Melodica

from The Pause by Pursesnatchers

/

about

The last song I wrote for the record, in late-May, in the midst of an early-Beatles deep dive. For Annie.

lyrics

I know what you want me to say
Don’t know why it’s hard for me to explain
I’ll be plain

It takes work to make a thing last
And outrun all of the ghosts of our past
It goes fast

Words are such slippery things
I try to tell the truth
Maybe it’s just better to sing
That I’m inspired by you

Do the crossword together in bed
You read the clues I’ll hold the pen
I need you when I’m blue

I should be more tender with you
And I will I swear
I remember the night that we met
Your smile — bright as lens flare

Words are such slippery things
I’m gonna tell the truth
I’m still so happy to sing
That I’m inspired by you
