You Underestimate Me

I don’t mind hurting like a Mother, with a cross on my back
I carry the weight of the world all day
Steady I’m walking right into the black
With miles to go and a night that might freeze
If you don’t think I’m living
You underestimate me
All of the time I’ve wasted, just tracking the stars
Planning my way in good company
I stopped a-sailing before I went too far
I jumped in the water and sank to the deep
If you don’t think I’m moving
You underestimate me
So just leave me something for drinking when the party is done
And I’ll make no promises I can’t keep
I’ve always lost more than I’ve ever won
But it’s a quiet revolution we live so it seems
If you don’t think I’m ready
You underestimate me
If you don’t think I’m ready
You underestimate me

Tentsmuir Sky

Redshank fly, Roe deer run
Run away fly away, if not tomorrow then today
Chase the morning, don’t go let it pass you by
And the sun is rising, filling up the Tentsmuir Sky
And who knows how she draws new life
Where it’s coming from, going to, turns in a circle round the moon
Pretty orbit, what a dream to fill my own eyes
And she shines down on you all night
The Tentsmuir Sky
Catch the wind, feel it blow, I’m going to miss her when I go
I know, I know, I know
Catch the wind, feel it blow, I’m going to miss her when I go
I know, I know, I know
She’s high above me, high above me
If I should fall, drowned in light
Through the great canopy and past the might of every Pine
Let me feel it, the weight of all the years gone by
And she keeps all their secrets with her
The Tentsmuir Sky
Search yourself, or search the sea
Unexplored, far away and unfamiliar to me
But it’s turning, and Spring is waking with a sigh
And the wildflowers are blooming for her
The Tentsmuir Sky
Catch the wind, feel it blow, I’m going to miss her when I go
I know, I know, I know
Catch the wind, feel it blow, I’m going to miss her when I go
I know, I know, I know
She’s high above me, high above me
High above me, high above me

Fly High

I don’t remember most things I have seen
I shed my history just so I can breathe
But I keep the truths, and I sure remember you
But it’s getting colder and the nights are dark
I turned around you’ve never seemed so far
I think I heard your name, but it didn’t sound the same
Chorus: And go fly high my love
Yeah go fly high my love
Don’t shut the windows and leave the doors
Let the night go through you like a trojan horse
I’m watching you begin
Breathing the madness in
And don’t go walking down a one way track
Don’t go committing yourself to now way back
We change in time
We all change in time
Chorus: So go fly high my love
Yeah go fly high my love
Oooh wandering
Oooh darling
Oooh waking my soul
Wake my soul now
And who can really see beyond the sky
I’m no believer but for you I’ll try
There must be more
For you there must be more
Chorus: So go fly high my love
Yeah go fly high my love
Oh go fly high my love
Oh go fly high my love

Passing Through

Well I like to watch the sun come up when the city’s feeling young
I like the coffee in my cup hot and overrun
I like the way my baby’s love is always right behind
I turn around and find it just like new
The world spins on and I’m just passing through
Sometimes you bleed man sometimes you cry
Sometimes the chaos calls
Sometimes you build right up to the sky just to see how it feels to fall
Sometimes the colours come raining down and soak you til you shine
Sometimes they just leave you feeling blue
Yeah that’s alright and I’m just passing through
So I’m gonna leave the stars to the sky and the mystery to the mind
Leave the conquering to the voyagers and let ‘em keep what they find
I’m gonna take one day at a time and just enjoy the view
What tomorrow brings is surely something new
I’m on my way and I’m just
That’s alright and I’m just
The world spins on and I’m just passing through

Bloody Noses EP
by Richard Thompson
supported by 4 fans who also own “Horticulture”
John Drumbo French from Captain Beefheart and The Magic Band worked with Thompson on two albums along with Fred Frith and Henry Kaiser. Those two French, Frith, Kaiser and Thompson albums led me to this. Also, Richard Thompson taught Hugh Cornwell (of The Stranglers) how to play the bass guitar in a band when they were both at the same school (Emil and The Detectives?). With a career spanning 50 years and playing with two of my heroes (French and Cornwell) Thompson has produced a fascinating EP.
