about

'Oh These Days' is Alice Boyd's second single. The song marks the spring equinox and the return of longer days in the Northern Hemisphere. Featuring lilting harmonies, a folk-inspired instrumental and field recordings collected across the UK, this song reminds us that sunny days are returning and bringing an abundance of life.

'Oh These Days' was originally created for a film by Ffern, a Somerset-based natural perfume maker.

lyrics

Lyrics:

The silent secret of it all
The sunlight cradles the morn
And through the loam, a longing kiss
As stem and petal start to lift

Oh these days

Wren and blackbird start your song
And branches be alone no more
Narcissus raise your sunny head
Feel the warmth and leave your bed

Oh these days
Oh these days

Oh these days
Oh these days

When the sun beats down on Albion
Where the sweet spring fragrance plays
Oh those days are returning
Please stay
Please stay for a while

Oh these days
