Stay free,
In all that you do,
When the tides, they carry you,
Darling, promise and stay free.
I lost hope somewhere on distant shores,
In the cities my heart explored,
Under the lights that stain your soul.
I'm breaking down,
Got no hope left,
And when you hear that song on the radio,
Let it dissolve every ounce of your loneliness,
Because bliss is on the otherside,
Of every pitiful, cold, cold night.
Stay free,
When you're on your last cent,
And the tears do not relent,
Darling, promise and stay free.
And don't quell that fire deep inside,
Or it'll burn your every sense,
That makes you feel alive.
Write a song,
Take a walk,
In the cemertary there are ghosts to be found,
Sleep in your car, idle your engine out,
I know it gets so hard at night,
Just stay up wash your sins in the morning light.
Brian Fallon's lyrics are always outstanding, but since this album focuses less on vocal melody and more on vocal delivery (ex. last verse of Cherry Blossoms) his imagery comes alive tenfold Daniel West
Just found this cover and it's awesome and worth checking out. My favorite Counting Crows song and this version is as if Blake Schwarzenbach and Adam Duritz had a child, which sounds pretty sweet Daniel West
The lead singer of punk band Camp Cope ventures into romantic synth-pop territory, tempering slick arrangements with bare sentiment.
