SHALL I BE A SAINT
Shall I be a saint and live in the mountains
Gather my desires into a treasure box
Throw it from a mountain into the sea
Shall I learn kindness from the trees
Shall I become a gypsy man
Stroke your heart instead of a fiddle
Shall I travel to New York City
And write you letters from there
Shall I wear no crown if I’ll be the Queen
Shall I ban computers and then TV
Shall I unite all my demons
Shall I set them free
Given so much choice we cannot choose
Shall I be a man and make love to the mermaids
Finish all the wars someone started for me
Shall I finally become a woman
Out of our bodies make a nest
Shall I become old and beautiful
With the Moon map on my face
Shall I waste no time and just go to Hollywood
Like that Scottish man used to shout for me
Given so much choice we cannot choose

Gravity of Your Face

GRAVITY OF YOUR FACE
It’s hard to see your face and not fall on it
The gravity of it is stronger than the Earth’s
But I broke the gravity, I broke the rules of the Earth
I learnt to fall again but not on you
So go please go if you need to go
All your invisible love, all your invisible pain
I hide it in my veins, I hide it from myself
So go please go if you need to go
All the pain we have, all the pain we share
Tigers lions feed on our hearts
What will be of it in 100 years
What will be of it in 100 days
Elleda Elleda! Elleda Elleda!
So go please go if you need to go today

SILENCE IS KIND
How you say it
How you keep it
How you grow it
How you give it
How you throw it
How I catch it
How you hold it
How you shut it
How you go
How I stay
How you leave it
How I breathe it
How you touch it
How you break it
How you lose it
How you say it
You say it you say it you say it
And all the things are falling apart
You say it you say it you say it
And lions grow in my heart
Silence is good you know
Silence is kind sometimes
Please don’t say it
Please don’t keep it
Please don’t grow it
Please don’t give it
Please don’t throw it
I can’t catch it
Please don’t hold it
Please don’t shut it
Please don’t go
I can’t stay
Please don’t leave it
I can’t breathe it
Please don’t touch it
Please don’t break it
Please don’t lose it
Please don’t say it
You say it you say it you say it
And all the things are falling apart
You say it you say it you say it
And lions grow in my heart
Silence is good you know
Silence is kind

MAMA MAMA
When the night comes down and you cannot sleep
Thinking about all the troubles that will happen to me
He slowly comes into my life
He slowly comes into my room
Shadows growing on the walls
Shadows growing like the tree
Mama Mama I want him to steal me
Mama Mama pretend you’re asleep
And when night is slowly falling
His hands are falling on me
When the night comes down and I cannot fall asleep
Thinking about all the troubles that did happen to me
He slowly came into my life
He slowly came into my room
Shadows dancing in my belly
Shadows growing like the sea
Mama Mama I want him to steal me
Mama Mama pretend you’re asleep
And when night is slowly falling
His hands are falling on me

Four more winners on this excellent release. Have loved 'Honey' from the first time I heard it, as there's plenty of passion and spirit in Sarah's awesome vocals. An EP of fast and slow contrasts that's always mesmerising.
