Autumn's Envy
02:27
|
|||
The way you held me every time we said goodbye
Well you can hardly blame a guy
Certain windows will close if you waste time
You looked at me and we both leaned forward
You went soft and you closed your eyes
Never had I imagined such a smile
That said “you win”, Pulled me in
Or was it only summer trying to assert its heated will
Or a heart tired of denying, lying
Too full to be still
I’ve seen you with and without your glasses
I’ve heard you cry and I’ve made you laugh
But I’d never seen you look like that
Thought it was on
Was I wrong
Or was it only autum’s envy after having slept a year
With no chance of a beginning,
Spinning listlessly its gears
As the daylight drew to a grey and auburn hue
Took a long look at you
Like a tempest came the truth
Was it too soon
Or was it only summer trying to assert its heated will
Or a heart tired of denying, lying
Too full to be still
Was it only autum’s envy after having slept a year
With no chance of a beginning,
Spinning listlessly its gears

September Fools

September Fools
I can’t judge my notion, I’m too full of cupid’s potion
Can’t believe I left myself open, at the mercy of my hoping
I think about you all the time I feel my heart crossing the line
And all I want to do is make you smile
You’re showing up in all my dreams
There’s no use interpreting
Subconsciously I hear the sandman sing
Chorus:
This is not a choice September Fools
We’re servants to the harvest moon
This is not a choice Septmber Fools
Venus moves into our view
Sorry if I seem somber, can’t hold it in any longer
The facts will feed on me, ‘til I set my secret free
But when I look into your eyes, my limbs go limp my tongue is tied
I summon all the nerve that I posses
Then the truth comes slowly slipping
Like a gentle exorcism
Like a burden lifted from my chest
Chorus

The Bass Player

It’s alright if you fall in love with the
bass player with the boots and the bob hair cut
Ask the sound man to tun her up
And get lost in the low end
its ok to pretend
Fender precision running through and ampeg
Watch her hands as they move up and down the neck,
The sunburst body compliments
Her sweater and that’s not an accident
I bet she’s sweeter than the stripes on a pepper mint
Oooooooooo I find myself swaying
to the lines that she’s playing
Allow my mind to slip and slide
As she plays her part in perfect time
Ooooooh will she notice me
I’m a face in the crowd literally
It isn’t hard to think she’ll see
Lost in sound and make believe
Ooooooooh and when she’s free
Behind the merch table, buttons and t’s
It’s ok to pay ten bucks
To meet her face to face just once
To meet her face to face just once

Ms. Gregory

Stocking Feet
A paper sign
The crooning Caliphone
On 45
Innocence
White pickett fence
Mrs. Gregory I feel strange
Please work your ways again
I’m lost inside the ruse
If I’m anything I’m confused
I don’t understand the rules
If I’m anything I’m a fool
Stolen sweets
Long losing streaks
We nailed the hen house door
And tried to sleep
The blizzard hit
I wandered out in it
I saw the panther’s prints
Snow killed the evidence
I’m lost inside the ruse
If I’m anything I’m confused
I don’t understand the rules
If I’m anything I’m a fool

Humming Your Questions
04:43
|

Humming your questions, dancing your answers
Oh feather of pheasant, melanistic panther
You look like a garden, you’re harboring faeries
The secrets of Isis, the daredevil Aries
Chorus:
All behold your kaleidoscope mother
And I told your trembling father
We saw a falling tree, we didn’t hear a thing
I’ll call you anything, except for make believe
Out in the open, high on a Sunday
Chasing a tomten, abandon the highway
You sing like a bower, you lived through the fable
Escaped from the tower, born in a stable
Chorus
Sweet are the sparks from the friction unfolding
Twinkling tracers blue green and golden
Daze as in dazzle, nod as in slumber
Can we make peace with the spell that we’re under
