The veteran Sheffield singer-songwriter returns with that shimmering guitar Duane Eddy/Link Wray sound, and story ‘about a deal that goes wrong’, heralding his album, In This City They Call You Love, his first for five years (since 2019’s Further) out on 31 May via BMG.

Love swims in the sun drowned down by the rain
One to care for the beyond us is only for the truest flames
Got to get to get myself on the top of that hill
Her Daddy got drunk and he wanted to kill
If she don’t love me then nobody will
It’s one for the Jacks and two for his heels
Two for his heels
Tell our secrets to the heart of my open road
Never get to paradise if paradise she all alone
Got to get to get myself on the top of that hill
Her Daddy got drunk and decided to kill
If she don’t love me then nobody will
It’s one for the Jacks and two for his heels
Two for his heels
Here I am a being of the dark on the edge of town
Like the howling in the heart of a dog as the sun goes down
Got to get to get myself on the top of that hill
Her Daddy got drunk and decided to kill
Is she don’t love me then nobody will
It’s one for the Jacks and two for his heels
Two for his heels
Love swims in the sun drowned down by the rain
To care for one beyond us is only for the truest flames
For the truest flames
