Year Without a Summer
03:41
|
|||
it's the year without a summer
a summer that never was in 1816
and we could endure all the consequences
and maybe live in a church by the sea
cause even if all the businesses and crops failed
we'd be ok cause
you are a strange and bizarre phenomenon
you are a strange and bizarre phenomenon
and we could suck the frost off
the most tender parts
and run around with rosy cheeks and mouths
so sore from kissing in the cold
but she says she loves the big city
but i'm born from a man from an island, off an island
you are a strange and bizarre phenomenon
you are a strange and bizarre phenomenon
you are a strange and bizarre phenomenon
you are a strange and bizarre phenomenon

Sad, Etc

when the wind blows fierce and cold and
the polar bears are feared and
am i caught up in my fantasies in this far off sea,
where i wanna be
when the wind blows fierce and cold and
my heart beats fast in my room
when flowers wilt and fade away
i've missed you so much today
i just dress in black since i've been back &
say hello to every cat
in the neighborhood where we used to live
on the first floor, i'm imagining
we have beds of all different types of moss
to lye in when we think of all that we've lost
we have beds of all different types of moss
to lye in when we think of all that we've lost
and if things change, nothing stays the same,
i would live for you anyways
star of my sky, with the brightest eyes, a true love in my small life
i just dress in black since i've been back &
say hello to every cat
in the neighborhood where we used to live
on the first floor, imagining that
you are here when i need you the most
tell it to the tuckamores or whoever's close
i walk around the barrens and feel so much remorse
tell it to the tuckamores or whoever's close

Everything You've Missed
03:52
|
|||
how about tonight?
i reply, with my eyes
i wanna stay with you all through the night
yeah, that's what you say now, she replies with those eyes
on me tonight
but when there's so many nights in between us
disappointingly i dream of my jealousies
but when we can't kiss and kiss
there's so much of everything that i've missed
and when you're the only one i miss
there's so much of everything you've missed
and when we can't kiss and kiss
there's so much of everything you've missed

Kiss and Cry
03:02
|
|||
you're a mystery so much it seems
the most mysterious of my dreams
and on roadsides we float on by
on tears from our eyes
when we kiss and cry
it's like heaven's smile
cause i've loved you all the while from here to there
and sigh when it's time to go cause we love each other so

Voices
03:00
|
|||
would it be in my best interest
to maybe forget everything that
i want now
like you somehow
and is it found in the prayers
that we whisper so unaware
when nights are full of despair
spoken from voices walking in air
or is it god coming through the radio?

Next To Me
03:29
|
|||
winters didn't so long back then
when i was a child way back when
the darkness didn't seem to bother me
like it does now, unfortunately
a family man kneeling in his jeans
for a picture of a winter's scene
who could never admit to being cold
cause he's a tough soul
winters didn't so long back then
when i was a child way back when
the darkness didn't seem to bother me
like it does now, unfortunately
a family man kneeling in his jeans
on the snowy ground next to me
who never admits to being cold
still to know and he's gotten old
so cold, so old
so before winter reappears and i leave town before it's here
i'll cast a spell on to my fears in hopes that you'll still be here

Peaceful Moon
03:25
|
|||
oh sun,
look what we found
when we were in a field kissing,
didn't expect it running
but what a sin how we have drove away
cause i could have stayed there all night and day,
and looking at pictures from that day
when the sky fell into our hands
and chased the van
but what a sin
how could we have drove away
cause she would have come home with me
or is that robbery
such a close approach
how could we have drove away
cause she would have come home with me
or is that robbery

An Image of Her
02:43
|
|||
there's an image of her i can't forget
but it moves like the tide back and fourth
and disappears like ghost ships do
and would i only be able to find you
on the telephone
i dunno
who knows
oh no oh no
who knows
i dunno

Swimming Circles
04:19
|
|||
thank you cause i can rely on you
like rings of dolphins swimming circles around me
lets watch land and sea
will you watch land and sea
with me
so before i hug myself to sleep and need your
true light and company
with me, near me
because i just count time by how often fog horns sound
instead of adding all the weeks and months
as i'm so weak in my knees
as summer also can't love you easily

Sacred Sight
02:44
|
|||
myself under huge and rural clear dark skies
full of white stars that i recognize
so well like your eyes that i've memorized
and when we sit face-to-face i'm hypnotized
and i've seen stars brighter than the fullest of moons
that magically light up this town when i need you around
and spell out your initials in the sky by my house
a point of reference that shows how far i'd go, for you
it's in the power of waiting by the sea
so patiently, do i have it inside of me
waiting to see your face to be
ready for me
cause you are a sacred sight reappearing
