lyrics

you hiked down the great Grand Canyon
you had shaky legs but you’re voice was steady
a voice on the phone didn’t want to hear yours
your hair smelled of chlorine and linen
the tans on the tops of your feet said summer
you couldn’t remember your dreams in the morning
the found new ways to love old friends
you sent nice cards to your parents
your brother moved out

Seduced by gap tooth no socks at a continental breakfast on the way to New Mexico.
Always so restless always so homesick where you don’t know where the towels are kept.

you learnt you were allergic to citrus
your favourite voice to hear got deeper
your favourite voice to hear for quieter and then stopped speaking
you fell back in love with blueberries
you slept with too many pillows
you drove yourself to work and you liked being alone in the car
you cried in the shower when your heart hurt
you cried in the shower when your heart didn’t hurt
you cried in the shower because you love everything so much (!)

Seduced by gap tooth no socks at a continental breakfast on the way to New Mexico.
Always so restless always so homesick where you don’t know where the towels are kept.

you held a small breathing machine in your arms
the dip of your nose fit in the back of its head
You found a cheekbone filled with an orion’s belt of sunspots.
