lyrics

How've you been spending these long nights
I was worrying about you, heard that you're all right
From the cradle to crow, sitting on the fence
Searching for the reasons, the recompense

Hold my sorrows at the door
I'm waiting on tomorrow, nothing more
Baby you're the one I'm thinking on

Some days are easy but it turns on a pin
Sweeps all before you, draws the damage in
My mind's a fool when I long for you
A river with no reason, a sky with no blue

Hold my sorrows at the door
I'm waiting on tomorrow, nothing more
Baby you're the one I'm still thinking on

I'm sitting by the rails, keeping by the sun
Falling into winter, soon the summer comes
Somebody asking where you're heading to
I see no reason to run

Ned Roberts London, UK

Ned first started gigging when living up in York, playing old folk covers and the odd Dylan tune. Not long after writing his first songs, he was discovered by producer Luther Russell (Sarabeth Tucek, Richmond Fontaine, Noah & The Whale) and brought to Los Angeles to record. The pair have since developed a close creative partnership. Dream Sweetheart, Ned's third album, is released on 7/2/20. ... more

Thanks for "Red Kites". Well, the whole album actually. Saw an Uncut magazine review out here in the southern Utah dust and thought I should give it a listen. Glad I did. Jerry Cooney

Unbound speaks healing words, but the music feels like healing, very special and moving but so simple. Just a guitar and a piano. I'm sure the glitter and ambience she put in the vinyl helps! <3 shadyneutron
