'A New Day at Midnight'

Definately in the running for one of the the most tender, most beautiful and most evocative song he has done. Why it was a so-called 'b-side' I just don't know. The man is an artist.

Oh my word, I've never seen
A day so gold and earth so green
I put my face into the stream
That I might see what might have been

Oh my heart, how time has flown
Feet that pass along the stone
I hardly recognised my home
All the paths had overgrown

The music and the laughter gone...

Upon my soul, I've never felt
So free of all the chains I'd built
All the pain and all the guilt
Vanished now beneath the silt

I'm stridin' 'cross Orion's belt...

Oh my word, I...I
Oh my word, I...I
Oh my word, I...I
Oh my word, I...I
