lyrics

I'd tell you if I had the words, uh-huh
And I'd keep them caged, 'til they'd been heard, uh-huh
Not just the words, but what they mean
And I'd take a picture of this living dream
To show you that I love you, I love you

We set adrift together and apart,
As we sailed rough seas forever stumbling out into the dark.
But you found the shoreline and I found the sunshine because I love you, Eli, I love you

Eli, won't you understand, these are just the words from a shaky poet's hand, I tried to show you deep what's in my heart.
A love that lasts through hurt and pain, and won't fade or wash out in the rain, when the April showers come to claim the icy winter winds that blow

A love that scares me when I think about, just how much I need you both within me and without. A love that comes deep from my soul.
Eli, I love you. Eli, I love you.

As it happens, it’s also a good record, with a heartfelt earnestness that belies its DIY aesthetic.” Take a listen! ... more
