lyrics

FAITH HOPE AND CHARITY
Words & Music : Iain Whitmore ©2021 Aurora Music

I think it’s time to see the light of day
It’s hard to tell who tells the truth anyway
The saviour came to us and now he’s gone
Moving on

And the dream is coming true
And there’s nothing left to do
But move – and we do

We all could see what it was coming to
The spark was dead – we had to find someone new
You learn to live the life and sing the song
Carry on

And the song is sounding sweet
And the kids are on their feet
To move – and they do

It seems we have to sign our souls away
So we got nothin’ left to lose anyway
I wonder where’s the money comin’ from?
Soon be gone

And the song is sounding sweet
And the kids are on their feet
And the dream is coming true
And there’s nothing left to do
But move – and we do

Bloody Noses EP
by Richard Thompson

supported by 14 fans who also own “Faith Hope And Charity”

John Drumbo French from Captain Beefheart and The Magic Band worked with Thompson on two albums along with Fred Frith and Henry Kaiser. Those two French, Frith, Kaiser and Thompson albums led me to this. Also, Richard Thompson taught Hugh Cornwell (of The Stranglers) how to play the bass guitar in a band when they were both at the same school (Emil and The Detectives?). With a career spanning 50 years and playing with two of my heroes (French and Cornwell) Thompson has produced a fascinating EP. yellowcakeuf6

Serpent's Tears
by Richard Thompson

supported by 11 fans who also own “Faith Hope And Charity”

There's a similarity in song writing between Richard Thompson and Hugh Cornwell which maybe isn't surprising as they went to the same school at the same time, although Thompson is older. Due to Thompson's association with John French of Captain Beefheart & The Magic Band I searched for his work on the Bandcamp app. French, Thompson and Cornwell all have albums on the app which I'm very pleased about. Only Thompson has released contemporary albums, much to his credit. yellowcakeuf6
