The sun is setting quite early you should get used to the dark the mood is getting a bit surly now it's the time to reunite with our friends and the sun is going to wear the hot pants... chase the sun – it's always shining we have to look beyond the clouds i know it's hard but we can do it and suddenly we can see through it.

Oh Oh I Told You So We're Gonna Get Stuck In The Stop & Go F am7 gm7 C Love how you you purr when we shift up a gear your motor's humming is so soothing.

I hope we can make it in time got to a point where we should press rewind Oh Oh I Told You So We're Gonna Get Stuck In The Stop & Go D dm7 C C Bj7 Asus4/7 F am7 Bb C Oh Oh...

Hope you won't get mad when we fail Cj7 G9/H am7/11 Esus4 (2x) Aadd9 Cj7 G f#m7 hm7/11 dm7 F9/G C F#dim em7 F Cj7/E dm7/9 F/G C F#dim em7 Fj7 em7 F9/G Fj7/9 am7/11 Gsus4 ----------------------------------------------------- I guess you don't know all the pictures I have in mind while you were tossing and turning I've sorted it all out. So now it's all clear we should quit this town my dear and while we're running hold my hand. Oooh it is nature's way there is no chance to stay time, it is running out lies are hushed in a cloud truth lies ahead hope you won't get too mad when we fail... I hope you don't mind that we're leaving all behind all of the things you are loving I've thrown it all away. So here's the idea we will start again my dear and while we're leaving hold my hand... Oooh it is nature's way there is no chance to stay time, it is running out lies are hushed in a cloud truth lies ahead hope you won't get too mad when we fail...

about

"Drenched is a record of sunlight and warmth that sprouts (see what I did there?) bittersweet joy from every luscious note, to listen is like wrapping yourself in your favourite blanket (doesn’t everyone have one?) and shutting out the world for thirty minutes.

There is a generosity of spirit here that can’t fail to bathe you in its golden glow, yes there’s a definite early to mid period Prefab Sprout twist in evidence, almost a jingle jangle, bedroom pop Steely Dan minus the more lacerating lyrical barbs, I could almost imagine Donald Fagen taking a guest spot on fatalistic opener 'It All Goes Down from Here My Dear'.

Final track, 'Just Like to Be Near to Me' pulls the carpet from under you, stretching out over eight and a half engrossing minutes, insidious, groovy bass, almost psychedelic sound affects and fragments of female vocals (can you believe there’s a Karen Carpenter sample, how perfect is that? The clue is in the title) edge towards some kind of indie dub effect. I think the kids once called something this good, ‘a total blast’ and far be it for me to differ."
