Send me a letter by mail 
Write a new page in our history 
Hold tight and wait for me there 
'Til I can reach you 

I know the distance seems far 
But I'm building an airplane to fly to you 
When I do 
This will be nothing 

Someday one day 
We can start over again 
Someday someday 
Biding our time until then 

Someday one day 
We'll have a chance to begin 
We'll be all right 
Someday when 

Holding your face in my hands 
Watching your smile in my camera 
Counting the moments til then 
Wait for me there 

Someday the sound of your voice 
The look in your eyes when you reach for me 
When you do 
I will be done for 

Someday one day 
We can start over again 
Someday someday 
Biding our time until then
 
Someday one day 
We'll have a chance to begin 
We'll be all right 
Someday when

You’ve got that song that you’re strumming 
I’ve got this heart like a drum and 
Doesn’t it seem like they were made to play in time? 

You’ve got that smile that you’re hiding 
And I’ve got this patience abiding 
Cause I’m willing to wait for all of this to fall in line 

Well everything seems to be possible right about now 
Feels like something's gonna happen between us but 
I couldn’t say how 

All I know is that you are so pretty 
I sat down and wrote you this ditty 
And everything seems to be possible right about now 

You’ve got those boots made for walking 
So far you're still sitting here talking 
Doesn't seem like you're planning to hit the road 

I've been thinking but haven't yet told you 
I just wanna stay here and hold you 
Don't think that should come as any surprise 

Cause everything seems to be possible right about now 
Feel like something's gonna happen between us 
But I couldn’t say how 

All I know is you are so handsome 
I’m gonna do my best to land some 
And everything seems to be possible right about now 

We've got plenty of time until morning 
Only fair I give you a warning 
I'm intending to keep you up til dawn 

I don't know what the next day brings 
Never been good predicting those things 
But everything seems to be possible right about now 

Right about now
Right about now
Yeah everything seems to be possible 
Right about now

Roll Another Dollar (Rasch/Steely)

Well she rolled in like the weather 
Well she came down like the rain 
Don’t know where from but she landed in this city 
Like the cat had dragged her in 

And she looked better dirty 
Than anyone raised clean 
Sitting on the broken steps of the cathedral 
Where an angel should’ve been 

Roll another dollar, take another train 
Put down roots then break the ground 
And pull them up again 

Pour another whiskey, raise it to the sky 
Then toss it back and hit the town 
Like practicing to fly 

Well she had eyes like steel shooters 
Well she had hair of emerald green 
She had every city sidewalk at her mercy 
In underneath a week 

She asked me for a light outside the barroom 
But she was made of kerosene 
So I just breathed her in until I went all dizzy 
And woke up on the street 

Roll another dollar, take another train 
Build a life then light a match 
And burn it down again 

Roll another barrel with a single bead of lead 
One in six just take the risk 
And put it to your head 

Well I don’t know where she went to when she left me 
But I know she went there quick 
And I’m sure I'm just another piece of past she has no patience for 
Even then she never did 

Roll another dollar, take another train 
Choose a mark and break a heart 
Then do it all again 

Pour another whiskey, raise it to the sky 
Then toss it back and hit the road 
Without a last goodbye

Your love’s a cigarette 
Burning at the tip 
It tastes like smoke and fire 
Sliding through my lips 

And everything seems better 
But this feeling that I get 
It doesn’t mean I’m living 
It just means it hasn’t killed me yet 

I breathe you in and hold it 
Trying not to choke 
I know it isn’t good for me 
But I take another toke 

And everything seems better 
But this feeling that I get 
It doesn’t mean I’m living 
It just means it hasn’t killed me yet 

And you mark me 
With these shadows on my teeth 
Yeah you mark me 
But you give me sweet relief 

Yeah you mark me 
With these stains under my nails 
Every time I put you down 
I know I’m gonna fail 

Your love is nicotine 
Seeping through my skin 
Someday I’m gonna quit you 
But I couldn’t tell you when 

​And everything seems better 
But this feeling that I get 
It doesn’t mean I’m living 
It just means it hasn’t killed me yet

Hey there you, it’s been a long time 
Hey there you, it’s been a long time 

Are you still wearing those clothes? 
Thinking that nobody knows? 
But me 
Hey there you, I haven’t forgotten 

You on the jukebox playing in my head 
You in the slideshow playing in my bed 
You round the corner of my next turn of thoughts 
Hey there you, it’s been a long time 

Hey there you, it’s been a minute 
Do you have all that you want? Did you win it? 
Or are you still dreaming of me 
And all that you wanted to be? 

Hey there you, it’s been a long time 

Hey there you, I want to know it 
If I left visible scars can you show it? 
Cause you left without leaving a trace 
Like I only imagined your face 

Hey there you, why do you haunt me? 

You on the jukebox playing in my head 
You in the slideshow playing in my bed 
You round the corner of my next turn of thoughts 
Hey there you it’s been a long time

Crawling over the Grapevine 
Just as the sun was rising 
Chasing water up the siphon next to me 

Central Valley in my rearview 
The devil down and heaven above 
And you, somewhere there in LA 

And I don't know if you changed your number 
I don't know if you changed your name 
I don't know if he makes you happy 
But I know you're in this city just the same 

I got two tons of truck coming over this hill 
I'm driving on coffee and force of will 
With this dust on my jeans from a week of living free 

One night stand in my rearview
Tasted a little like love
Said she didn't like girls but somehow she liked me 

And I don’t know if you changed your number 
No I don’t know if you changed your name 
And I don’t know if he makes you happy 
But I know you’re in this city just the same 

Running down my last gallon of gas 
Everybody's waking up along the Tejon Pass 
Light coating everything in Technicolor sheen 

Double yellow line in my rearview 
Snaking back to where I’ve been 
And you somewhere there in LA 

You somewhere there in LA

Grapevine

Girls, heartache, road noise...  Combining Meehan Rasch's evocative, arrow-to-the-heart lyrics and Lauren Steely's dusty, driving arrangements, Angeles County is a slice of queer Americana and rootsy alt rock torn between the pull of the big city and the seduction of the road.
