My body aches all over and these days I’m hardly sober.
But baby remain by me
Well it’s warm under your covers and damn you’re such a darling lover.
So don’t ever leave
I said things I surely didn’t mean but that’s just the darker side of me.
Come on babe give me an easy day.
I like to watch you sleep I like to watch you breathe.
Come over and take away my pain.
Chorus:
Cus I don’t need the sunlight, to burn and scorch my skin.
Cus if I’m looking for a beacon then darling you’re surely it.
But I’ll take to the moonlight if it’ll let me in.
Cast out into the night time to hide my shame and sin.
Don’t raise your voice at me, oh let’s not make a scene
Now don’t you act that way.
What did that other girl say? Let’s not play the lying game.
Cus you know I’ll win anyday.
You’re a king so wear your crown just put that bottle down.
And be a man of the words you say.
At your best it don’t get better it all depends on the weather.
So maybe you should lead the way.
Chorus:
Cus I don’t need the sunlight, to burn and scorch my skin.
Cus if I’m looking for a beacon then darling you’re surely it.
But I’ll take to the moonlight if it’ll let me in.
Cast out into the night time to hide my shame and sin.
I’ll always put aside the bad things you do I’ll only ever see the best in you
Just slow down for awhile.
The dark days I’ll soon forget you’re always be my favorite.
Except when you get to wild.
You move fast but you love real slow but the places you’ve been and the things you know.
Tell me stories of you as a child.
I feel I’ve known you my whole life even when you’re wrong you’re always right.
Stay with me for a while.
Chorus:
Cus I don’t need the sunlight, to burn and scorch my skin.
Cus if I’m looking for a beacon then darling you’re surely it.
But I’ll take to the moonlight if it’ll let me in.
Cast out into the night time to hide my shame and sin.
Juxtaposing poetic balladry with roaring feedback and warped piano lines, the Vermonter's music is as stunning as it is unsettling. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 21, 2024
