THE SWELL SEASON: IN THESE ARMS.


We Cannot forget "Once" (2007) The film that joined Glenn Handsard and Marketa Irglova. Although they had recorded a previous album which they called THE SWELL SEASON. Today we have chosen IN THESE ARMS that belongs to the last album "Strict Joy" (2010). Hope you like.



LYRICS

Use the truth
As a weapon
To beat up all your friends
Every chink in the armor
An excuse to cause offense
And the boys from the hallway
Calling out your name
And you love
Find them in the end
You are restles
I was somewhere less secure
So I went running to the row
And so now that the longest of places I was
I quit my rambling and come home
'Cause maybe I was born to hold you in these arms
Maybe I was born to hold you in these arms

x2

And your saints
And your mantra
And you.... To keep you calm
If you stay
With that asshole
Is gonna do you harm
As the voice singing loudly on the radio

Just for you
And good fortune
Will find him in the end
Maybe I was born to hold you in these arms
Maybe I was born to hold you in these arms
Maybe I was born to hold you in these arms
Maybe I was born to hold you in these arms

DAMIEN RICE & LISA HANNIGAN: UNPLAYED PIANO.


DAMIEN RICE is one of our favourites singer-songwriters. He is extremely sensitive and we think his two albums "O" and "9 Crimes" are both master pieces. LISA HANNIGAN has a great talent and She has shown it in her solo career without the shadow of Rice. UNPLAYED PIANO (2005) was released as a single by Hannigan and Rice to support the Free Aung San Suu Kyi 60th Birthday campaign which was running at the time. Rice is known for its commitment to some charities.




LYRICS

Come and see me
Sing me to sleep
Come and free me
Or hold me if i need to weep
Or maybe it's not the season
Or maybe it's not the year
Or maybe there's no good reason
Why i'm locked up inside
Just cause they wanna hide me
The moon goes bright
The darker they make my night

Unplayed pianos
Are often by a window
In a room where nobody loved goes
She sits alone with her silent song
Somebody bring her home

Unplayed piano (unplayed piano)
Still holds a tune (still holds a tune)
Lock on the lid (years, years pass by)
In a stale, stale room (in the changing of the moon)
Maybe it's not that easy (too many windows)
Or maybe it's not that hard (in a stale, stale room)
Maybe they could release me (stale, stale room)
Let the people decide
I've got nothing to hide
I've done nothing wrong
So why've i been here so long?

Unplayed pianos
Are often by a window
In a room where nobody loved goes
She sits alone with her silent song
Somebody bring her home

Unplayed pianos
Are often by a window
In a room where nobody loved goes
She sits alone with her silent song
Somebody bring her home

Unplayed piano (unplayed piano)
Still holds a tune
Years pass by
In the changing of the moon
