Recorded live at Plum's Bar in Saint Paul, MN during the Minnesota Songwriter Showcase with a ridiculous amount of reverb.

lyrics

We met through friends of friends
That’s how these things go
It never ends
I saw you and you saw me
We saw our souls, the symmetry
That sameness that has kept us two
From loving mes and loving yous

We’ve been lonely
A thousand years
Before today
And will a thousand more

And lifting up brown bags
To our lips at the parade
We thought about holding hands
And sipped Mickey’s Grenades
Too scared to make a move
Too scared to just go home
Too scared to be together
And too scared to be alone

When finding out is the whole battle
It sends my brains to roll and rattle
All’s not fair in this war of love
No troops showed up, no planes above
Just an empty old and dusty field
That some farmer scorned for lack of yield

It’s sat empty
A thousand years
Before today
And will a thousand more

So lifting crystal glasses
To our lips by fireside
The red wine in our bloodstreams
Makes it easier to hide
That we’re too scared to make a move
Too scared to just go home
Too scared to be together
And too scared to be alone
To be alone
To be alone
To be alone

Lost and Found
by The Broken Bicycles

This is so pretty and will get stuck in your head. I helped with edits in the mastering, but received no compensation. Buy it and tell them I sent you. I'm hoping for at least 10-15 high fives as pay. I'm Not Dead/I'm Not A Robot
