Dreams are misleading when they're not meant to be
No baby between us, playing wait and see for another life
Another moon, another life
Someday soon
Saying soon, soon but it never comes
Take you out to the city in the night
A couple with a child looks like you and I in another life
Another moon, another life
Someday soon
Saying soon, soon but it never comes
Soon like a flower on a wire growing on and on and on and on
Someday you'll bloom as a kiku
Saying soon, saying soon, soon but it never comes
The clock is ticking

You

Look in the mirror again
I haven't changed nearly enough
Look at the photographs again
There is a mother with her child
Ooh to be you
Believe and it will come
There's a heart in my chest
But I'm worried cause I can't feel my hands again
You are young and alive
You share your heart like it's god damn easy
You have so many friends
But you're fucking fake
With your flower bouquets
Ooh to be you
Believe and it will come
There's a heart in my chest
But I'm worried cause I can't feel my hands again
Try again

In

Do you believe in me
Cause I believe in you and there's nothing anybody can do
I offer you my hand
The dust in my fingertips is made up of pieces of you
Are you in are you out?
Are you in are you out?
Put your clothes on
It's a new dawn
Are you in are you out?

Superbloom
04:59

|
Across the desert cactuses are in flower
There's green out in the mountains
And the creeks are full of water
Never say never
The desert knows how to wait
Some things you can't escape
A break in the weather
For the first time in forever
Driving together
And starting to feel better
Never say never
The desert knows how to wait
Some things you can't escape
Fate
You will bloom when you were meant to
Keep the faith
Superbloom out in the desert is saying 'Hey, hey, it's okay.'

Blind
03:16
|

We keep getting all hung up on the child
Losing all our confidence in style
Because we only go out driving
When the sun is in our eyes
Somewhere new, somewhere far, ‘til we’re blind
Catskill mountain highway
Take me somewhere past the hills
And the shadows that we’re casting
Growing long across the Kills
Forever in the evening in the chill
Somewhere new, somewhere far, ‘til we’re blind

Lies
02:30
|
|||
|
However real your memory seems
It comes from the same place as your fantasies and dreams
And before you were alive
You formed as a tear in your mother's eye
Walking through her tattered gardens
And swearing under her breath
While she cried, that some flowers lie

Eyes
05:15

I'll ride a shooting star into your mind
And it won't explode until you're mine
I'll sing a Sunday service in your soul
I'll redefine with you what's rock and roll
It's in your eyes
You'll eat a fresh and raw sunflower seed
Which will begin to grow in your belly
It will climb up your throat out through your mouth
To bloom so bright and golden when you shout
It's in your eyes

Something
03:46
|
|||
|
I write you messages and receive no response
The enduring chill, my mouth is dry with want
No drink that passes my lips ever calms my shakes
So I sit and wait for the day when you say something
Something, anything will do, I’m waiting for you
When I call out across a quarry I hear my voice in return
It confirms my existence: ego, echo, in turn
This wall of rock, it won’t reply
I’m not sure why I try
to make you say something that proves that I am something
Something, anything will do, I’m waiting for you

Deep
05:15
|
|||
|
Some signs of time surround your eyes
From a life of smiles and a life of cries
I see no lies, only belief
I know you see a home inside of me
I don't know anyone, I don't know anyone, so deep
We'll go away, I know of the place
A view of sunset at the end of the day
Beside a lake, above a bay, and in the shade a dark angel waits
I don't know anyone, I don't know anyone, so deep
I know by looking at your face your emotional state
Whatever's lurking in the shade knows nothing about you babe

Trust
05:49

|||
|
Your hand on my arm, electric through my sleeve
There's no need to disarm, I won't ever leave
We walk through an empty house
to where you dream your dreams
your pillow and your mouth are softer than they seem
Repeat with me these movements
Let love unfold in rhyme
Our heartbeats will align
in vibrations in time
We'll open a door to somewhere
and reach across and feel around together
for the tiny little hand, half yours, half mine
Trust in love and time
Trust in love and time

Sweet, retro rock. Encapsulates the 60s sound perfectly. Festive, chill; acid dancer. Fun to listen to, great to vibe off of, move your body to, or just relax with. Every song on this album is a hit. Dancing album for sure... I saw them live, same kind of fun!
