The Curse

Lyrics:

it was a summer night and i was sleeping 
the moon was out, my head was beaming 
i looked at my dreams like they were gold 
amazing feelings draw within me 
all my conflicts slip beneath me 
like the spirit of a song 
or like the feeling of a lover in your arms 

but ever since that night and after 
the dreams i had i can't recapture 
and it brings me down so low 
the more i search the less i find 
the more i look the more i'm blind 
like a melody so young 
hanging on the tip of the tongue 

if i wait long enough now 
will you come to me 
will you come to me 
so far away, but right beside me 
will you come to me 
will you follow me home 

when we first met we were so young 
we played out past the setting sun 
in a world of make believe 
wooden forts and magic beans 
silly thoughts and silly dreams 
how we said we'd never change 
but somehow life got in the way 

but way back then and even now 
i still love you i don't know how 
you got magic in your eyes 
and underneath our conversation 
in our thoughts our contemplations 
there's a feeling left unsung 
hanging on the tip of the tongue

Moonshine
Color me with moonshine
Making my eyes blind, Too blind to see
That I find, even in the daytime
You and your moonshine shine on me

You’re turning me into a night owl, I don’t know how
You overtook my consciousness and understood my loneliness
It’s misapprehension, often seen as condescension
But believe me when I say, I’m a fan of the direction
You’ve been taking your decisions, sparing me deserved derision,
Rebranded all my faults as “personality omissions”
You’ve eclipsed my inhibitions, pulled me out of darkly drifting
Never need to find another, cause I found someone to color me with Moonshine…

To me it’s enervating, what we’ve recreated
An acrylic piece over shadows painted
Watch the memories of gallows hanging
I can’t seem to fathom a day without your passion
Webbed in the dark, I feel it unraveling
I surf your bluesy waves and my soul goes traveling
I found a well of fishes that have granted me these wishes
In the darkest night you heal me with your Moonshine…

It’s almost painful how elegant you look smiling
I’m filing it away into the back of my mind
Your stylings are outdated but you’ve somehow recreated
A spark inside a part of me that’s long ago sedated
Take me back to seventeen, back to before
Your soul has lived a lifetime through peace and the war
Through perigees and blues you’ve held temerity and truth
I’m alone in the dark but I’m always with you, you’re my Moonshine…

Here's a stripped down version of one of our favorite Prince songs, Nothing Compares 2 U. We grew up adoring Sinéad O'Connor's cover from 1990.

LYRICS:

It's been seven hours and fifteen days
Since you took your love away
I go out every night and sleep all day
Since you took your love away

Since you been gone I can do whatever I want
I can see whomever I choose
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
But nothing
I said nothing can take away these blues
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

It's been so lonely without you here
Like a bird without a song
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
Tell me baby where did I go wrong

I could put my arms around every boy I see
But they'd only remind me of you
I went to the doctor and guess what he told me?
Guess what he told me?
He said girl you better try to have fun 
No matter what you do, but he's a fool
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

All the flowers that you planted mama
In the back yard
All died when you went away
I know that living with you baby was sometimes hard
But I'm willing to give it another try
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
