about

I was approached by For Folk's Sake to provide a Christmas song for their compilation in 2013. I had just moved to London, and I was inspired by the sense of manic despair along Holloway Road. And Silent Night such a pretty melody.

Video was made for it here www.youtube.com/watch?v=yI7H26Y-TPo

lyrics

Silent night holy night
Pray for calm pray for light
Bitter winter has taken your cheer
Tiresome company spoiled your beer
If only I could sleep
If only I could sleep

Violent night lonely night
Suited men starting fights
Threat of danger in the air
Dodging cars in the square
Drink in heavenly fear
Drink in heavenly fear

Silent night holy night
Hold me dear my new bride
Take your dress off and come to me
You the present I long to see
Glide in heavenly sheets
Sleep in heavenly peace
