about

A song about getting older, taking things for granted, and being thankful.

lyrics

I found a cozy little place in the corner of a crowded room, in the dull and constant roar of conversation I heard you, you sounded like the very first drop of rain to hit the surface of a sleeping lake, you spoke with the shimmer of moonlit ice through a veil of snowflakes.

This was easier when I was seventeen, I couldn’t see through anyone, and no one saw me. My dreams were still naïve, and I took comfort in belief, that I needed to be someone’s somebody.

I found a cozy little place in the corner of your busy life, in the moments we could spare we made a happy husband and wife, we grew together like two planets in each-others orbit hurdling through space, sometimes it’s the things we barely notice keeping us secured in place.

This was easier when we were twenty-three, we couldn’t see through anyone, and no one saw you and me. Our dreams were still naïve, and we took comfort in belief, that we needed to be someone’s somebody.

It’s a long was down sinking deep in your chest, and the words spilled out like confetti on your breath, and the world stood still and we hung by a thread, as you held my hand, and I remember you said.

This was easier when it was you and me, we couldn’t see through anyone, and we weren’t always worried. Our dreams were still naïve, and we took comfort in belief, that we needed to be someone’s somebody.

Virtual Heaven
by Infinity Crush

Just found this by chance in the "if you like David Stone... section" - It's a beautifully warm record, clean and smooth, but without being polished to a shine. Perfect walking-in-Autumn record. David Stone
