Edward Jay Another brilliant album 👌👌. How can you pick a favourite track. New Moon and World of Ours contend for top spot.

No one can get me here, a Parabola special.

First Snow 01:35

Buried below winter snow, there is a river Carry you home In time…calling your name, you don’t hear a thing Calling your name, you don’t feel a thing Dancing the dark light mystery You are a wilderness frozen from me In time…calling your name, you don’t hear a thing Calling your name, you don’t feel a thing This will be the last time, I can’t breathe Oh you push and you pull, but you’re so beautiful I can’t stand it (this will be the last time) Oh you push and you pull, but you’re so beautiful This is madness Calling your name, you don’t hear a thing Calling you name, you don’t feel a thing This will be the last time, I can’t breathe Calling your name, you don’t hear a thing Calling your name, you don’t feel a thing Calling your name

Hannah 03:24
Tell me, have you seen my Hannah today? I have been searching since break of the day She walks with spirits at night and I fear Someone has stolen my Hannah, my dear Tell me have you seen my Hannah, my dear? I have been searching for more than a year Clear is her voice like a bell on the wind Stood at the shore and she beckons me in Tell me have you seen that man from moors? Day after day does he wander the shores Some say that he lost his mind long ago Following spirts where no man may go Tell me have you heard that song on the wind? Soft like a memory under your skin Deep in the night, with a hand to my ear I hear that voice calling, "Hannah, my dear"

New Moon 03:35
Save your troubles for the new moon Circle ‘round it will be back soon And all the games we play will see the light of day Save your troubles for the new moon Draw the spiders to the altar Drown them all in holy water When all the words we say will have a price to pay Who will be the one to falter? Calling down upon the old ways Circle ‘round just like the old days Rising from the earth, rising to rebirth In the shadow of the new moon Calling down upon the old ways Circle ‘round just like the old days Rising from the earth, rising to rebirth In the shadow of the new moon Save your troubles for the new moon Circle ‘round, it will be back soon And all the games we play will see the light of day Save your troubles for the new moon

Sway in the breeze like the flowers on the trees Kick my boots off, feet are in the ground Feel the earth sound moving all around and No one can get me here Cool comes the night Lemon lilac lighting up the sky Throw my head back, look up to the stars Feel the earth sound moving all around and No one can get me here No one can get me here

I haven’t surfaced for a long time Been underwater, out of reach I saw the sands of time before me But I could not walk that beach I always thought I was the current But now I know I am a wake In this vigil I’ve created Has drifted from its fate I want to be the best thing that has happened to you Is there more time to make it true? I always drift without an anchor And now I’ve travelled out to sea In my heart I am uncertain If you will come for me I want to be the best thing that has happened to you Is there more time to make it true? I want to be the best thing that has happened to you Is there more time to make it true? Is there more time to make it true?

Come to Me 03:53
Come to me with sweetness The ground alive beneath us Horizon, your eyes on my body All your strength, all your power Turn me into your Delilah Come to me and I will take away your pain tonight In the rapture of the moonlight Come to me and I will wash your wounds and heal your heart If you’ll just lay down your guard It’s a secret we share And no one knows Oh the lengths the thorns will go to be the rose! All your strength, all your power Turn me into your Delilah Come to me and I will take away your pain tonight In the rapture of the moonlight Come to me and I will wash your wounds and heal your heart If you’ll just lay down your guard And I know the morning comes and breaks the spell And you will go But I will be here waiting for you Come to me and I will take away your pain tonight In the rapture of the moonlight Come to me and I will wash your wounds and heal your heart If you’ll just lay down your guard

The Edge 03:06
Thought I found the edge of it, holding down the truth I don’t want to believe again It’s creeping in again Faded like the face I used to see across the table Burned away years ago Let it go Pull me from the edge Pull me from the ledge I’m holding on for my life Hold on for the ride Hoping this is home, but I don’t know my way around Like I’m walking on memories, or are they just fantasies? Moving like a melody but I can’t hold it down I don’t want to believe again, but it’s creeping in again Pull me from the edge Pull me from the ledge I’m holding on for my life Hold on for the ride

Gold candelabra, pictures in the magazine I was drawing myself at your piano Your black and white photograph You spin me ‘round dancing pretending that your footsteps were mine We sat at the mirror; we dress up enchanted And all of the colours come at once I’m only remembering now, and something’s happening now Something stirs while the watchman sleeps Flooding things that were buried deep And they tell me it’s all for the best And they tell me it’s time to rest I watch the winter I gather its memories, but I cannot count the steps between us I picture you dancing some place I’ve never been I see the details in my mind I’m only remembering now, and something’s happening now Something stirs while the watchman sleeps Flooding things that were buried deep And they tell me it’s all for the best And they tell me it’s time to rest Something stirs while the watchman sleeps Flooding things that were buried deep And they tell me it’s all for the best And they tell me it’s time to rest

Travelling by wishes, wings are inside The moon has always been her guide She sings a song into the night sky, knowing The pregnant universe is growing Oooh Can you feel the fire in our veins (keep running, just keep running) Some of us were born inside the flame (keep running, just keep running) We were taught to run from what we are (keep running, just keep running) Now it’s time to run this world of ours (keep running, just keep running) She has awakened in her DNA The signs are in the sky above The womb of heaven is a sacred place and We must protect her with our love Oooh Can you feel the fire in our veins (keep running, just keep running) Some of us were born inside the flame (keep running, just keep running) We were taught to run from what we are (keep running, just keep running) Now it’s time to run this world of ours (keep running, just keep running) Can you hear the voices calling from the past into your bones? And you’re moving to the rhythm of a song you’ve always known You’ve always known Can you feel the fire in our veins (keep running, just keep running) Some of us were born inside the flame (keep running, just keep running) We were taught to run from what we are (keep running, just keep running) Now it’s time to run this world of ours (keep running, just keep running) World of ours World of ours This world of ours World of ours

Flowers 03:16
I remember all the girls with flowers falling in the dirt And when they said their prayers and washed the stains And felt that they were close to God And put their hands together praying For each other and the strength to be so pure And be so clean And I remember when they took her from her shame And shipped her off to give it away to God Then they said her name was gone and must not mention Hush your lips and pray, we’ll all kneel down and pray, pray I remember all the girls with flowers falling in the dirt

There’s a curse on the land, and there’s blood on my hands Curl me up before I sleep, I’ve been waiting for relief Never before anyone gave me an eye for an I can see you Bippity and Boppity Boo no one’s coming to save you, darling It’s a very scary, very scary fairy tale if you don’t like the rain Can you hold me, I am cold? I have started to grow old Please don’t let me fall asleep, I am sorry I am weak Never before anyone gave me an eye for an I can see you Bippity and Boppity Boo no one’s coming to save you, darling Never before all of the chariots carried us to our slaughter In the dark here in the ark and all I hear is the sound of water It’s a very scary, very scary fairy tale if you don’t like the rain Stars will light the way, illuminate your journey into space And I’ll be waiting there, don’t be scared Don’t be scared It’s a very scary, very scary fairy tale if you don’t like the rain

about

Parabola West New Zealand

Mostly I write songs about our shared emotions, fears, and hiding places. Sometimes, just about rabbits. I hope you enjoy listening to the music as much as I enjoy creating it. If you find a piece of your story in here, sing it with me.
