about

"I woke up one morning with a distinct feeling that someone close to me was passing over. I could feel their energy was moving into the next realm. It was like a kind of premonition- and so the song came to life.

"..I felt you slip away, gentle as a breeze in May, gentle as a breeze in May.."

The song's are quite stripped back and have an 'other-world' quality. I wanted the vocals to feel like I was whispering in your ear, like your inner voice or a faint prayer. They are about death, addiction and the metaphysical, except the song I've Cried All The Tears (I'm Cryin' For You), which feels like a ballad Patsy Cline would have sang..."
Jayne Trimble (OXLIP)

A Kind Of Premonition is a 4 song EP written and produced by OXLIP, and was released 07/09/2021 on Champagne Breakfast.

lyrics

I’ve Cried All The Tears (I’m Cryin’ For You)

by OXLIP



I’ve cried all the tears

I’m cryin for you

I’m leaving behind

All the loving I do



Got to get back the truth

Some peace of mind

Gotta let go of you

And remember what’s mine



I’ve cried and I’ve cried

I’ve cried over you

But I’m not gonna cry

No more over you



And the worst of it all

Is believing the lies

Time after Time

Going out of my mind



I’ve cried and I’ve cried

I’ve cried over you

But I’m not gonna cry

No more over you



Little birds need to fly

And the bee’s ask them “Why?”

I’ve packed my bags

I’m saying Goodbye



I’ve cried and I’ve cried

I’ve cried over you

But I’m not gonna cry

No more over you
