Plumes - Secret Love

Veronica Charnley - voice, Eveline Grégoire-Rousseau - harp, Geof Holbrook - bass, Mark Nicols - drums
recorded at Little Bullhorn Studios in Ottawa, Canada
Lyrics based on poem by John Clare

I had hid my love in field and town
‘Till even the breeze had knocked me down.
Wild bees seemed to sing ballads o’er ‘Till the fly’s bass turned a lion’s roar.
Even silence found a tongue to haunt me all summer long.
I had hid my love in river and sea ‘Till a wave rose to swallow me.
Looking to the clouds I thought he'd leave no trace ‘Till I saw the clouds had formed his face.
Even silence found a tongue to haunt me all summer long.
