Beautifully interwoven vocals and guitar riffs distinguish this bewitching, ghostly new single by the British singer-songwriter from her forthcoming new album Weather Alive, out on 23 September on Partisan Records, her first LP for six years. The video is inspired by Orton exploring women as mystics and witchcraft as a form of spiritual connection rather than evil, according to directors Stephen Ellcock and Jonathan Reid-Edwards, seeking to express “a journey both cosmic and macrocosmic, from outer to inner space and back again. A kaleidoscope of archetypal imagery and shifting perspectives seen through a miraculous scrying glass, it subverts stereotypes whilst celebrating the power of intuition and the persistence of hope and magic in a treacherous universe.”

My love, don't you sing for me?
My love, won't you sing for me?
Am I not your poetry?
Then why don't you sing for me?
In the coliseum
Madness and reason
Laid out with the weight of snow
Come back my love and see
Come and see what a mess
They made of this
Your eyes they're as wide as stars
Your eyes they're as wide as stars
Your blood is as black as tar
Ain't you beautiful, beautiful as you ever were
In the coliseum
Fighting and screaming
Weightless as the sound of snow
Come back my lovе and see
Come and see what a mess
They madе of this
All I want, all I need
Where you are tonight
Won't you come find me
And we could go rolling, rolling, rolling my darling
Go rolling down that avenue
Go back in time go back in time
Where the river runs wild
Our love will be forever young
Our love will be forever young
Beautiful as you ever are
Beautiful as you ever are
