Watercress Thieves are currently a songwriting partnership made up of Malcolm Shipp & James Levan both from the South West of England. We have played together for many years and started writing semi-seriously in 2005, had to take a break whilst I lived overseas but now as of December 2007 we are working on a heap of new songs and planning to put together a full on Folk band in the new year 2008. So if you are into folk and play an acoustic instrument then do get in touch, multi instrumentalists with vocal abilities are the most welcome!

Story behind the song
I wrote it for my girlfriend who was 5000 miles away in India whilst I was on a scaffolding in Gloucester Docks in UK
Lyrics
BECAUSE OF YOU (For Jen) Shipp/Levan Did you ever wonder why When things go wrong I laugh when I should cry And if I lose my hair Oh cest la vie I really don’t care You let me live my dreams Do you know how much that means Its easy cos its all because of you Na na na na na na na Na na na na na na na Its easy cos its all because of you All the plans I ever made I dont have to rearrange Your friends are cool and your folks they like me And you know that makes a change Keep doing what you do And believe it that its true Its easy cos its all because of you Its because of you oo oo Its because of you oo oo Its because of you oo oo Its because of you Harmonica Break I could be all sorry babe That i met you quite so late It doesn’t matter where we been It was always worth the wait The limit aint the sky And you’re the reason why Its easy cos its all because of you Its because of you oo oo Its because of you oo oo Its because of you oo oo Its because of you oo oo Repeat to fade!
