Out from under the nightmarish pulse of the Pandemic this sweet and sinister vibe roots in "nostalgia" and wistful reflections of a personal sexual awakening, and having no idea on what to do with it.. " The night will pass, then we have work to do, everything has to do with loving and not loving."
- Rumi
That sums it up for us now. Be safe, be well, be compassionate, be creative, be patient. Much Luv!
lyrics
Film Making with Your Eyes Closed
You didn’t say it with your eyes
You didn’t say it with your mouth
You didn’t say it at all
On the teenage basement couch -
I just sat there and I stared
I got hot and I got scared
No signs of me anywhere,
Sinking into you I said I understood
But I didn’t, I didn’t,
I said I know what comes next
But I didn’t
Funny little Stardust
You like a planet
You alive
(I made it all up)
You didn’t say it with your eyes
You didn’t say it with your mouth,
You didn’t say it at all
On the teenage basement couch -
I just sat there and I stared
(you alive, you alive, you alive)
I got hot and I got scared
No signs of me anywhere,
Sinking into you I said I understood
But I didn’t, I didn’t
I said I know what comes next
But I didn’t, but I didn’t
(turn)
I never said I loved you, right out loud
I never said I loved you, right out loud
Crave, crave, crave…
Yeah, we live up there in the canyon
And we swim in pink champagne
And we wear big fur coats in the summer time
& we drag the main
We smoke all that flower
With the unmistakable scent
Of regained power!
