Fleet Foxes "My Only Son" (Duncan Browne) @ La Cigale (Paris)

Yeah, he made me discover Duncan Browne, Judee Sill and Dungen. All these have become my favorite artists! =)

To Lulahbelle

Thank you very much. Your answer really touched my heart for I could understand all the words of this beautiful song.

Peace from São Paulo - Brazil

I think these are actually the lyrics
My Only Son
There's another world behind the sun
It used to shine on everyone
And lately I'm amazed at the way it's grown
It moves in at midnight
When I'm all alone
A million miles across the starland
It keeps on shining on everyone
He says you may have lost your holy mother but I have lost my only son
So much is misdirected before it can start
But someone left moonlight in my heart
Never surrender to the modern man
He sells you iron(?) if he can

A million miles across the stars loud
And it keeps on shining in everyone he says
You may have lost your holy mother
But I have lost my only son.

There's another world behind the sun
It used to shine on everyone
And lately I'm amazed at the way it's grown
It moves me at midnight when I'm all alone
A million miles across the starland
It keeps on shining on everyone
He says you may have lost your holy mother but I have lost my only son.
My Only Son
My Only Son

A million miles across the stars loud
And it keeps on shining in everyone he says
You may have lost your holy mother
But I have lost my only son.

So much is mister acting before it can start
But someone there moves me light in my heart
Never surrender to the mother and lie (?)
It sells you high if he can

Theres another world behind the sun
It used to shine in a merry one (?)
And lately Im amazed that the way its growing
It moves me in the midnight when I was all alone

Listening to Duncan's version I could write down the lyrics below. I speak Englis as a second language. So it's difficult many times to catch all the words.
Corrections and completions are welcome.

I keep coming back to this video. I've probably attributed at least 25 views by myself. This is the best copy of this song I've been able to find.

Such a goosebump-inducing melody.

Thanks for watching!
