about

Mixed meter, experimental lyrics, walking bass lines, and guitar solo are what make this penultimate song a memorable one. I wanted to challenge myself with this song. A lot of my older songs have lyrics that explicitly describe my experiences. I decided I wanted to write a song that had no meaning, and instead explored the beautiful sounds of words.

lyrics

There’s nothing you can say to get me to go
There’s nothing you can do to get me to go home
Mmm

The tin is falling on the rain roof
It’s pretty reflective, but I still see through
Ahh, ahh

Another day, another night gone by
So much time to have reached the goddamn sky

The cup is empty, and I wanted more
The joints are loose, but they always feel so sore
Ooh
Ahh, ahh

And I said to you
“Fortune teller’s gonna carry through”
And I said to you
“Fortune teller’s gonna carry through”

Take me to where the creek runs still
Or take me over the sunny rye goat’s hill
Mmm

The moon shines high, as I call to you
The oceans deep, but the water’s still so blue
Mmm
Ahh, ahh

And I said to you
“Fortune teller’s gonna carry through”
And I said to you
“Fortune teller’s gonna carry through”
