Wide World

from Wide World EP by Sophie Janna

  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    The artwork for this album was made by me! It's a linocut inspired by the snow in March 2021, and a couple of swans I saw near my house around that time. Designer Joost Abbel turned the artwork into this design; he chose not to put any text on the front, and reversed the image for the inside of the case. There is no booklet with this album, but I did do my best on the packaging! I send them out in cardboard envelopes (and often reused ones), I avoid using plastic where I can.

lyrics

I was awake / and you were asleep
I was drowning in worries / a spinning wheel
I turn away from you / 'cause I want to hide
The morning I fear / so I keep it inside

Won't you stay here / call this your home
The world is too wide / to travel alone

Songbirds are singing / to welcome the morning
I see nothing but darkness / that I want to fade in
I don't dare to tell you / in the light of the day
My silly old dreams / they'll scare you away

Won't you stay here / call this your home
The world is too wide / to travel alone

And then you wake up / and reach out your arm
Pull me towards you / and make me feel warm
There's no need for talking / it'll fall into place
And gently your thumb wipes away / the tears from my face

Won't you stay here / call this your home
The world is too wide / to travel alone
Won't you stay here / call this your home
The world is too wide / to travel alone
The world is too wide / to travel alone
