lyrics

Real love
Doesn’t touch or set alight
Real love
Doesn’t come it’s already behind

To brush your hair
Sitting above you
Like an angel telling you straight
Me on a chair
You on the floor
As I look you right in the face

And I see my own eyes
Greyed out of hue
See my false beach sunset due
The rocks and the sea
The warm on my feet
Like the salt airs just for me

Real Love
Doesn’t touch doesn’t spindle and fold
Real Love
Is anger beyond, love knocks you out cold

Walking uphill
Nettles and flowers
Up to my knees and red on my shins
Under the current
Breathe in the hours
As your hands they lift up my chin

And I see my own eyes
Greyed out of hue
See my false beach sunset due
The rocks and the sea
The warm on my feet
Like the salt airs just for me

Tomorrow’s Fire

I knew nothing about Squirrel Flower going into this. I loved the album front to back as it reminds me of so much music that I enjoy. Her beautiful voice is an awesome contrast to the fuzz of the guitars. It was tough to choose a favorite song. BobandoCommando

New Long Leg

The great underlying instrumentation paired with Florence's droll stream of consciousness lyrics make this album stand out. It feels so personal and confessional. Favorite tracks are Strong Feelings and Leafy. I've heard Scratchard Lanyard on alt radio and love that one as well. tofupotpie
