lyrics
Set out alone
Head for the coast
Keep going east
'Til you find Peggy's Cove
Don't forget your coat
In case it gets cold
'Cause the further you get
The sooner you're home
And just so you know
I tried to find your ghost
I searched every river
And each open road
Didn't see you though
The trail just got cold
Even Nova Scotia
Didn't know which way to go
And I held onto hope
Like some kind of rope
'Til it twisted and burned me
And I had to let go
And I've seen the light
Since I left you that night
You said that leaving's the first part
Of meeting, it's alright
So I set to find
Some kind of sign
To let me know that
You're doing alright
Now I can see
What always was
It has to have been there
To know when it's gone
Set out alone
Head for the coast
Just let me know when
You're coming back home
Head for the coast
Keep going east
'Til you find Peggy's Cove
Don't forget your coat
In case it gets cold
'Cause the further you get
The sooner you're home
And just so you know
I tried to find your ghost
I searched every river
And each open road
Didn't see you though
The trail just got cold
Even Nova Scotia
Didn't know which way to go
And I held onto hope
Like some kind of rope
'Til it twisted and burned me
And I had to let go
And I've seen the light
Since I left you that night
You said that leaving's the first part
Of meeting, it's alright
So I set to find
Some kind of sign
To let me know that
You're doing alright
Now I can see
What always was
It has to have been there
To know when it's gone
Set out alone
Head for the coast
Just let me know when
You're coming back home

Romance 126
by Snow Mantled LoveA soon to be bedroom pop classic, with all the nuances of Sigur Ros, and the fragile modern beauty of Keaton Henson. This record is haunting and nostalgic in its closeness.
