In Gratitude (Radio Edit) Because it was the last gift you gave me I hold it in my heart Because it was the last thing To pass between us, I keep it near Because you are far away I seek it out, everyday To feel close to you Because you are older Just a little older than me I let myself, I let myself feel young Because we are friends I just smile Because we are friends I say I say nothing at all I say, I say nothing at all Because you’re kind I bow my head, I bow my head In gratitude In gratitude In gratitude Thank you for the belief for the relief For keeping me strong for so long (Thank you for the belief for the relief) In gratitude

about

The stirring In Gratitude was inspired by writings Williamson found in a folder intriguingly titled Into The Mountain, capturing moments from a yearlong tour she undertook with Dead Can Dance in 2012/13. These, a mix of poetry, music, and journal, were then developed on an acoustic piano across ten separate nights and form the forthcoming new record of-the-same-name.
As Williamson expands “My intention was to stay as close as possible to these initial sparks of inspiration rather than relying on already well-worn paths of development that I might have found more familiar or comfortable.”
First single In Gratitude is described by Williamson as “part letter to a lost, or perhaps hoped for lover, part diary from the life of a touring artist.” The song’s rich alt-folk soundscapes and the vivid emotional intelligence of both Williamson’s lyrics and emotional delivery offer an intensity befitting of the song’s themes of gratitude, desire, loss, reflection, and acceptance. It makes for a compelling and powerful listen and is indicative of the Into The Mountain record as a whole, which moves from the darkly confessional to the joyously beautiful to reflect Williamson’s own life experiences.
