I was just re-reading this one today, Miriam. It makes me smile – I remember writing it in an over-priced soul-less cafe in Edinburgh, just after I’d finished re-writing The Falcon’s Child in 2008. I was so tired, I just wanted to curl up on the pavement – I’d used up all my reserves, I thought. But turning it into fuel, using it in another way, got me smiling, laughing to myself in the midst of the exhaustion. I never write songs, but this one made me think it might be a nice idea to try.

Has a rolling, celtic beat to me- not blues

Hey Tom I really, really like the above lyrics – yes, it does read as a blues number…!

Also, any chance you can add some sections from the ‘Falcon’s Child’ here (the link to it shows ‘nothing here’)?
I do remember it as a brilliant piece of writing…
