lyrics

Dormitory halls made her world feel meek and small and alone
Union bookstore where she made it feel more like a church years ago

There’s a longing in the air, Dickinson, Plath, and Flaubert
Her perfume lingers there
Though she’s heard it all before, I wonder if she'll listen anymore

And I know, I’m not strong enough to tell her
In my soul, I know she deserves much better
Leave my heart in every letter

There’s a girl who sits and reads with her long brown hair blowing in the breeze
She lives inside my dreams seems to tower over me at five foot three

There’s a longing in my heart, Emerson, Kant, and Descartes
No, I never saw true art
Though she’s heard it all by now, I hope it don’t offend her anyhow

And I know, I’m not strong enough to tell her
In my soul, I know she deserves much better
Leave my heart in every letter

There’s a garden in the sun, where her poetry grows free
becomes tangled in the violet and green
And I know I’ll never see from the cold fortified steel
these gates remain locked perpetually

And I know, I’m not strong enough to tell her
In my soul, I know she deserves much better
Leave my heart in every letter

about

Spring Rain Port Orchard, Washington

I want to be the bar of chocolate melting in the pocket on a bright summer day. Let me be wild, let me run free.
