The song, "Madly" is from the album, "These Good Days Last" by Aware of the Bear. (available on iTunes and Bandcamp)

Madly Lyrics:

When you asked me that question 
The one I couldn’t get to 
Well the truth is that I may just be passing through 
The pause that dropped 
Like a leaf in the fall 
Was a tangle of words 
Vines growing on the wall 

In my mind 
I withdrew 
I went to the edge of the forest to think
and I wondered, am I madly in love with you? 

In the forest I called 
My voice swallowed up by the leaves 
You came some way 
But just to the edge of the trees 
The path too dark 
though many walk through this way 
You weren’t ready to follow 
although you had something to say 

So you stopped 
and you called 
Though I was near, I was always too far 
And you wondered, am I madly in love with you? 

I watched you from afar 
And then I saw it all 
When the woods came alive 
With you close by 
And I knew, I’m madly in love with you 

Now I’ll ask you that question 
The one I couldn't get to 
What’s your truth? 
I know you’re not passing through 
Well, you may pause now 
and you have your roots in the ground 
Did you say those words? 
Was that the distant sound? 

I don’t mind, I always knew 
When I went to the edge of the forest to dream 
Now I know, I’m madly in love with you

"Aware of the Bear writes pop gems with melodies reminiscent of Wilco and Big Star - with maybe a little Badly Drawn Boy thrown in for good measure. The horn section driven Unified Theory is a great example of his retro-leaning production skills, intelligent lyrics, and vocal style."

"I saw a sign that said, 'Beware of the Bear'. There's the problem. There's the whole hang up that stops me from writing, stops people from singing, stops people from living - BEWARE OF THE BEAR - What did that used to mean? It used to mean be 'aware' of the bear. Now it means be scared of it." 
(Ken Kesey)
