Ellis Paul

Ellis Paul (born Paul Plissey; January 14, 1965) is an American singer-songwriter and folk musician. Born in Aroostook County, Maine, Paul is a key figure in what has become known as the Boston school of songwriting, a literate, provocative and urbanely romantic folk-pop style that helped ignite the folk revival of the 1990s. His pop music songs have appeared in movies and on television, bridging the gap between the modern folk sound and the populist traditions of Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger. more »

Wake up Mother I think he's coming home 
I guess he grew tired of living on his own 
And here I sit bewildered, wondering if I've grown 
Staring out the window and waiting on the phone 

You see I believed in alibis, broken glass and lullabies
Born was I in the 70's 
Born to catch the sun
But I'm burned alive in memories 
To ashes and dust I run, I run

Wake up mother I think he's coming home
I guess he grew tired of living on his own
And here I sit bewildered, staring through the pane
The glass it is still shattered, and everything remains unchanged

You see I believed in alibis, broken glass and lullabies
Born was I in the 70's 
Born to catch the sun
But I'm burned alive in memories 
To ashes and dust I run, I run
