Travelling through all these foreign places,
On the way to you,
Describing what I can,
In writing down letters that have waited,
Waited all this time,
To be written down for you.
Come what may,
I still have this burning here for you,
Like a fire on the Westward Hill,
So I’ll take any road you give me
Or the Devil gives me too,
I‘ll find my long way back to you.
I’m a ship on the wake of the sea,
I’m the black flint in the white chalk cliffs of Birling,
I’m a Seer that is crying out for your need,
I’m a runaway, all caught up again in a fuss I don’t need.
My old boots, I wear them when I’m sleeping,
On the passenger side of the car that you drive,
And through these hills,
The fences and the birthing lambs,
As they walk across the scrubby land,
That I love more than you know.
Oh, be good to me sweet memory,
Don’t let me down,
Bring the good times around,
And oh,
Be tender now,
Tender to my touch,
Tender to my love,
I watch you bloom; you don’t have to fade,
Like the flowers and the leaves, you will come back again,
The wintertime is a hard time to be free,
But my little one, the sun will shine on you when you need.
A look back at the late Bert Jansch's 1985 classic, "From The Outside," an album that bridges the gap between his native Scotland and the Americana his music invokes. Bandcamp Album of the Day Jun 14, 2016
