thinking back when we were lovers
and all the fun we made
looking at a wilted flower
learning now that nothing stays
we will have an indian summer
we will live our lives that way
we will make it last forever
we will never fade away
sometimes we get caught up in the thoughts within our head
we weren't bad to one another except for when we were awake
If you think it's any different now you're probably just playing one more game
sometimes we wait, let it drag on way too late
taking trips down to get hitched when we should just be getting laid
and i know it's way too soon to sit here thinking on these things like history
huddled up 3rd avenue just waiting out the dark
you're getting sympathy from strangers while I'm f'cked up in the park
and the only thing that's running through my mind is how do I just end it all
december comes too soon we won't be skating through the storm
we'll just keep crashing into icebergs like the captain always warned
we'll just be fastening our seat belts while the cast and crew are jumping overboard.
feel the love run
leave it open
wish for back then
see what that did
thinking back when we were lovers
and all the fun we made
looking at a wilted flower
learning now that nothing stays
we will have an indian summer
we will live our lives that way
we will make it last forever
we will never fade away
thinking back thinking back
thinking back thinking back
A nostalgic record full of ambling rhythms, vivid imagery, and cotton-soft melodies tapped out on an ever-present ’70s synth-organ hybrid. Bandcamp Album of the Day Nov 11, 2021
Lush & lovely compositions from this duo that blend dreamy electronics with floating melodies in songs that drift between pop & ambient. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 27, 2021
