lyrics
Sunday's Daughter - by David Elias
With a suitcase and radio
And some baggage from the past
How I got here baby, I don't know
Or even if it's gonna last
I missed a drop off back in Tennessee
A couple of friends I'm supposed to meet
I just stayed on Greyhound's limosine
It's nothing I cannot repeat
Early water
Early rain
Early mornings all alone
Sunday's daughter
Lays her claim
Under this river made of stone
I have lost many times
But I keep it all inside
Like tides that cross
Between the lines
I wonder if it's mine to hide
These rocks can heal
With memories
They can't return if they don't leave
So if you feel some distant breeze
Move you along
That's all you need
Early water
Early rain
Early mornings all alone
Sunday's daughter
Lays her claim
Under this river made of stone
Sunday's daughter
Lays her claim
Under this river made of stone
With a suitcase and radio
And some baggage from the past
How I got here baby, I don't know
Or even if it's gonna last
I missed a drop off back in Tennessee
A couple of friends I'm supposed to meet
I just stayed on Greyhound's limosine
It's nothing I cannot repeat
Early water
Early rain
Early mornings all alone
Sunday's daughter
Lays her claim
Under this river made of stone
I have lost many times
But I keep it all inside
Like tides that cross
Between the lines
I wonder if it's mine to hide
These rocks can heal
With memories
They can't return if they don't leave
So if you feel some distant breeze
Move you along
That's all you need
Early water
Early rain
Early mornings all alone
Sunday's daughter
Lays her claim
Under this river made of stone
Sunday's daughter
Lays her claim
Under this river made of stone

David Elias recommends:
-
Intricate, exacting, sonically meticulous, extemporary in all its planning, takes you into a room then into a field then into the void.

Because of a Flower
by Ana RoxanneBought the vinyl. Spectacular use of sound with some insane vocal tracks overhead.
go to album -
Start at the end and play it backwards. Or forwards. Sideways either way. Squarely unsquare and rapidly descending. Captured.
