about

We met this gorgeous man in a pub in Melbourne when we went to see some friends playing music. I instantly fell in love with James and his amazing story. This song wrote itself that evening on our way back to our hotel.

lyrics

Worries in Your Pocket

You keep your worries in your pocket
On a list worn smooth with time
You talk to me about Jesus
As we wait in line
You are hoping for heaven
And you’re looking for a sign
You hold your finger to the wind
But it’s not time

Hey hey hey!
You are a gentleman James
And I’m falling for you
Though we only just met
Hey, hey, hey
You wear your heart on your sleeve
And we only just met
But I am falling for you

You keep your worries in your pocket
On a list that grows with time
You get up early each morning
And go to bed by nine
You have two beers on a Friday
And you take a taxi home
Where you talk to Jesus
On your telephone

Hey hey hey!
You are a gentleman James
And I’m falling for you
Though we only just met
Hey, hey, hey
You wear your heart on your sleeve
And we only just met
But I am falling for you


And you shake hands with very stranger
And tell them that your name is James
And you say don’t worry about me
I sure hope god has a plan
For this gentle man…


You keep your worries in your pocket
Check them all a thousand times
And while you’re telling your story
I drink a little wine
You have sisters who love you
And they are married to god
You’ve been worrying so long
Oh you break my heart

Hey hey hey!
You are a gentleman James
And I’m falling for you
Though we only just met
Hey, hey, hey
You wear your heart on your sleeve
And we only just met
But I am falling for you
