lyrics

Gold candelabra, pictures in the magazine
I was drawing myself at your piano
Your black and white photograph
You spin me ‘round dancing
pretending that your footsteps were mine
We sat at the mirror; we dress up enchanted
And all of the colours come at once

I’m only remembering now, and something’s happening now

Something stirs while the watchman sleeps
Flooding things that were buried deep
And they tell me it’s all for the best
And they tell me it’s time to rest

I watch the winter
I gather its memories, but I cannot count the steps between us
I picture you dancing some place I’ve never been
I see the details in my mind

I’m only remembering now, and something’s happening now

Something stirs while the watchman sleeps
Flooding things that were buried deep
And they tell me it’s all for the best
And they tell me it’s time to rest

Something stirs while the watchman sleeps
Flooding things that were buried deep
And they tell me it’s all for the best
And they tell me it’s time to rest

Mostly I write songs about our shared emotions, fears, and hiding places. Sometimes, just about rabbits. I hope you enjoy listening to the music as much as I enjoy creating it. If you find a piece of your story in here, sing it with me.
