lyrics

I never wanted any more than any man who came before
Yeah, life was good and fine and time was empty
Until a letter by mistake one day, from a shiny town not far away
Came signed with love and lipstick and perfume

It said, ‘I know the lonesome glow of country moons
And slow-rising suns that make our dreaming longer’
It said, ‘I never see the stars and all the wishing in my heart
Has gone away except the one for you, my love…’

I always liked my company and in loneliness felt truly free
Of other people’s gazes in the mirror
Until a story came into my head of another life I could have led
That put a chase for change inside my heart

I left behind the lonesome glow of country moons
And slow-rising suns that make our dreaming longer
And now I never see the stars and all the wishing in my heart
Has gone away except the one for you, my love…

Big-city lights and starless nights
And the shadow of another love
Big-city lights and starless nights
Led me there and led me on

I love it. This band specializes in rhythm and melody, and their secret weapon is gospel choir vocal harmonies that back most of the songs. This album is a tad more straightforward than their other two LPs, and all three are fantastic. Pop, folk, alternative, gospel- what a concoct Lute FP
