about

I wrote the lyrics to Silver City Bound 8 or 9 years ago, while working in a temp job as a receptionist. It must have been a quiet morning.

I put the words to music, but didn't get the most out of them. So I rewrote the song a few years later. I think Elbow were an influence...

lyrics

You can take it as read
You can count down the days
You can bury your head in the words you didn't say
But in your little scarred heart
Can you turn things around?
Yes, I know what you've lost
But do you know what you've found?
Will you carry that cross (far, far away)
Will you carry that cross (far, far away)
Will you carry that cross - the love that you've lost
'Til you're silver city bound?
I've been gathering dust
Somewhere out in a dream
I've been learning to trust
If I know what that means
But now I'm back at the start
My ship's run aground
You could glow in the dark, and still not see what you've found
Will you carry that cross (far, far away)
Will you carry that cross (far, far away)
Will you carry that cross - the love that you've lost
'Til you're silver city bound?
