Bach in Town 03:29
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

Player 02:51
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

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 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

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
