[Lyric] Ferryman (Johnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane)
[Chorus] Ferryman, ferryman Carry my memory on Out to the island On the horizon Following the path to the sun Following the path to the sun [Verse 1] Over the sandbar, holding the North Star Steady between mast and spar Creak of the oars and turn of the hours Keeping watch for the power Watch for the waves' breath, watch for the moon's death Down...Learn MorecountryJohnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane[Lyric] Flood in the Desert (Johnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane)
[Verse 1] In the daylight of our heartbreak In the moonlight of our making Two thousand years laying buried Under stones, the dust was shaking Where the deep down, deep down story The deep down, deep down clay Between Tigris and Euphrates Where the dust will have its way [Chorus] And we'll build a boat to sail, old time We’ll steer her hand to...Learn MorecountryJohnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane[Lyric] Home and Dry (Johnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane)
[Verse 1] Oh I'll row with the waves till the numbness And though the sea calls, your voice is my compass I'm pulled out by the swell Put your ear to the shell You can listen to my ocean song I'm singing through the roughest storm [Chorus] Oh when the winds are whipping at the big cut Licking at the quay wall We can feel the musterin' squall I...Learn MorecountryJohnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane[Lyric] Ten Degrees of Strange (Johnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane)
[Intro] One, two, three, four! [Verse 1] There's a black dog following hot on my trail Set firm on hollowing my heart till it fails Got nine days sleepless, seeking to keep this dog off my tail Lugged this old bag of bones through seven time zones Oh, I'm ten degrees of strange; I'm trying to change, trying to shake off my shadow Still hoping to...Learn MorecountryJohnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane[Lyric] Gods and Monsters (Johnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane)
[Verse 1] I thought I'd have to do battle With gods and monsters I thought I had to seek prophets On distant horizons Questions I never have answers for Questions that never have answers [Chorus] See the lights on the other side And I'm burning up Oh and the river flows fast and wide As I cross over [Verse 2] I thought the story had endings But...Learn MorerockJohnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane[Lyric] Bonedigger (Johnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane)
[Intro] One, two, three, four [Chorus] Bone-digger-bone, digger Diggerbone [Verse 1] I am the child of many countries Many changing lands Many shifting sands I am the fruit of several trees Being born to man By a million hands Playing do what you can [Chorus] Bone-digger-bone, digger Diggerbone Bone-digger-bone,...Learn MorecountryJohnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane[Lyric] The World to Come (Johnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane)
[Verse 1] On my way through the wood wound a thread through the dream Nightfall, footfall Trembling, looking for cracks in the seam Tree tall, river call Tumbling branches brushing the beach Across the river just out of reach We are sat in the wish and the wave of our willow Wondering, wondering Ran away from this swish and the shade of our...Learn MorecountryJohnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane[Lyric] Enkidu Walked (Johnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane)
[Intro] One, two, three, four [Chorus] Enkidu walked away Enkidu sighed in pain Enkidu wait for the flowers Enkidu walked again [Verse 1] Oh, you know I have no answers The trees have my heart and they won't give it back to me Now my eyes have been opened The future is crumbling The paths are all black with trees Oh friend, oh my friend Oh my...Learn MorecountryJohnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane[Lyric] Tree Rings (Johnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane)
[Verse 1] It was the first to the tellings of all of the fellings The axes’ swings and the bite of the blade Thirteen wings bind the forest kings As the doorway opens into the shade You called down the swallows and we wore their wings Followed that path to all that it brings As we counted, oh we counted A thousand tree rings [Chorus] And the time...Learn MorecountryJohnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane[Lyric] Nether (Johnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane)
[Verse 1] At the turn of the year came a turn in the weather A storm blew down the old ash tree And opened a way to the nether Riven world was plain to see Eons hid her in plain sight The storm she gave eyes to you and me [Chorus] To love the light, the fire's spark You must first have been buried in the deep down dark Deep down dark The deep down...Learn MorerockJohnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane[Lyric] I Can’t Swim There (Johnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane)
[Verse 1] I can't swim there, the sea is too rough I can't find the time table to catch the bus My friend Harry's got legs to spare But I can't find my body I've looked everywhere Oh the Lord keeps me waiting In the garden Oh, the Lord keeps me waiting In the bathroom [Chorus] Full of feelings, covered in dirt All hail the tide, the spirit and...Learn MorecountryJohnny Flynn & Robert Macfarlane
