Bach in Town

I see you’re back in town
You’ve been on my mind so much lately
Thought it could very well be
Someone else would turn around
But then I saw your face
Holy mother of grace
I quit this place
And from the confines of my car
I learned that I could drive considerably far
To avoid surprises
Silence suffices
Even though I’ve wondered these days
About how it would go
And what we would say
Something in me advises
To leave you to your own devices
Though I don’t know
If I’ll see you again
I’ll never ask
I’ll never ask you
You’ll never say
You’ll never have to
I had drafted something sweet
From the memories of jokes we’d tell
Places we’d meet
Took the draft out on walks
Try it out
Show it around
Show it off
And from the corner of my mind
Came a distant thought
I felt it climb up to my attention
Steer my intentions
And for many weeks in a row
I thought I should reach out, say
“I want you to know I’m not mad
I want to be friendly
If you’re around
Would you please tell me
‘Cause I would love to see you again”
I’ll never ask
I’ll never ask you
You’ll never say
You’ll never have to

You
Turning days into an endless afternoon
While I signal you
Come now, I don’t want to know
All that you control
There’s something you could do
You won’t lower to
Saying sorry
You don’t do humble
No, you, you get along without
Down would be to show
You’re sorry
It’s too low
Oh, being humble
You get along without
You
Spinning ‘round from forever afternoons
Night time might show
You won’t lower to
Saying sorry
You don’t do humble
No, you, you get along without
Down would be to show
You’re sorry
It’s too low
Oh, being humble
You get along without
Paying no mind
Fading away from us to see who’s playing
When I’m not

Cruel
03:18
|

I don’t ever want to be cruel to you
I’m not making up any new rules
Hey love
What’s up?
Heard of you giving up
I don’t ever want to be cruel to you
I’m not making up any new rules
I can never hide the mess in my eyes
Dilating into the rest
Fantasize
I don’t want regrets any
Parts of me tempted to feel
What this idea of us could be
If I stutter your name
Because each syllable is profane -
What are these things you do to me
Promise
My love is honest
Clear, sure
Simple, pure
I don’t ever want to be cruel to you
I’m not making up any new rules

Rememember Me

Did I
Embellish the truth
‘Til it came out a lie
To deserve your time
Told you nobody’s stories
They sure as hell weren’t mine
Nobody’s stories
They sure as hell weren’t mine
Anymore
Little things you’d forgive, I’m sure
Do you think of me?
How do, how do you think of me?
Ran into your friend
Thought I’d steer the small talk
So that we might end up
Mentioning you
How you might even have said
Something that alludes to
Remembering me
Do you think of me?
How do, how do you think of me?

Pour Your Heart Out
03:10
|

Pour your heart out
Lips to my cup
On an easy evening
For you last drought
Sip on my luck
Baby, you are coming clean
Dark pink on the inside
Orange is the melting color of the
Parked dreams that we could ride
You have got your own
Burning bright through your eyes
Things holding you back
Comfort you, pressing down warmly
Feminine sap flows through the walls
You get up to leave
Dark is the night and you can still see
Milk and honey, sweeter
I forgot to doubt my body
Limbs are light in water
Waxing moon pulling up the sea
Soft in water, we can still breathe
I have heard it
Ringing clear through the messy evenings
And want to preserve it
Brimming here, your softness
Seeping through
Everything I give back to you
Milk and honey, sweeter
I forgot to doubt my body
Limbs are light in water
Waxing moon pulling up the sea
Soft in water, we can still breathe
Quench your thirst for safety
When you come to need it badly
I know how to ‘cause you taught me
Cupped my hands and you were the stream
Night turned warm
And fear into steam

Melody I Heard
02:56
|
|||
I thought the air here remembered be
Wrapped all around
Like something I could sleep in
Meaning fell from every word
And then dissolved
With a melody I’d heard
And as I slept, smaller worlds sang
Their signals not for me
But I could understand
I thought the air here remembered be
Wrapped all around
Like something I could breathe
I heard the earth
She talked to me
And said it’d be over
Unless I fall asleep
