about

‘’Lightly Looms started as a poem written at a small retreat in the south of France. and was quickly transformed into a song with co-writer Edy smith who also plays the keys on the track with producer Andrew Stuart-Buttle providing whistling strings that to me almost sound like distant vocals calling out. With Mixer Oliver Baldwin giving the track that M.Ward Lo-Fi Folk feel. Lyrically its more abstract than most of my other songs, It’s about walking down the street & feeling good about yourself. It’s about just how big the universe is… and about the importance of being able to let go.’’

lyrics

Lightly looms: written by Michael Baker and EDWARD CHARLES SMITH

Lightly looms those lovely lines
Tall the moon tie the sky
For June is youth violet sky
Tooth for tooth eye for eye

I’m caught up in a good place
So pass the kite
But how to let it go
My cynical demeanour, is my palindrome
Or maybe I’m just lost inside these walls

My fever grows with my distain
So tie the moon to this place
Don’t I deserve my own space?
Is it tooth for tooth
Or violent days

I’m caught up in a good place
So pass the kite
But how to let it go
My cynical demeanour is my palindrome
Or maybe I’m just lost inside these walls
