lyrics

Ain’t it funny how flying high,
Can train the focus of a caffeine eye,
Your perspective shifts to a realist glitch,
In the otherwise rushing river of your day to day blues,
Oh don’t let your sorry cast a shadow on you,

Why worry about rocking the boat,
When the river’s just a cut in the throat,
Of a land that’s just a crumpled coat,
That can’t quite cover the whole of the linoleum blue,
No don’t let your sorrow cast a shadow on you,

And it takes a plane ride home,
To settle out my soul,
To offer me a driver’s seat,
I never would’ve known,
Oh how can you know if you’ve never been shown,

What’s good about a mutual past,
When the peacetime comes as a lapse,
Between the hollowed out and crooked mask,
When your love is on the edge of collapse,
You’ll only find a way through,

If you leave the worry out of your head,
And free the thought of loving instead,
A mind at peace is better at least,
Than what ever it was to have cause to make my baby blue,
Oh don’t let your sorrow cast a shadow on you,

And it takes a plane ride home,
To settle out my soul,
To offer me a driver’s seat,
I never would’ve known,
Oh how can you know if you’ve never been shown,
No don’t let your sorrow cast a shadow on you.

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
