about

I remember when I was living in Mt Eden hearing this song for the first time. Struggling with addiction at the time, I just broke down while my friend held me. A bleak era, but this song has had a profound impact on me.

I have the upmost respect for Aldous, her songs, her performances and her general attitude. The original version is unique, I haven't heard anything like it before. So, I wanted to re-imagine it in a more generic sense.

Please bear in mind I am not a recording engineer or producer so if the mix doesn't sound too great that why, it's my first go at it.

Above everything, thank you to Aldous Harding for releasing such a wonderful song.

Peace yeah cool nah kia ora

lyrics

Let me put the water in the bowl
For your wounds, babe
Let me fill you up with the fingers of love
You can’t lose babe
When you watch me play, does it feel bad, darlin’
When they choose me?
Say again, this place
Say again, this place

I broke my neck
Dancing to the edge of the world, babe
My mouth is wet, don’t you forget it
Don’t you lose me
Here is your princess
And here is your horizon
Here is your princess
And here is your horizon

I’ve gotta scratch it down, I never could amount
That’s it, babe
And now the sugar’s run out
And i don’t know what to say
Say again, this place
Say again, this place
Here is your princess
And here is your horizon
Here is your princess
And here is your horizon

And every now and then, I think about
When you’ll die, babe
There’s a fall in my head
It floods what you said into the room, babe
I don’t belong in the desert
Yes, I can see it, take me home, babe
Say again, this place
Say again, this place
Here is your princess
And here is your horizon
Here is your princess
And here is your horizon

Here is your princess
And here is your horizon
Here is your princess
And here is your horizon
