about

Third in an occasional series of Covid-19-era songs to raise money for the Anstruther foodbank. Partly recorded in the East Neuk of Fife, partly in Vienna by our old friend & collaborator Simon Lee (of Drive Moya - check them out as they're awesome).

lyrics

driving through a hangover and pines
i thought of you as i do sometimes
it all came true, the floodings and the tumults
but you were right about the clearings too

you once lied i could live on that coastline
for that i love you still

oh, your lips, they graced some summers
but your teeth, well, they haunt the others
and i was late, and wasted when i came
the cars were parked and you had already waded out

you once lied i could live on that coastline
for that i love you still
i took the pills and when they turned me evil you said
'I forgive you, but I don't think you ever will'

leaving all those houses far behind
i let the frost touch all my lifelines
it all came true, the floodings and the tumults
but you were right about the clearings too
