This was probably the third song we ever wrote, but we didn't put it in the split with The Destroyed Room because we didn't felt like it belonged with the other songs... Whatever.
lyrics
You were so excited
On that Monday night,
While we drove past Lake Erie
Looking for some sort of light.
Just sixteen
And nowhere to go,
But those plans for new stories...
Well, they just found us.
And under that starry night we made wishes,
Deer ambled along the road near spruces.
We wait all the winter
For the summer to come,
So we can take any road
No matter where we're really headed.
And under that starry night we made wishes,
Deer ambled along the road near spruces.
No, we didn't think about it much...
Not that we do now as we pack our things.
Introspective, homespun folk tunes from John Donne that feel informed by the sugary bleakness of '80s and '90s indie pop. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 1, 2023
