about

Recorded live to tape at Tilehouse Studios in 2016, we were saving our version of this Pentangle classic for a rainy day, or a global pandemic.

lyrics

There's people on the highway, people in the town, you just can't get away
I'm going to the mountain, going by the sea, you won't see me again
Goin' to move on buddy,
Leave my trouble and worry behind
Find a new home to rest my uneasy mind

For it's better to be going, better to be moving than clinging to your past
Love is made of living, dreams are made of sleeping,
better catch it while it lasts
Goin' to move on buddy,
Leave your trouble and worry behind
Find a new home to rest my uneasy mind

Sweet lady she won't call or knock upon my door
She won't see me at all

Goin' to move on buddy,
Leave my trouble and worry behind
Find a new home to rest my uneasy mind

If I stay I'll loose out for the dealer deals too fast and the
So I think I'll try a new game

Goin' to move on buddy,
Leave my trouble and worry behind
Find a new home to rest my uneasy mind

When you're feeling kind of blue and mixed up inside
And the good times are few
When everyday brings rain in a never ending flood and you're on your own again

Goin' to move on buddy,
Leave my trouble and worry behind
Find a new home to rest my uneasy mind

When It's hard to decide what should be your next move and what would be the outcome
When sunny days roll by and pass you unnoticed and time ceases to run

Goin' to move on buddy,
Leave my trouble and worry behind
Find a new home to rest your uneasy mind

about

The Lords of Thyme England, UK

No one can tell you what traditional English music is without tying themselves in handkerchief knots, but you know it when you hear it. The Lords Of Thyme are traditionally English in the same way that Pentangle or Fotheringay were traditionally English, but also in the same way that Julian Cope undoubtedly is. A hazy, blissed out, ancient and modern country of the strangest imaginations. ... more
