A fabulous, spine-tingling cover by the acclaimed Dublin band, produced by Elbow’s Guy Garvey, and taken from a forthcoming album of songs by legendary folk singer – The Endless Coloured Ways: The Songs Of Nick Drake. The album, arriving in the summer, features 30 different artists across 25 tracks, including Aldous Harding, Ben Harper, Emeli Sandé, Philip Selway, John Grant, Bombay Bicycle Club & The Staves, and AURORA. Out on Partisan Records / Chrysalis Records.
Strange face, with your eyes
So pale and sincere
Underneath you know well
You have nothing to fear
For the dreams that came to you when so young
They told of a life
Where spring is sprung
So forget this cruel world
Where I belong
I'll just sit and wait
And sing my song
But while the earth sinks to its grave
You sail to the sky
On the crest of a wave
