lyrics

Lyrics: Jess Silk

I step into the ocean, let the waves crash o’er my head
I’m not certain I’ll be home for you to see me safe to bed
‘Cause there are monsters in this world and some are not swayed by the light
But there’s a ghost that watches over me from the moon in the sky at night

At night oooohhhh
The sky at night oooohhhh

Walking shoeless through the fields I catch my foot and slowly fall
And I wipe my bloody heels upon the mat outside your door
As you offer me a life raft so I might float upon the waves
And a place to rest my head and dream a while until I wake

Until I wake oooohhhh
Until I wake oooohhhh

You say that you’re forever sat beside your little lake
And your hand it is my tether when they come for me to take
You say to hold on tight but in the end I let you go
And you are taken by the night but to where I do not know

I do not know oooohhhh
I do not know oooohhhh

I step into the ocean, let the waves crash o’er my head
I’m not certain I’ll be home for you to see me safe to bed
‘Cause there are monsters in this world and some are not swayed by the light
But you’re still watching over me from the moon in the sky at night

At night oooohhhh
The sky at night oooohhhh

Bio

Jess Silk is a guitarist, singer and songwriter from the Black Country. Her shouty but melodic brand of folk/punk music often has her being likened to a female Frank Turner or Billy Bragg, and it gets people sitting up and listening. Armed only with an increasingly sticker-covered acoustic guitar and a distinctive, gravely voice that many don’t expect, Jess plays to audiences up and down the UK.
