lyrics
When you are scare that you are passing
Through the design of our mouse hole life
For a fire that burns up the summer
A patchwork of trees and meteor nights
It's not true
I need you
Though I am able and I am hungry
For the parade of runaway vans
Careless the song I sing for you sometimes
The salt that I hold in my dumb hands
It's not true
I need you
Inside I hold the evening shared with you
On the couch watching a movie
Outside the blizzard hums a tune
We know but cannot place
Like a puzzle can amaze
Or the smile on your loving face
Nothing else really matters
Love is the ground on which I'm camping
I don't own the land but it's fine for the night
And when I am short on breath and climbing
I'll follow the prints you left in the snow
And faith is a word I don't use often
Not for the clouds whatever they mean
And not for the place where I reap my profits
The salt that I hold in my dumb hands
What else can I say besides I love you?
What else can I say besides I need you?
Nico's songs burrow their way into your heart and take up residence, redecorating with lots of tchotchkes, pacing around and reciting Dickinson poems while sipping whiskey 'til your heartbeat starts swinging in 3/4. I couldn't possibly be more biased, but I feel certain that even if I didn't love this boy I'd find this album to be an utterly wrenching masterpiece. Benedict Kupstas
Honest & uninhibited, Ben's guitar and voice move effortlessly and unreservedly from sweet to insistent to ecstatic. No posturing, no pretense. His heart is wide-open here -- as in youth. jobo3208
