Alexi Murdoch - Crinan Wood Lyrics






It was cold, you had your hands inside your sleeves
As we walked I heard the laughter in the leaves
See the shadows lying now where once we stood
And I would lie down right there if only I could

The music came to me, it came across the sound
And you laughed and shown and danced a circle around
As we walked away, I saw a shadow on the ground
There were stones inside my pockets that I found

When I was younger I heard angels on the roof
As thousand voices singing, each one was the truth
Well a wise young lad, I left them in my youth
And I have only just my memory for proof

See a doorway open on a darker road

Out in the garden, thread lies broken on the loom
See a face that's smiling, quick around the wall
And in the distance, mountains waiting for the fall

See these knots around my hands, around my feet
They would take me down my end for me to meet
I grow weary of this struggle and this fight
The morning's so far off from out here in the night

The night is cold and you must leave me, this I know
And empty all the places where we used to go
Before I knew you I went climbing in the snow
Called your name out to the darkness down below

    To this day one of the only artists that actually makes me feel something. Especially this song, but I guess it's just about the memories... God bless y'all.

  2. J.... S....

  3. M.... H....

  4. C.... ....

    It's hard when your best friend decides to move out...

  5. m.... m....

    sitting in my secret garden, drinking coffee and listening to this lovely song, makes the evening light and easy.

    m.... m....

    +melba murray try listening to this on a terrace, over looking the ocean with woods at your back.

  6. K.... A....

    like a breath of fresh air, soothing. light and a beautiful song. I'm a fan.

  7. K.... D....

    The feels. I loved Chuck but I didn't like the ending, Sarah loosing most of her memories? I mean it was good too (some parts). Nice to see Jeff and Lester got their dream of a music career.

  11. E.... d....

    What's chuck?....alexi you're an angel:)

  12. E.... M....

    I don't think anyone finds music only from TV programmes but if someone hears a song they like on a programme you've got to respect that they bothered to even find out what it was because they're interested enough in music. You can't expect someone to have heard every song ever. Maybe hearing this song on Chuck is the thing that totally gets someone into this style of music! Don't be so bloody obnoxious!

    If you need TV shows to find your music then you need to start looking harder

  24. g.... ....

    @smile953 What is Chuck?

  25. B.... ....

    I remember when I went to see him do a show in a bar in southern California a few months ago, and he started this song. He must've played the build up for like 2 minutes before he said anything, and when he did, it was hilarious. He just stopped playing and quietly said "no, don't like it. let's do it again." and he just started over! We were all lol'ing. We weren't sure what he saw wrong with his first try, but, whatever, it's his song. Still a beautiful song, but I'll never forget that.

  26. i.... ....
