from No Simple Highway - Album by SomeRiseSomeFall

/

about

Anna Mitchell and her band revisit this aching song of love by BethGibbons (Portishead) & Rustin's Man (Paul Webb) which was originally on their 2002 album "Out of Season"

Beautiful video which catches the essence of the song through the lens of lcokdown in Ireland

lyrics

Funny Time of Year
​
These silent words of conversation
Hold me now this adulation
See me now
Oh it's easy now

Falling like a silent paper
Holding on to what may be
And I only hear
Only hear the rain

And many rains turn to rivers

Winter's here
And there ain't nothing gonna change
The winds are blowing telling me all I hear
Oh it's a funny time of year
There'll be no blossom on the trees

Turning now I see no reason
The voice of love so out of season
I need you now
But you can't see me now

I'm travelling with no destination
Still hanging on to what may be
It's a funny time of year
I can see
There'll be no blossom on the trees

And time spent crying has taken me in this year
Oh it's a funny time of year
There'll be no blossom on the trees

Falling like a silent paper
Holding on to what may be
It's a funny time of year
I can see
There'll be no blossom on the trees

And time spent crying has taken me in this year
It's a funny time of year
I can see no blossom no blossom on the trees

Falling like a silent paper
Holding on to what may be
It's a funny time of year
I can see
There'll be no blossom on the trees

And time spent crying has taken me in this year
It's a funny time of year
I can see no blossom no blossom on the trees
