and so am I
your lips say nothing
I ask why you feel that way
when I feel something you can't stand to understand
if I could look into those eyes
I'd tell you what I mean
and why this day is looking like the last one
just trust me if you can
my hands are tied
my hands are tied
ahhhhhhh x2
passions matched once, not again
let's kindle nothing more,
let's!
burn slowly like a cigarette
with a buzz as long
forgotten by my own advice
da da da da da da da da
a feeling of defeat - prevades
the soul I cannot find
I think awhile ago this was a song dedicated to Rachel (Rachael?) Culp. I don't really know anymore... The first time Martin played this song for me I was in love. (With him.)(And the song.) It really goes back to the almost quirky alt country flavor that drew me in to Martin's songwriting. There are also some great harmonies on this one; the first time I heard them I got chills.

wow. I REALLY like this song. I feel like we owe rachel an apology, because it was supposed to be her birthday song. but it's a little too sad for that, don't you think? anways. this song has a really rad alt-country vibe, and the lyrics are crazy-good. I will always remember the one beer buzz.
