : https://youtu.be/A1i1GN7qxYo

LYRICS : 

You said it was about the weather 
You said it was mostly the fuss 
You said it was about the nevers 
But i think it was about us. 

You said it was a combination 
Of factors found and lost 
You saw it in the constellations 
But i think it was about us 

And its gone before its gone 
It's lost before it's lost 
And you didn't see it coming cos no one ever does.
And its gone before its gone 
It's lost before it's lost and 
I don't know who killed the buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz 

You said it was about the old times 
You said it was about the rush 
Yo said it was the crazy headlines 
But i think it was about us 

And its gone before its gone 
It's lost before it's lost 
And you didn't see it coming cos no one ever does.
And its gone before its gone 
It's lost before it's lost and 
I don't know who killed the buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz 

Blah blah blah words words words 
Sentiments we've heard heard heard 
Blah blah blah war war war 
Endings we have seen before 

Blah blah blah words words words 
Sentiments we've heard heard heard 
Blah blah blah war war war 
Endings we have seen before 

And its gone before its gone 
It's lost before it's lost 
And you didn't see it coming cos no one ever does.
And its gone before its gone 
It's lost before it's lost and 
I don't know who killed the buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz 

You blamed it on the late arrivals 
You said it was about the end of the trust 
You said it was the love rivals 
But i think it was about us 

And its gone before its gone 
It's lost before it's lost 
And you didn't see it coming cos no one ever does. 
And its gone before its gone 
It's lost before it's lost and 
I don't know who killed the buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz 

You said it was a case of symbols 
Where the minus beats the plus 
You said we were just lonely people 
But i think it was about us

'One of Those Things' is available on : 
iTunes - itunes.apple.com/gb/album/b-sides/id995568875
Bandcamp - tomrosenthal.bandcamp.com/album/b-sides

LYRICS: 
Pictures of a face
Descriptions of the day
I don’t know what to say about that

Pictures
Pictures of a face
Descriptions the day
He walked away
It was raining
And this pain in your heart never went
You never said
It would feel this way and I want you to stay
That’s not what I meant to say
But I mean it
I mean it
Yeah right
There’s your honesty
Honestly, I’m feeling fine
Intelligent design
Line of eye-shadow tears and more wine
I don’t mind if I do
Do you like my new shoes
Mums, dads and home truths

Like: what are we going to do about you
You used to be such a happy child
You dialled the number
Didn’t speak
How do new lovers meet
Incredible feats
Of bravery
Wavering baby steps favouring
Wild mood swings
We were never not quite on the brink
Not trying to not think
Of missed connections
Missing links
Rose tints
It’s just one of those things

 
Imagining you
It’s just one of those things we do

Things things
So many things
So much to say
Lonely strings
Catch the bouquet
Hey hey
Here’s your soulmate
Spinning plates
One topples
It’s too late
It breaks
Industrial estates
And a canvas of cannibals of our entwined fates
So let’s find a place
To be complete
Find names we repeat
Find signs in the names of her street
And when you sleep
It’s still there
Always there
In a necklace of amber
Take care
Of your paint and your brushes
You know the way she is
The way she pushes
A greater weight than a lifetime of crushes
Playing back the day’s rushes
Here’s the scene where you see him
And you don’t know what to say
And I don’t know what you say about that

Pictures of a face
I don’t know what to say about that
Descriptions of the day
He walked away

 

I suppose
Some boys
Spend their whole life joking
Reading lines like karaoke
And opening wounds
Tombs
Visiting unspoken rooms
In the Crowlands
No romance
No shall we dance
Circumstance
Limping men with beers cans
Fortunes old hands
Reading lines of love, life, good times and pretty bad plans
Plots and parades
Every day
Every night
The end was always in sight
And when it ends
It never ends
It descends
Into the centre of the earth
Wish this curse
Could be lifted
Sometimes the world makes me feel like I never existed
And I existed
When she was laughing

 

Pictures of a face
I don’t know what to say about that
Fortunes old hands
Overrunning the land with you
When you were laughing
When she was laughing

LYRICS: 
There's no escape but i'm looking out 
and i'll sit because i'm tired 
i'll never see you again but i've got a picture of us 
I put my finger on my head so i can just see you 
Let me be ,something dies every day and i've got plenty of hours 
I put my finger on my head so i can just see you 
Every silver lining has a cloud
