First Times 03:22
lyrics
buy track
You told me for the first time, that I'm right I hope this is the first time that I'm wrong I don't even know if I should try But I'll give anything not to be alone When two are meant to be one now everything is undone Are all our choices made? Is there too much space between us? Like Jupiter and Venus Or can our souls be saved? I remember the first time that we laughed You dipped your head down and held up your glass At that time if we would've known Would you have taken me, in to your home When two are meant to be one now everything is undone Are all our choices made? Is there too much space between us? Like Jupiter and Venus Or can our souls be saved? And I thought I told you When I got to know you Will you still fall for me this time I remember the first time that we touched And the first time I felt love and the last time we let go and I do anything, not to be alone

Lost 03:13

I, I caught the wrong train I got on the wrong plane And I, I don't know where I am Or how I’ll get home I, I've turned the wrong way, down this one way street again I'm walking down this road and it hasn’t got a name And I hope I’ll see you face real soon I, I've hitched a bad ride I, I got on the wrong tide And I, I'm drifting out of town But this ship won’t go down I need to fight this feeling And I need to think where I’ve been I hope I see your face real soon When I don't know which way to go When I don't know who I can trust and I I know … I can call you up When I don't know which way to go When I don't know who I can trust and I I know I can call you up But I haven’t got a ... phone And I hope I’ll see you face real soon

Hold Your Pain 04:02
lyrics

I remember those days The hold of your hand has never changed We’d get lost, but always find a way With you by my side, I'll never fade If I could hold your pain Then I could take it away You can’t do this on your own I’ll pick you up, when you fall I hope my words, they never fail You can hear them in your mind each day If I could hold your pain Then I could take it away If I could hold your pain - then I could show you where it is Then I could take it away If I could hold your pain - then I could show you where it is Then I could take it away

My Unseen 04:24
lyrics

I'm in a room, I'm closed in I'm here alone, I'm falling I hear your voice outside the walls I'm on my knees, I'm crawling I'm feeling where the doors is There is no light, no windows I didn't choose to be here I can feel the ceiling Creeping down over me I need your help, to reach in To search your soul, your feelings Search your palm and find the key My Unseen I take your hand and follow You pull me through the doorway It hurts my eyes for me to see I feel the air, I'm breathing I stand up straight, I'm feeling You had control, over me This is what you see of me My Unseen This is what you see of me My Unseen This is what you see of me My Unseen I said This is what you see of me My Unseen This is what you see of me

Those Beach Days 03:27
lyrics

Wading out in the ocean Feeling every wave The water it keeps getting deeper Harder and harder to brave But the time I've spent Working so hard Means that I can find My wave I've tried so hard for so long now Missing wave after wave after wave (But) there's always another set coming I've got feeling that this is my day And the time I've spent Working so hard Means that I can find My wave I will be okay when I'm up on my wave Up on my wave Dropped on the beach by the wave now Laying out flat on the grains Do I call it a day and go home now Or head back out again And the time I've spent Working so hard Will mean that I can find The wave I will be okay when I'm up on my wave I'm up on my wave I will be okay when I'm up on my wave I'm up on my wave

When I sleep, And I wake And I find, All the things that I've Left behind me, In my wake And I‘ll hide, All the secrets that Unite me, In my mind And I’ll try, To keep them there Inside me, So I can Know myself, 'cause I’m locked away This is for that feeling This is for the ones you hold inside This is for the moment And the times that I’ve tried This is for that feeling This is for the ones you've left behind This is for the moment And the times that I’ve cried When I change, Am I’m free All I feel, Is at my feet And I know, That you know But that’s ok, Cause I’ll share with you And all that time, that you knew I’d open I’ve shared my soul, I’ve shared my hope And who I am This is for that feeling This is for the ones you hold inside This is for the moment And the times that I’ve tried This is for that feeling This is for the ones you've left behind This is for the moment And the times that I’ve cried

Breathe Together 03:54

I lay here by your side Thinking of the times When you could hold me in your arms And say what's on your mind But you can't hear what I say any more But I can hear your words just like before And I'm holding out my arms To find out where you are I hope you that you are near forever I can feel you in the dark Reaching out my heart I know that we can Breathe Together And I know that we can Breathe Together I remember the days When we were young The colours of your hair and the songs we sung To have those memories In my mind Means I can keep you in my heart For all time And I'm holding out my arms To find out where you are I hope you that you are near forever I can feel you in the dark Reaching out my heart I know that we can Breathe Together And I know that we can Breathe Together And I'm holding out my arms To find out where you are I hope you that you are near forever I can feel you in the air I can feel you everywhere and I know that we can Breathe Together And I know that we can Breathe Together And I know that we can Breathe Together again

The Drive 04:05

I never knew you But I know that's it's true I never told you That you failed to be you And I never knew that you weren't there But I never knew that I'd be here I want to show you How I've grown beyond you But it's your mistakes That I've made in to A life that sees you here no more And a life I've built up from the floor But you gave me the drive And you gave me the guide And you gave me the rhythm inside And you gave me the drive You know I really have to go You know I really need to go You know I really want to go To have the time of my life But you gave me the drive And you gave me the guide And you gave me the rhythm inside And you gave me the drive The time of my life

Pass to Me 03:13
lyrics
buy track
I entered this game, thinking I could play I didn't know, that these rules could change This ball is a heavy, a heavy weight And I carry it with me everyday And I'm running, running away You say, I can take it, take this weight off of you You've just got to pass it Hold the line and stay true Cause they're coming, coming for you You can pass, you can pass to me You know that I'm open Cause you're on my team And I feel my legs burning as I run to break free Don't hold on, to this burden alone Because when they hit you, There's only one way to go You don't move forward when you're out on your own You said pass, you can pass to me You know that I'm open When you're on my team ... I said I said you can pass, you can pass to me, I feel my legs burning As I run to break free But you've got to let go, and trust in me But you've got to let go, and trust in me

James Straits image

James Straits England, UK

I'm an unsigned artist from Dorset, UK.
I had a break from music for about 8 years until I started again last year.
Whilst I wasn't playing music life had taught me some lessons and provided me with plenty of ideas for new songs, in August 2019 I decided to play the piano and start writing again.
So I'm a singer/songwriter who also records and produces my own work. ... more
