Raise You Up 03:49
Raise you Up - no capo C#m, E, A, A+B // B, F, A I need to dilute the taste of today from my lips Don’t wanna wallow or burn at every turn All I need is friendship There’s enough fire inside you to put hell to shame I wanna give you the strength get on your wavelength Drawn like the moth to the flame But the Bird that walks in the narrow cage Can’t fight through huis bars of rage Till he opens his mouth to sing We pour ourselves into each other Till he tries to spread his wings We pour ourselves into each other I’ll raise you up I’ll raise you up I’ll raise you up I’ll raise you up I hope you’re so proud of me coz I’m so proud of you We took the things they did and turned them into something true Show me the most troubled parts of your soul And I will show you how they shine like solid gold But the Bird that walks in the narrow cage Can’t fight through huis bars of rage Till he opens his mouth to sing We pour ourselves into each other Till he tries to spread his wings We pour ourselves into each other I’ll raise you up I’ll raise you up I’ll raise you up I’ll raise you up

The Small Things - played on kiddy Uke! When I wake up you’re already staring at me Like the kid in the movies who’s possessed You have the energy of a ninja but you’re only 3 Do you think I’m impressed? More footsteps and I remember there are two of you How did I not notice that it is silly o’ clock? Both bundle in and I have a small football team in my bed Why did we not use the lock? Ohhhhh but this is heaven Or am I masochistic? Ohhhh it’s definitely supercalifragelistic Sunday Morning let’s go softplay Please no that’s not mummy’s forte Can we all go outside? Sun is shining life is good Let’s explore our neighbourhood Enjoy the small things The only things that matter Why’s there porridge in my hair I’ve let things slip I’m well aware Pass me the biscuit tin Rough and tumble bounce around Trying to avoid a nervous breakdown Is it time for gin? Ohhhhh but this is heaven Or am I masochistic? Ohhhh it’s definitely supercalifragelistic Sunday Morning let’s go softplay Please no that’s not mummy’s forte Can we all go outside? Sun is shining life is good Let’s explore our neighbourhood Enjoy the small things The only things that matter

My Valentine 04:00
My Valentine - Love requires no answers And no reciprocation Love is not a balance on a scale And exchange of information Love is a fruit in season at all times Within the reach of every hand So why does this love you speak of Leave me feeling like a no mans land? You asked me what you mean to me My darling you’re my poetry Head over heels so unknowingly I’ve been waiting all this time in the sunshine Ripening on the vine For you to be my valentine Turtle Doves may sing their song But we sing this one together The winter’s been so lonely But spring makes us birds of a feather You asked me what you mean to me My darling you’re my poetry Head over heels so unknowingly I’ve been waiting all this time in the sunshine Ripening on the vine For you to be For you to be For you to be my valentine

Amsterdam 02:41
Amsterdam Knock Knock I’m all waited out over here Let loose lets go kick some dust Clink clink no time for sobriety don’t wanna stick or twist let’s go get bust We’re plugging in gonna make the great escape No fanfare don’t give a damn Flyin’ bout 30000 feet making Headway down into Amsterdam Shots lined up on the tables Beer stacked up in a line My fall from grace is about to be sublime We’re gon’ be dancin’ on the tables Throwing shapes to our favourite jams The best place to have a good time is Amsterdam I should be reigning myself back in tonight But I got trouble in mind This angel should relent but what’s the use just need a friend to hold my hand this time Shots lined up on the tables Beer stacked up in a line My fall from grace is about to be sublime We’re gon’ be dancin’ on the tables Throwing shapes to our favourite jams The best place to have a good time is Amsterdam Shots lined up on the tables Beer stacked up in a line My fall from grace is about to be sublime We’re gon’ be dancin’ on the tables Throwing shapes to our favourite jams The best place to have a good time The best place to have a good time Is Amsterdam whoaaaaa

The Way It Ends - Capo 4 C#m, B, G#m, A It’s written all over your face Something don’t feel right You pull me in get under my skin Something don’t feel right Something’s changed the way you say her name Cuts right through me Something’s changed don’t wanna play this game Give it right to me I won’t break I deserve better than this It’s too late I see this for what it is This isn’t how it started I hope it’s not the way it ends If this ain’t where your heart is Then tell me why do we pretend? I lay awake staring out at your space Wonder where you are tonight So many memories of us in this place Makes me wonder where you are tonight Something’s changed the way you say her name Cuts right through me Something’s changed don’t wanna play this game Give it right to me I won’t break I deserve better than this It’s too late I see this for what it is You say It’s her, she stole your heart (you were never meant to know) Let’s take some time apart (I don’t wanna let you go)

about

This double EP was born out of a direct artist to fan relationship.

My Crichton Clan have been with me every step on the way, from offering suggestions for topics to write about, to choosing which songs to go on the EP, voting for their favourite, being included in decisions on artwork, format and also merch, to even starring in music videos!

This is a collection of songs created for fans of music, fans of independent musicians, who want to ride sidecar in the creative process and get involved in all aspects of the journey. I am SO so so grateful to my Crichton Clan for supporting me with this EP. This is for you xxx
