Sun Soaked Daydream

You're cordially invited to my sun soaked daydream this afternoon
I'll watch you kick a hole in the early moon
Sweet friend, there's not one thing that you could do
To stop my brain from buzzing over you
I thought about the flowers I brought
And divvied up on your family plot
This spring in your hometown
Store-bought daisies of violet and gold
Laid out on the headstones cold
Shoulda saved a few
And made you a crown

Sure As Hell

It's no secret
I'm a softie
Strange tender thoughts of you
They follow me
Can't help but wonder
What it's like to be your honey
The way you grin lights something up in me
The last thing my brain sees before I go to sleep
So go on and flash that goldmine of a smile
One time for me
Just poppin' in to say
I've been feeling bizarre
Magic's not real
But you sure as hell are
Yeah you are
The Magnetic Fields said "I don't want to get over you"
And it's true, most everything that you say and do
Is the best shit I've heard
Or seen or had the pleasure of going through
How lucky am I
To have come this far
To be here with you
A white hot burning star
Magic's not real but I know enough about stars
To know that stars are

I think about that time you held me tight in the parking lot
I went woozy in the head
You almost left, but you put more change in the meter
And came home with me instead
Every time I catch you laughing
I think it adds a year or two onto my life
At this rate I might live forever
So I think I need you to stick around
And be my friend for a while

Handshake Anxiety
03:01

Remember October
That time at your place
When you dropped our dinner on the kitchen floor
You changed your shirt while I cleaned up the mess
I think on some plane I'd been there before
You said handshakes give you anxiety
So give me your hand
I'll hold it still as can be
I know life's a lot
If you want you can hide with me
I can be soft
Or whatever you need
So many nights spent fuckin' around
Downtown, at the bar, or at our friends' house
We sing karaoke and share cigarettes
Thanks for letting me crash on the big couch
I know you said handshakes give you anxiety
So give me your hand
I'll hold it still as can be
I know life's a lot
If you want you can hide with me
I can be soft
Or whatever you need
I know you said handshakes give you anxiety
So give me your hand
I'll hold it still as can be
I know life's a lot
If you want come get high with me
I can be soft
Or whatever you need
I've gotta let you know
You're a glowing goddamn vision
Can I tangle up with you?
Will you let me?

I'd had it bad for you
Six months before you kissed me in a dream
You could say I'm a realist
I think we were at my dad's house by the train tracks
Or maybe on a bus
Either way
The windows rattled behind our backs
Two months, to the day, before the dream
You said maybe if I give you time
Said it's what you need
Well I'm not going anywhere
Got nowhere else to be
The morning after the dream
I woke up, brewed coffee
I drew a bath
I sipped and soaked
Then pulled the plug
I sat there, growing heavy as the tub drained
You sat heavy on my brain

Saccharine
02:31
|
|||
|
I heard you thought I was over you
As if these feelings could ever fade
This dizzying saccharine brine of affection
I marinate every day
How do I explain what you mean to me
Without compelling you to leave?
You don't owe me anything
But your incandescence kills me
It kills me

Slow Burn
04:34
|
|||
|
You've been uneasy
What is it you need?
Hearts that hold out
Words that mislead
Maybe I'm a fool
For dreaming up what we could be
Yeah, I'm a tall drink
But you're the whole sea
Waiting on you to bring some good news
Gets lonely sometimes
Oh, but what can I do
I take great caution
Sometimes I feel so dumb
Wish I could send this slow burn
Back to where it came from
Alone in my apartment
Everywhere that I look
Space where you could belong
Share a snack, read a book
It's silly of me
But is it really?
Catching vibes left and right
Can you blame me, I just want to see
Waiting on you to bring some good news
Gets lonely sometimes
Oh, but what can I do
Fast forward to us
My mind's not so blue
Do you feel this slow burn
The way that I do?
You remind me of August
Heat's hovered too long
I'm maintaining I'm over it
But I'll freeze once it's gone
So I'll do what I can
To make a comfortable room
For us two to exist in
Where something might bloom
Waiting on you to bring some good news
Gets lonely sometimes
But what can I do
I'm not in a hurry
So why should I worry?
This slow burn keeps growing
The thing's never slowing
But it's a wildfire I'll contain
As long as I need to
I don't know what I'm doing
I don't know what I'm doing
Wish I knew what I was doing
Wish I knew what I was doing
But I don't know what I'm doing
No I don't know what I'm doing
I don't know what I'm doing
I don't know what I'm doing
Tell me what I should be doing
What am I doing
What am I doing

Hard Candy
04:02
|

|
I told you this feeling would never fade
But it did
But only cause it had to
And only enough for me to be okay
And hey, hey, I promise I am
I'm okay
I'm okay
It's easy to marvel at all the love in you
The way it spills over the edge of you
And why shouldn't you save it
For the one you choose
And hey, hey, I promise I am
I'm okay
I'm okay
I'm sorry for when I cant help it
But tilt toward affection
Sorry I can't help but get a little down
When the clouds obscure your spot on the mountain
But hey, hey, I promise I am
I'm okay
I'm okay
Okay
Okay
Okay okay okay
So please, kid, I hope you won't mind
While I hold this sweet, sweet feeling you give
Close to me
Under my tongue
Til it melts away
Like hard candy
