Artist picture
Singer-songwriter, arranger and producer: acoustic contemporary folk but ranging into rock/blues/country/jazz/humour...all very eclectic, I'm afraid!
Martin Stirrup Singer/songwriter An old folkie who got back into it... These days I sing and play guitar(s) and other stringed instruments, then score and orchestrate where appropriate. My taste becomes increasingly eclectic ranging from finger-picked folk through country to soft rock mixed in with a few more alternative and eccentric numbers, including the odd novelty foxtrot...

Story behind the song
One of the first songs I wrote at Cambridge nice open chords for Ralph Simpson to play flute over, which went down well at the Red Cow.
Lyrics
Sunny morning with the hazy sky above Lazy sleeping in the morphia of love The drifting air patchwork of blue Forms a memory of you Slowly sliding clouds go smiling on their way Past the rustling trees not knowing what to say They are far away I know it’s true But not as far as me to you All the flowers that have faded look to me Falling with the leaves down from the trees Back to the earth from which they grew So my thoughts return to you All the people pass me by and star At me lying gazing in the air They are amazed and troubled too They don’t know that I love you All the noisy traffic passes by As I stand here thumb aimed at the sky I know they have their work to do But they can take me back to you
