Onward Still

Do catch your breath now please
or you will run out of air
Do keep those eyes that see
the things that one day could be there
Oh you are going
Down the stream but up the hill
To wherever I don’t know
Oh you are going
Where all dreams go, where all dreams go
Do keep your picture books
in your glass door cabinet
But do not hold on to
memories that still the air
Oh you are going
Down the stream but up the hill
To wherever I don’t know
Oh you are going
Where all dreams go, where all dreams go
Where all dreams go, onward still
The future had no shape
before you made it take its form
So mould it in your hands
work it till your bones are worn
Oh you are going
Down the stream but up the hill
To wherever I don’t know
Oh you are going
Where all dreams go, where all dreams go
Where all dreams go, onward still
Do catch your breath now please
or you will run out of air

On My Mind
04:41
|

|
I saw you standing there
In a memory
With your tired eyes
Looking straight at me
When will I realize
What's gone is gone
What's all this longing for
When it don't belong, it don't belong
And I'm blinded like a fool who's turned to loving
Though I can see you never turned to me
But there's no point in telling you about it
You've know all along oh baby can't you see
'Cause you could lay me down here if you want to
And you could keep my by your side
And you could send a broken smile as you're leaving
And leave an imprint on my mind
My mind, my mind, my mind
And my friends they tell
You broke up with your girl
And took to chasing dreams
Traveling the world
I don't really know how I should hold you
When it feels like you're a ghost just passing through
And I don't see how loving is a verb dear
When loving never was a thing that I could do
'Cause you could lay me down here if you want to
And you could keep my by your side
And you could send a broken smile as you're leaving
And leave an imprint on my mind
I see I've got nothing left to bring you
With empty hands I stand in front of you
I wish I could find the strength within me
To show no empty hands can hold you like mine do
'Cause you could lay me down here if you want to
And you could keep my by your side
And you could send a broken smile as you're leaving
And leave an imprint on my mind
My mind, my mind, my mind

Nobody Knows
03:23
|
|||
|
I saw the sun its light shone on me
Down by the riverside
Held in my hands nothing but water drops
But somehow satisfied
I used to keep a box of broken dreams
To show to those who asked
Showing the cracks when most of me was whole
Plain living in the past
But there’s strength in every weakened part of me
Nobody knows, how we live to learn then learn to live
Nobody knows, how we keep, we take, hold on
Then learn to give
I guess nobody knows
I tried to grow a green and blooming field
For neighbours there to see
I only cared for vain and surface things
Not for the earth beneath
But there’s truth to every lie that spoke in me
Nobody knows, how we live to learn then learn to live
Nobody knows, how we keep, we take, hold on,
Then learn to give
I guess nobody knows
Ahh..
Nobody knows, how we live to learn then learn to live
Nobody knows, how we keep, we take, hold on
Then learn to give
Nobody knows, the measure of a man when he has fallen
Or when he's lifted off the ground
I guess nobody knows

Hannah

Hannah oh sweet Hannah don’t you know
Your smile gives the world its brightest colour
Hannah oh sweet Hannah won’t you show
And shine your little light so we can see
That there’s still open palms that give
handing us small and precious gifts
Helping us thread the world so lightly
with the little things we need
Oh Hannah
Hannah oh sweet Hannah don’t you know
Your smile gives the world its brightest colour
Hannah oh sweet Hannah won’t you show
And shine your little light so we can see
That little ones will outgrow their skin
But hold on to their sweet souls within
Playing your games until the evening
No matter if you lose or win
Hannah please sing it loud and clear
So even the broken ones can hear
Let it translate in every language
Giving love so fearlessly
Oh what have we done to have you here?
Oh Hannah, nanana..

If I Did Love You
04:40
|

If I did love you, love you my dear
If I did want you right here
Would you come to perform on that stage
Would you try to move me in some way
Won’t you please?
Oeh..
If I did love you, love you my dear
Would you run from, break free right here
I feel heavy when you are not around
Your hands could lift me right up of the ground
Sing to me like I’m singing to you now
Won’t you please?
Oeh..
You’ve tried, but it ain’t good enough
Reciprocate me your strength and all your love
Won’t you try to move me in some way?
Won’t you try to love me in some way?
If I did love you, if I did love you, if I did love you
Maybe I do
If I did love you, if I did love you, if I did love you
Ahh..
I love you

Comfort
I was meant to give your mind some
Comfort
All through the night
Comfort
I tried to keep good faith in you that
Comfort
Would help you through the night
But I ain’t got that much to give no more
I’ve grown empty in the promises I’ve been keeping to myself
I’ve tried twice as hard for you but still
I know nothing ever will give you comfort
Comfort
My body’s meant to give your hands some
Comfort
All through the night
Comfort
Longing often makes us feel some
Comfort
Won’t you warm your skin on me
But I ain’t got that much to lose no more
The innocence is gone you can’t just keep me to yourself
You’ve loved twice as much I know but still
I know nothing ever will give you comfort
Oeh…
Comfort
This song, this chord, this music gives me
Comfort
All through the night
I only have this song for you to sing
That takes me back to when
I let this music take me in
So I can sing it to you if you’d like
It’s the only way that I can give you comfort
Comfort
I hope this melody will give you
Comfort
All through the night
All through the night
Oh all through the night

Bloody Noses EP
by Richard Thompson
supported by 7 fans who also own “Onward Still (Full EP)”
John Drumbo French from Captain Beefheart and The Magic Band worked with Thompson on two albums along with Fred Frith and Henry Kaiser. Those two French, Frith, Kaiser and Thompson albums led me to this. Also, Richard Thompson taught Hugh Cornwell (of The Stranglers) how to play the bass guitar in a band when they were both at the same school (Emil and The Detectives?). With a career spanning 50 years and playing with two of my heroes (French and Cornwell) Thompson has produced a fascinating EP.
