LYRICS:
woke up with your hair in my face 
bright morning light streaming like a cascade
you’re half asleep while you trace your fingers around my thigh

hannah, do you think we could stay a few more minutes?
hannah, i think you forgot to shut the blinds

(CHORUS)
if i'd convinced you to stay in the city
would we have had a chance?
new apartment south of seattle
we could pretend we know how to slow dance
around the boxes underneath the quiet glow of broken lampshades
and you look to me, and to the street
shake your head
take my hand, hannah 

hannah you’d take me to the backyard behind the japanese maple tree
use your left hand to pull me closer
right hand on my cheek
in the city, we’d sit on the fire escape 
cheap wine, legs off the edge 
your hand is resting on my knee
hardened eyes, you’re always on the fence
you’re always on the fence 

CHORUS

bridge
so hannah took me to san francisco 
where she showed me pacific heights 
“bet you couldn’t race me across the street”, she said, blinking through the flashing lights
i wrote a letter under a different name,
it got lost in the mail
now every word sounds the same
and every day just feels stale

if id convinced you to stay in the city
do you think you’d just resent
the new apartment south of seattle
while we pretend we know how to slow dance
around the boxes underneath the quiet glow of broken lampshades
and you look to me and to the street
shake your head
take my hand, hannah

quarantine cover time ~ we did a remote cover of ‘retrograde’ by maggie rogers from opposite sides of the country. scary times out there but we hope you are all doing alright. we are both around if you ever wanna hang out remotely, we’re pretty good at it at this point. zoom party? let’s do it. i (stacy) have been rewatching a lot of bojack horseman and havent stopped thinking about this quote that i will leave u all with - ‘in this terrifying world all we have are the connections that we make.’ be well. ❤️
