about

The ghost of a lost love continues their journey from Doggerland, under the sand of The Wash on the East coast, ever Westward and further and further away, as lost loves do. I miss you, and ponder the whispers of walking into the sea? We still grow wild strawberries.

lyrics

As you walked along the lime, I had a dream of you
And of wild strawberries , the softest mist, the summer dew
And on the pebble bed, just where the redwing flew
I saw our future pass, with the last breath I drew

I took the path of moss and yew, drenched in its leafy cloak
The morning fire in our pursuit Shining through the spirit oak
And as the dream took hold, then came the honeyed view
That kiss as I depart with no need yet to bid adieu

When night time swarms around hear her footsteps cross the ground
The raging of the dawn, trees welcome to mourn
It’s here that we lay, branches unforesaken
Blossom now does fall, we heed the call, unchastened
This night we’re blind, we’re blind, we’re blind

As we reached the source, We took mid-winters clothes
This book had run its course How no-one could recall
How chaste the golden hour suspended in the core
A whisper past the lips absented natures call

See the lost season turn, I know who comes for me
And what I leave behind hidden ‘tween the roots of trees
My memories they are not mine, wild strawberries , elderflower wine
Placed just for the passing time, handed down to another life

When night time swarms around hear her footsteps ‘cross the ground
The raging of the dawn, trees welcome to mourn
Bodies unbound, the field greets the plough, for the season
You hid the crown, span silk for the gown of our making
This night we’re blind, we’re blind, we’re blind.

Angeline Morrison and The Ambassadors of Sorrow

"Bewitching and otherworldly... Morrison's voice is eerily confiding, strangely present, insistent even at its quietest" Folk Radio UK.

Believing in the beauty of sad songs, weaving folk, soul and beat sounds of the '60s into a tapestry of the human heart. Homespun sounds that reside in a nostalgic universe.

"Dark, unsettling folk that verges on the hymnal" BBC Introducing.
