I saw you across the way You laughed Tilted your head back The sun it blazed Sending puffs of steam Up from the pavement I just looked from where I stood Afraid You pushed back your hair Out of your eyes The shoes upon your feet They were the wrong size The lettuce between your teeth It was so green But still you are to me The best prize Ooo Ooo When at first we met I thought you were The one who liked to tease And flirt Sometimes The best things in this life You just can't see Until they're staring at you in The eye Ooo Ooo

I feel like a crumpled old leaf Like I'm walking a dark street alone And I can't seem to find the moon And I can't seem to find my way home I feel like a napkin stained red From a bottle of wine spilled in haste I've got all the colors But I'm missing the taste Oh I'm missing the taste And I see all the people The hands holding hands And I'm stuck here just wishing That you'd be my man I'm watching the time Slip away through the sand And I'm stuck here just wishing That you'd be my man I feel like a worn photograph Like a film strip in the window hung to dry And I'm there in the pictures that you took There was love in my eyes There was love in my eyes And I see all the people The hands holding hands And I'm stuck here just wishing That you'd be my man I'm watching the time Slip away through the sand And I'm stuck here just wishing That you'd be my man

I've been sleeping Over for weeks We've been trading All our outfits So I'm wondering Would you be please Like to be mine (like to be mine) For forever (for a long time) I will love you (each day stronger) Longer than always for the longest time Eggs and bagels Ice in coffee Sweet romances Quiet talking You know my order I know that I'd like to be yours (like to be yours) For forever (be assured) You will love me (each day stronger) Longer than always for the longest time Hold my hand and I'll hold yours Show me your heart what's inside your soul Tell me your worries and tell me your dreams And I'll do what I can to stitch up your seams Trust me darling I know that We will be fine (you will be mine) For forever (for a long time) Our love makes us (makes us stronger) Longer than always for the longest time

Who's driving down this road at four a.m. Why is anybody else awake this time of day Are they worried just like me About reality Is their heartbeat in their stomach Just like mine Who's driving down this road at four a.m. Do they know they need to get their engine checked Do they hear birds chirp amen As the morning light breathes in again Casting sunshine on these faded Postered walls All I wanna do is fall asleep But here I am wondering if you're awake thinking of me My phone's dead I'm tucked into a friend's spare bed As the June air blows in and out Out of my head All I wanna do is fall asleep But here I am wondering if you're awake thinking of me My phone's dead I'm tucked into a friend's spare bed As the June air blows in and out In and out Out of my head Who's driving down this road at four a.m. Maybe I could maybe I could maybe I could hitch a ride with them Will your arms be flung open wide For me to curl up inside Will the air be still my heart beat fast the air be still my heart beat fast Again

Light strikes the corner with a peculiar sort of shape The world outside is warming Birds through the window with their warbling mess of cries Here in early morning You're lost in dreams I've got to go Rain rolling slowly as my breath fogs up the glass Wishing to stay longer I watch you for a moment with your hair a crazy mess Here in perfect slumber You're lost in dreams I've got to go When I'm tired and my knees are aching bad You'll be there to kiss 'em I'll tell you 'bout my day and you'll let me ramble on and on You act like it's your mission You're lost in dreams I've got to go You're lost in dreams I've got to go

about

Sweet Petunia Boston, Massachusetts

Listening to queer freak folk duo Sweet Petunia for the first time, many are blown away by the interchanging vocal lines of Madison Simpson & Mairead Guy. Unbelievably, the two are not related, though their voices are almost indistinguishable from each other. These brother harmonies lead Sweet Petunia through many shifting genres, melding traditional folk sensibilities with a distinct punk flare. ... more
