lyrics

on the far away roads of an isolated island, in the northern part of the land that only sees light at dawn, before it turns to dusk, facing the wind, the warm wind of the shores that comes from out there, nowhere indeed, I am standing on my cold feet, protected by tape, construction tape that sticks to the boots  

I will walk with you  
or whoever you were  

counting the reefs I'll find my way back to the red fishing house that the poet bought back when the whole town was working for the mine, before it all went down in the flames and the fire  

I will walk with you  
if you bring me there  

and if I reach the room where we once slept, while the seals were dancing underneath our feet, if I reach that room once, emptied by the Flemings, cleaned up and ready, on call for departure  

will I walk with you  
to the cabin bed?  

if it still exists, if it ever was, as weird as we found it, as warm as a dreamer's bed?

One of the most beautiful collections of songs I've ever heard, the same feeling I got when I first heard Elliot Smith's self titled. Every single song close to perfection. LukeSpurs
