I Can Hear the Heart Beating as One

Sonic Youth - I Love You Golden Blue (Live At The Orange Peel)

Kaleidoscope (Ringo Deathstarr)

lush :: desire lines :: slowed + reverb

I covered one of my favorite songs ever for part of a Starflyer 59 covers project.  So that's fun.  

Ben Ricketts - "Fell In Love At 22 (Starflyer 59 Cover)"

A warm, mid‑tempo heartland rock song about two young lovers in a small town who believe their present will last forever. The lyrics follow their late‑night rituals, hopeful plans, and the bittersweet realization that time and change eventually pull them apart. Nostalgic and conversational, the song balances intimate storytelling with a singalong chorus that remembers youthful certainty while accepting life’s steady forward motion.

Lyrics

Intro  
[Spoken, intimate, half‑sung:] “Main Street, summer night — where everything felt like forever.”  
Vocal hum follows the spoken line, sliding into the first melodic motif

Verse 1  
He’s got a faded tee and a pocket full of change,  
She’s got a crooked grin and a plan to leave this place.  
They meet by the soda shop where the jukebox knows their names,  
Two restless hearts that think the world will stay the same.

Pre‑Chorus  
For a little while the map is only theirs to read,  
A whispered promise, a cigarette, a midnight creed.

Chorus  
Oh, we were young and we were certain,  
Radio on, windows down, the night was ours to keep.  
We held the stars like they were pennies in our hands,  
But morning came and taught us how to leave.  
Oh, life rolls on, and the pictures stay golden,  
Two names on a porch that the years will keep.

Verse 2  
She writes her future on the back of a diner check,  
He swears he’ll find a highway that don’t look back.  
They slow‑dance in the parking lot to a song that’s half a prayer,  
Laughing at the future like it’s something they can wear.

Interlude  
Vocal hum echoes the chorus melody

Verse 3  
Years will come with quieter shoes and different doors,  
They’ll keep the names like coins in old coat drawers.  
Sometimes a postcard, sometimes a face in a crowd,  
Sometimes the streetlight calls and you stand there proud.

Bridge  
Time’s a slow teacher with a stubborn, gentle hand,  
It folds the map, it burns the edges, it scatters plans like sand.  
But every now and then that corner calls your name,  
And you remember how the small things felt the same.

Reprise  
Oh, we were young and we were certain,  
Radio on, windows down, the night was ours to keep.  
We held the stars like they were pennies in our hands,  
But morning came and taught us how to leave.

Instrumental Part  
(Instrumental section)

Chorus Reprise  
Oh, we were young and we were certain,  
Radio on, windows down, the night was ours to keep.  
We held the stars like they were pennies in our hands,  
But morning came and taught us how to leave.  
Oh, life rolls on, and the pictures stay golden,  
Two names on a porch that the years will keep.

Outro  
Small town Sunday, small town Sunday.  
Small town Sunday, small town Sunday.
