lyrics
The Deepest Breath
Cold the hand that once held yours
Furrowed face now forever empty
She was old before she’d lived her youth
Hollowed out in a land of plenty
Did you dream last night, child?
Did your dream stay with you?
Oh, the city sucks the wild from your mind
So hold your dream before it hits you
And wear your dreams, they’re all that fit you
We dig these graves every day
Eternal homes denied in lifetime
And the rich men wave our lives away
Can’t see a soul without a price tag
Did you dream last night, child?
Did your dream stay with you?
Oh, this town can burn the bright of your mind
So hold your dream before it hits you
And wear your dreams, they’re all that fit you
Oh sing, friend, if you’ve a song to sing
For your songs are a glimpse of a flickering freedom
And we’re not yet spent and we’ve a world to win
Ah, there’ll be no king but it’ll be our kingdom
Did you dream last night, child?
Did your dream stay with you?
Oh, this land can leech the light from your life
So hold your dream before it hits you
And wear your dreams, they’re all that fit you
And will you sing on now, love?
You’ve got songs a plenty
Oh, they’ll try to tear the truth from your mouth
So sing on strong, make sure they’ve felt it
Oh sing on now, for your soul’s not empty
Sing on, sing on,
In your song flies the highest hope of all
Dream on, dream on,
Our dreams are the deepest breath we draw

Absolutely love that deep concertina sound. And the range of expression that Cormac brings out through this instrument, well beyond the intentions of the designers or makers of these instruments. And, feel sorry for his poor bellows and reeds. He has to do a lot of personal repair on them. Cormac's album design and presentation are beautiful works of art as well. See him in concert if you can. You can really feel those bass notes resonate through a hall. balinsky
