two raccoons and a big dead deer
what we saw on the long drive here
lots of men in harley gear
you lit a cig, i reached to steer
we stopped for gas and lots of beer
took a walk when the sky got clear
you held me close and i felt no fear
i almost cried when we saw the deer.
i was afraid of what i had said
when i said i loved you bad
but you replied, "i love you too"
just took you a while to do
i'll be here whenever you need
we can always let it bleed
and i'll come by when you want me to.
that's what i'm here to do.

the air, the air, the air-
i wish you could've been there.
i wish i took a picture.
my face against the earth,
and life keeps getting harder, but my head keeps feeling lighter.
oh, my baby,
why don't you come see me?
i'll be right here, waiting.
i think i've won the day
by cleaning out my ashtray
and folding all my laundry.
the simple things we see,
and i wish i was still clean.
i think you know what i mean,
i think you understand me.
it's a feeling i can't really explain.
maybe in the morning.

Phone Call

the world is full of things that don't belong to me,
and i wanna keep that phone call in a cigar box full of crushed flowers.
i want to hold the dirt in between our fingers but it's not ours.
the world is full of things that won't ever sit still,
and i wish i knew that back when i was five and i sprained my ankle.
i wish i knew that back when i went deaf 'cuz i had a fever.
i woke up in your car after it wouldn't start
and we watched the triple a guy take his cables and jump the engine.
i signed my name and he said, "thank god you're pretty cuz i can't read that."
the world is full of blame and other useless things,
but we had our fun, i know i probably wrote you a hundred letters.
just wish i had that phone call, i really think it would make things easier.

god bless the sun and the flowers,
i would bike for hours.
god bless my friends and my sister,
oh, how i miss her.
i'm makin' mindless love to someone i'm afraid of.
i'd give it up to find somebody new.
i need the sun to beat down on me,
so i won't feel lonely.
i need the birds at my window
to pick me up and then let go.
i know that you can't sleep, been thinkin' of me lately.
would you give it up to find somebody new?
sometimes it hurts to be thoughtful.
i can't really let go.
and i can't decide if it's awful
to think of my own ego.
i think i've had enough, it's me that i'm afraid of.
i'll lay outside and wait for somebody new.

Forever ain't easy to come by
For always ain't never to sure
For certain is less than you hoped for
For someone it's hard to endure
Foresaken must sometimes befall us
For sorrow sometimes will call
Four seasons go around on a pinwheel
And tomorrow ain't nothin' at all
The first time that I came by lovin'
Forever was all on my mind
And I never got used to the hurting
Or the searchin' for some love in kind
And it seems like I'm still chasing rainbows
It seems like I'm still on the run
Forever don't mean much in passing
Forgotten don't mean that it's done
Forever, for always, for certain'
For someone forsaken for sure
For any old plan you got workin'
For any old pain you can cure

Corner

why can't men admit they're nervous
or scared or full of shame
cuz then it all just comes out like anger
and i think i'm the one to blame
i saw you at the corner
holding a heavy load
i was with a new companion
but i wanted to help you home
i'll stop by our place this weekend
some day when you're not around
take my shit and leave the keys there
now you're nowhere to be found

My son Anders loves this band and wanted their CD for his 17th birthday, love you little man. This one's for you buddy! Side note, not gonna lie this is really good. Wasn't my cup of tea but for my children I'll open my mind to something new and it just happens I wound up enjoying Moveys a lot.

Introspective, homespun folk tunes from John Donne that feel informed by the sugary bleakness of '80s and '90s indie pop.
