If I were a dog you’d be my favourite bone
I’d keep you in my bed and not leave you alone
I’d chew you inside out and make a meal of you
I’d never get enough – never get enough
And if I were a tree you’d be the earth below
I’d send my roots in deep and suck up all you know
And every fruit that fell would be a gift to you
And that would be enough – that’d be enough
You feel like home
A welcome fire in the snow
A sacred song
Whose secret words I somehow know
For every time I think of you
(And you alone)
It feels like home
You feel like home
If I were a fool I’d be a fool for you
If I could make you laugh then that’s what I would do
I’d fold you in my arms and hold you ’til you smile
For you have cried enough – you’ve cried enough
You feel like home
A somewhere in the afterglow
A place of sleep
Where I will always long to go
And when I dream I’ll dream of you
(And you alone)
You feel like home
You feel like home

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

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
