Simone White & Brent Arnold, Fortunately Gone (Breeders cover)

Flowers In May
by Simone White

here's what I learned when you went away
the jacaranda tree flowers in may
jasmine blooms after the rain
4am hear the first plane

ride a bike along the beach the end of the day
the sun descends in red and slowly fades
think of all the things I want to say 
too late

when will I forget I don't know
I want to keep you here inside me to remind me that everything unfolds
one day we'll see

hang a white dress on a line in the sun
do the laundry and the dishes sweep the kitchen
save the bees and baby birds that fall from the trees
look there's one

all night in spring the mockingbird sings
stay up till dawn and sleep all day long
I can feel you with me every moment
even though you're very gone

when will I forget I don't know
I want to keep you here inside me to remind me that everything unfolds
one day we'll see

hang a white dress on a line in the sun
save the bees and baby birds that fall from the trees
clean the glasses line them up in a row
I won't let you go

here's what I learned when you went away
the jacaranda tree flowers in may
jasmine blooms after the rain
4am hear the first plane

Here's a new song, Tiny Drop! It premiered at UN World Oceans Day 2018. The song is anti-war. The video is about plastic pollution in the ocean. We're all tiny drops that make up the world. Every small action you make affects the whole. Everything you vibrate contributes, however small and insignificant you feel, it makes a difference. Vote. Speak truth. Allow yourself to love and be loved. Carry a reusable jar around instead of another effin to-go cup.

Tiny Drop

how much will it cost
a lot a lot
the way the wind blows around you
how the sky felt above you
the beauty that you lost
a lot a lot
for all the wars you fought
you are a tiny drop tiny drop
you are a tiny drop tiny drop

The Beep Beep Song
by Simone White

beep beep beep beep beep beep beep
go the horns in the cars in the street
we walked away from the lover's leap
opposite directions
synchronized feet

wait wait wait wait wait wait wait
for the time it takes a heart to mend a break
how many moons are reflected in the lake
can you wait forever if time is all it takes

despite all the warnings
I landed like
a fallen star
in your arms

beat beat beat beat beat beat beat
goes my heart on the side of my sleeve
whispering something I can hardly believe
"let me take the lead
'cause love is all we need"

released August 2, 2019
Written and performed by Simone White.
Vocal and guitar recorded by Pete Min at Lucy's Meat Market.
Arrangement by Eric Heiberg.

Freight Train
by Elizabeth Cotten with lyric changes by Simone White

freight train freight train
going so fast
freight train freight train
going so fast
please don't tell what train I'm on
so they won't know where I'm gone

when I'm dead and in my grave
no more whiskey will I crave
place the bottle on my head and feet
tell em all I've gone to sleep

when I'm dead lord bury me deep
underneath that old apple tree
I'll be in the fruit you eat
and it will taste mighty sweet


Freight Train (Elizabeth Cotten cover)

"Simone White has a voice like ether. It's sweetly airy and hypnotic. Hearing it can pull you under to a strangely beautiful, glittering world where nothing seems real." - NPR
