lyrics

I may be poor, but I ain't as suffering as you dear,
You try on a smile, but I can see right through you dear,
He doesn't like your song, so you ask him what is wrong,
The page he said took an age to be read,
The words had been bled too long,

So if you find yourself alone tonight,
The stars they might align just right,
And you'll see,
For the first time, you'll see me.

If you're stuck on the edge of a rock in the south-side seas alone,
I'll be the one to pry you off and baby we'll make a new home,
Like a blade of grass grown long you get cut down by the throngs,
But you grow back again and taller than ever,
You're far too clever and strong,

So if you find yourself alone tonight,
The stars they might align just right,
And you'll see,
For the first time, you'll see me.
And you'll see,
For the first time, you'll see me.

And oh how the clouds danced round,
And found ways to obscure your view,
And oh how the sun went down,
Below the ground beneath your shoes,
And seeing me was impossible,
Until the the sun came a-breaking through,

So if you find yourself alone tonight,
The stars they might align just right,
And you'll see,
For the first time, you'll see me.
And you'll see,
For the first time, you'll see me.

about

Miles Calder Wellington, New Zealand

Singer/songwriter Miles Calder delivers cutting lyrics with an expressive voice. A few years since the last outings with former backing band The Rumours, Miles has emerged with a revived sound, fresh songs and a new band. His new self-reflective songs move from understated folk-rock to swirling psychedelia, evoking early 70s Lennon as much as contemporaries like Kevin Morby or Father John Misty. ... more
