  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    A concise collection of poignant short stories in song form, narratives brought perfectly to life through a creative partnership with Simon Edwards (Fairground Attraction, Billy Bragg, David Gray). The album contains ten four-minute tales from the school of Anne Tyler and Raymond Carver, delivered with a grit and warmth that puts Jones firmly in the Bonnie Raitt and Joan Osborne class of tough but soulful exponents of North American roots music.

lyrics

Missed You

I live alone with my shame
In the comfort that nobody knows my name
You came out of nowhere with nothing but trouble
In a suitcase too big for my faith
And I didn't want you

You took your burdens for blame
Beyond any folly you could have made
I tried to ignore you, get on with my pain
I was not in the market for grace
Not for a way through

And I missed you in the moment when I dropped my eye, wallowing
I missed you in the moment I was blinking in the sun
I missed you for a moment but God knows he's taking time over this

What kind of portion remains
For widows and orphans and humble things?
I dare not come near you or touch what you love
In the fear of the weight in my veins
No one to warn you that I'm no good for you

"Quite apart from that this album is extraordinary on its own merits there are few artists willing to expose their talents to such a sparse instrumental background, and you need to listen to it and discover its beauty for yourself."
