about

Title track from debut EP.

lyrics

Don’t you try boy, you’ll get twisted
Don’t you ask when you already know
Cause the light comes slowly in New Orleans through orange blossom blinds
And the way they grow them trees in the Bayou can tangle up the mind
So Don’t you hide boy, your eyes betray you
And don’t you shy, when you know your part
Cause when strangers hold your hand down on Frenchman in the love of nights return
You can bet there’s a line of heron flying west with a sprig of juniper
And when green circled leaves on white sheets are the table for your feast,
You can taste gifted wine from the bottle to my lips past your knees
Oh were drunk, in a lilac field
Can’t make out whats dream and whats real
And in that crack, yeah that shift,
Oh the twilight, the slip
That’s exactly where I want to be
Me holding you and you holding me
