lyrics
Many girls made me a fool
But nothing ever felt so cruel
As the trick time played on us
You found me bleeding from the chest
We built a home and I did my best
To resuscitate your trust
And you kissed better the wounds
You couldn't have known about
And even though I wasn't nothing to write home about
You said I was your hero til I believed I could be mine
Gave me strength in my mind
To take my wings up and fly
To the sunshine
We planted seeds of all our plans
But they all crumbled in our hands
As the winter came too fast
But you can't blame him for our dying flowers
And you can't hold on to meteor showers
But they're perfect while they last
But we can't wait for each other,
This train has run the line
You're out there on your station
And I'm up here on mine
Your shattered on the platform
But darling, bide your time
At the end of the storm
Darling all you will find
Is sunshine
Though my heart's known many thorns
My scars ain't got nothing on yours
But you fight on anyway
And even though we've come unstuck
Girl, all I know is your bad luck
Is cashed in for the day
I know there's good things waiting
Remember that the night
Is only ever at its darkest just before the light
Just keep on moving forward
Well I'm sailing right behind
And at the end of the line
You'll get yours, I'll get mine
Green grass, the other side
Every rain cloud behind
Waits sunshine
But nothing ever felt so cruel
As the trick time played on us
You found me bleeding from the chest
We built a home and I did my best
To resuscitate your trust
And you kissed better the wounds
You couldn't have known about
And even though I wasn't nothing to write home about
You said I was your hero til I believed I could be mine
Gave me strength in my mind
To take my wings up and fly
To the sunshine
We planted seeds of all our plans
But they all crumbled in our hands
As the winter came too fast
But you can't blame him for our dying flowers
And you can't hold on to meteor showers
But they're perfect while they last
But we can't wait for each other,
This train has run the line
You're out there on your station
And I'm up here on mine
Your shattered on the platform
But darling, bide your time
At the end of the storm
Darling all you will find
Is sunshine
Though my heart's known many thorns
My scars ain't got nothing on yours
But you fight on anyway
And even though we've come unstuck
Girl, all I know is your bad luck
Is cashed in for the day
I know there's good things waiting
Remember that the night
Is only ever at its darkest just before the light
Just keep on moving forward
Well I'm sailing right behind
And at the end of the line
You'll get yours, I'll get mine
Green grass, the other side
Every rain cloud behind
Waits sunshine

Morning Walking Club
by Gaz Brookfieldsupported by 29 fans who also own “Sunshine”
Great album. Almost a blend of Old Style and New Style Gaz. Delighted to have seen him perform two of the tracks live at Glastonbury. His performance was better than ever, and the songs are right up there with his best.

such bad things happen
by Levi Fuller & the LibraryTurbulent indie rock from Levi Fuller & the Library that has the snarl of hardcore and the knotty meter of math rock.

Well Soon
by Walter Mitty and his Makeshift OrchestraSummer sounds from San Luis Obispo just waiting for a backyard BBQ, mason jar cocktails, and fairy lights.
go to album -
Introspective, homespun folk tunes from John Donne that feel informed by the sugary bleakness of '80s and '90s indie pop.

This has been a hard year as a social worker I recognise that I am not facing the reality of the saving of lives and I despair at how the government have treated our nhs people. I have been responding to the needs and crisis faced by children and young people in care . Carers with health vulnerability with challenging teens who won’t follow the rules- risks there create anxiety, carers of children who have been abused and traumatised- limited services - songs like this keep me going thanks
