    My time alone during the first lockdown gave me a chance to really think about why I write and perform in the first place. I took this opportunity to step back and think about how to present my songs in the purest way possible without access to big studios or even the rest of the band. That’s where the concept for this acoustic EP came from. All of the songs feature one guitar and one vocal; the way they were written. This limited edition of the EP now features my award winning song "Love Like This" as a bonus track.

lyrics

Love shines a light
It keeps us warm
It wins the fight
It hold us up
When heavy hands surround us

Love builds a flame
The kind that burns
And can’t be tamed
It brings us tears
Unveils our fears
About it all.

Cause the dice might roll and the house might beat you
But if we both stand tall maybe I’ll complete you
Cause there’s light out there
And I might be scared
But it’s all i wanna do
So I’ll love you
And I’ll be loved by you too

Love is carries pain
But they all say
“No pain no gain”
And when water walls
From mountains tall
It always lands

Cause the dice might roll and the house might beat you
But if we both stand tall maybe I’ll complete you
Cause there’s light out there
And I might be scared
But it’s all i wanna do
So I’ll love you
And I’ll be loved by you too

When we’re together
You know I always feel your heart beating
When we’re together
You know the world stops spinning
When you’re beside me
You know I feel ten stories tall
So I’ll love you
And I’ll be loved by you too

Cause the dice might roll and the house might beat you
But if we both stand tall maybe I’ll complete you
Cause there’s light out there
And I might be scared
But it’s all i wanna do
So I’ll love you
And I’ll be loved by you too
