lyrics

We left when the day was still young. A journey to fix the harm done. Each step dragged us closer to find the peace we had longed for some time. Out here, the road we tread is worn. Our hands are tied, each step we make forlorn. The fragile roof, our fragile roof came tumbling down, came tumbling down. I lost you there, I lost you there on the stormy ground, the stormy ground. Now what trouble lies here? Beneath the dark gaze of milky moon. In these shattered arms I'll hold you dear. The daylight can't come too soon. Now your palms, they begin to reveal the forecast of dangers more real. Each look draws us closer to find the peace we had longed for some time. Out here the road we tread is worn. Our hands are tied, each step we make forlorn. The wolves creep in, the wolves creep in and circle near, circle near. No struggle left, no spirit left, they circle near, circle near. Now what trouble lies here? Beneath the dark gaze of milky moon. In these shattered arms I'll hold you dear. The daylight can't come too soon.

about

Captives On The Carousel Sheffield, UK

Captives on the Carousel are Sarah Morrey and Ben Eckersley.

They play folk originals on cello and guitar, telling stories of enchantment and dark goings on...

Sarah's poetic lyrics combined with Ben's haunting strings draw you into a world of mystery and magic.

"A more charming duo purveying mysterious, spine-tingly pop you're unlikely to find this side of Narnia."
