about

Taken from the forthcoming album "Stairgazing" - available through Farm Music November 2017.

lyrics

Straight after I soiled my trousers
I realised we were jumping houses
And our love would kill us even if it worked
We both knew you hurt yourself
We just kept drinking to good health
Sometimes that was all that we could do
That was always the case with me and you

And sometimes we’d lose our minds
And we’d hope and pray that things would still be okay

The first thing that I learned from you was nothing I didn’t need to know

Like Jack & Jill swinging from the rafters
One fell first and the other tumbled after
And our crowns were broken
Our halos crushed into what was always the state of me and you

And some days we’d drift away
And our dreams would find their own space and time
And sometimes we’d lose our minds
And we’d hope and pray that things would still be okay
