AUTUMN TEARS In the morning when I walk along And it's been raining all night It seems the streets are wet with all the tears that I've cried When I walk along through autumn leaves That must have fallen last night It seems the leaves are all the tears that I cried at night If he doesn't come back soon The streets will never be dry If he doesn't come back - the road-sweeper Will never clear away my tears And I know I just won't sleep tonight I'll watch the rain and hear the wind Blowing all my tears down to the street ......... IF IN WINTER If in winter, he should change and leave me I'd let him go and learn to do without him Oh, I'd have a hundred lovers And my heart would not be broken And all the lies he's spoken I'd whisper to the others Oh, it's winter now and he has changed and left me I let him go and now I am without him I don't want a hundred lovers And my heart it is so broken And all that lies he's spoken I whisper to myself ............ HOW DO I KNOW How do I know that those mountains aren't cardboard? How do I know that the world is round? Why should I know? Just because you've told me There's molten rock underneath my ground How do I know there's a God in the sky Looking down and hearing me? Why should you say, I can't love any man Have his children and still be free? Go on voting, striking and fighting Go on searching, hiding and laughing I can't change you, I can't even try But let me live like I think I can Then when it's time for me to say goodbye I'll have lived just a part of man Go on voting, striking and fighting Go on searching, hiding and laughing I can't change you, I can't even try But let me live like I think I can Then when it's time for me to simply die I'll have lived just a part of man ................ I KNOW Don't tell me you're going away I know And don't say what you're going to say I know Don't expect me to cry Don't even say goodbye And don't say life's like that you know I know And don't tell me I'm just a kid I know And how you loved the things we did I know Don't say that it's a shame And that life's just a game Just pack your case And turn your face And go For I am not the same when you're not with me Take away the bank and I will flow And don't tell me that flowers must die I know And that the cup runs dry sometimes I know But I have drunk my fill And quite fulfilled my will And now there's nothing left to spill Or show Oh darling I am not the same without you You just light the fuse and I will blow All you have to do my love Is go
If you could live stream Vashti Bunyan’s music through speakers that cover the earth 🌏...there would be world peace - thank you LadySonia for posting everything!
her voice makes me fly to the world i dont even know. into the unknown and throwback to the beautiful memories i never had. like i miss somethin, but i dunno what is that. kinda feel full and empty at the same time
Vashti's voice has a haunting quality. She takes you into another realm, simple, safe and gentle.
Her voice makes me want to look after her and make things better for her ,silly I know but that's just me ..lol..
AUTUMN TEARS
In the morning when I walk along
And it's been raining all night
It seems the streets are wet with all the tears that I've cried
When I walk along through autumn leaves
That must have fallen last night
It seems the leaves are all the tears that I cried at night
If he doesn't come back soon
The streets will never be dry
If he doesn't come back - the road-sweeper
Will never clear away my tears
And I know I just won't sleep tonight
I'll watch the rain and hear the wind
Blowing all my tears down to the street
.........
IF IN WINTER
If in winter, he should change and leave me
I'd let him go and learn to do without him
Oh, I'd have a hundred lovers
And my heart would not be broken
And all the lies he's spoken
I'd whisper to the others
Oh, it's winter now and he has changed and left me
I let him go and now I am without him
I don't want a hundred lovers
And my heart it is so broken
And all that lies he's spoken
I whisper to myself
............
HOW DO I KNOW
How do I know that those mountains aren't cardboard?
How do I know that the world is round?
Why should I know? Just because you've told me
There's molten rock underneath my ground
How do I know there's a God in the sky
Looking down and hearing me?
Why should you say, I can't love any man
Have his children and still be free?
Go on voting, striking and fighting
Go on searching, hiding and laughing
I can't change you, I can't even try
But let me live like I think I can
Then when it's time for me to say goodbye
I'll have lived just a part of man
Go on voting, striking and fighting
Go on searching, hiding and laughing
I can't change you, I can't even try
But let me live like I think I can
Then when it's time for me to simply die
I'll have lived just a part of man
................
I KNOW
Don't tell me you're going away
I know
And don't say what you're going to say
I know
Don't expect me to cry
Don't even say goodbye
And don't say life's like that you know
I know
And don't tell me I'm just a kid
I know
And how you loved the things we did
I know
Don't say that it's a shame
And that life's just a game
Just pack your case
And turn your face
And go
For I am not the same when you're not with me
Take away the bank and I will flow
And don't tell me that flowers must die
I know
And that the cup runs dry sometimes
I know
But I have drunk my fill
And quite fulfilled my will
And now there's nothing left to spill
Or show
Oh darling I am not the same without you
You just light the fuse and I will blow
All you have to do my love
Is go
Her voice is pure and gentle. Her lyrics are poetry. I love her music!
Her voice is otherworldly
I needed your voice tonight as my husband died today
A late response, but so sorry for your loss. Hope you're doing OK two years later.
Rip to your husband, darling
Her voice is like warm honey on a summer's day. so moving.
If you could live stream Vashti Bunyan’s music through speakers that cover the earth 🌏...there would be world peace - thank you LadySonia for posting everything!
Going through a difficult breakup right now and this calms me down. Hope I'll get over it soon.
Good luck
Me too.
Hope you're ok now
her voice makes me fly to the world i dont even know. into the unknown and throwback to the beautiful memories i never had. like i miss somethin, but i dunno what is that. kinda feel full and empty at the same time
I have said it before if the world would all start listening to Vashti’s music there would be no more wars. Thx LS great song! 👍🙏
I always want to start my day with a hot plate of cake, now I also have this song on display.❤
Love her voice .. her sensibility ..i've been touched in each chord ♥
Lovely and beautiful and gentle
Whew the lyrics to “If In Winter” are so sad and devastating, yet beautiful and moving
This is beautiful
I love her so much.
I suppose she's speaking to no one and people are attracted to hearing and feeling loneliness. Ha! Gorgeous...
Really poetic
Shivers, shivers, shivers... I'm melting.
♥
A whispering song 😊😊😊
Vashti Bunyans music is featured in the beautiful movie 'Fremont' by director Babak Jalali
Autumn Tears - 0:00
If in Winter - 1:55
How Do I Know - 3:12
I know - 5:08
Especially I relate and love "How do I know"
MagicalSunrise1984 i love all of her songs and also her bbc collection.
What does "I'll have lived just a part of man" mean? I'm not an English native speaker.
Vashti Bunyan is a type of people I would love to have a long long deep conversation with
Απλή,αισθαντική,θερμή φωνή.Wonderful!!

Incredible.

Sólo paz....

@zzausel - oh... thanks :-) Greetings
Ella está en un nivel musical diferente

I can see why she collaborated with Animal Collective:)))
This is new bfor 2010 people...cool
this video feels like it's 20 minutes long wow
she looks so good and reminds me of TheVelvetUnderground
She has a sweet vulnerable quality that I don't see in TheVelvetUnderground.
Wrong title. It's not "Autumn Leaves" but "Autumn Tears".
@roftykoir huh?
Anyone know where i can buy this album? i love it
Hey can you help me i'm looking for this kind of música, i'm looking for a song that has a white album and a tree in the center heeelp
Her voice sound like cotton
I can't she's awesome and they're horrible lol
professormacdeezy what's horrible?
