(Lyrics)
Where the rocks are, a whispering green
Wherever you are, called to the clearing
Past the rock wall, a light through the trees
A truth in the tones, that sang me to sleep

Where the rocks are, going to it
Pour me over, show me how to begin

Where the rocks are, to face with the years
And how to begin, the distance appears
Where the rocks are, the end to a dream
A weight off your back, a feeling of peace

Where the rocks are, going to it
Pour me over, show me how to begin

Where the rocks are, tell me how to begin.

Where The Rocks Are

(Lyrics)
If I were the first to love
You’d be the first to be loved
Wait as the roots find their way
They’ll grow deeper with each passing day

Look as the clouds pass overhead
I will count them till the daylight ends
It will take more than one try
We will wait for a brighter sky

Peel away, keeping me up through the night
I’ll be ok, be whatever you like
Fall away, I’ll stay with you by your side
Escape, be whatever you like

There is a way that you move
Through the spaces in front of you
Filling the room with light
I can watch you with unflinching eyes

It takes one more try
With each passing night
Each passing day
Each passing night

California-born, New York-based singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. Her sophomore album Goodbye Long Winter Shadow releases May 9, 2025 via Last Gang Records. 
Produced by Philip Weinrobe (Adrianne Lenker, Florist) and Oliver Hill (Magdalena Bay, Helado Negro), the result is chamber pop abounding with melodic intimacy, a world where instruments bob and weave around the heart-stopping clarity of Friedman’s voice.
