about

Song #10 from my Living Room Sessions!
And that one is a sweet little song about my home away from home: Glasgow.
Deciding to come here 4 years ago, on a whim, just by putting my finger on a map, jumping into the unknown and hoping for the best, was a pretty good move :)
Glasgow and especially its people gave me the confidence and strength I needed to pursue this challenging career. I met beautiful souls, incredible musicians and made some dear friends.
I recorded and released my debut EP here, organised my very 1st European tour, got the opportunity to teach my instrument...
From the moment I stepped out of the plane, I felt comfortable and welcome here. So I just wanted to write a little thank you note to this lovely city and the people who make it :)

lyrics

Verse 1:
Stepped out of the plane
A new smell in the air
One suitcase in my hand
Hopes and dreams to manifest
Ventured into a city
I chose randomly
For the possible relief
It would offer me

Pre-chorus
Silver skies you cry but the people smile like they don't mind
They try to show me why I should take their side

Chorus
Glasgow
Cannot get away
You caught me up and gave me will
It's been a long time coming
Don't get me wrong
I miss home everyday
But there's not much that I would change

Verse 2
So it begins again
Temporary places
Little reminders by a little girl singing
(every morning)
And the friends I make
Strangers we're all the same
Looking for our way
In this beautiful land

Pre-chorus
Silver skies you cry but the people smile like they don't mind
They showed me I was right to take their side

Chorus
Glasgow
Cannot get away
You caught me up and gave me will
It's been a long time coming
Don't get me wrong
I miss home everyday
But there's not much that I would change

Bridge
4 years on
I keep singing my songs
Open mics, little stages
In other cities
I found my way
The darkness dissipates
I can see the light amongst the Glasgow clouds (x2)

Glasgow
Cannot get away
You caught me up...
It's been a long time coming
Don't get me wrong
I miss home everyday
But there's not much that I would change

Chorus
Glasgow
Cannot get away
You caught me up and gave me will
It's been a long time coming
Don't get me wrong
I miss home everyday
But there's not much that I would change
