about

PALE SUN: Co-written with Heather Fitton about her experience of the powerful feelings and sometimes tumultuous adjustments that follow as young adults leave home. The song was written at 7a.m. after a dawn chorus walk in early May through Lee Woods, Derbyshire

lyrics

PALE SUN by Carol Fieldhouse and Heather Fitton

Float away, to who knows
You know, but you don’t show me

Gap’s yawning, our two worlds
You’re in your Southern Ocean
I’m here, all emotion,
home in motion

Pale sun in the early morning,
A chiffchaff sings
Quiet nest in the steadfast oak tree
Brood on the wing

Unseen falls the falcon
My heart its prey
Your lodestar shimmers for you
Mine still veiled

You come and go, that’s ok
I’m walking my own path again
Still so much we might say,
but not today

Pale sun in the early morning
A chiffchaff sings
Quiet nest in the steadfast oak tree
Brood on the wing
Pale sun, pale sun,
Brood on the wing
