about
from Jack & Jill "Fancy Birdhouse" 1997
lyrics
now that the summer turns to auburn leaves
we roll our bicycles down the hill
we never wondered about what came next
we never thought of our own free will
we’d sneak away to behind a row of trees
smoke one stolen cigarette
we never got the sign that we knew what we were doing,
that brown spot on the filtertip
you run away and the memories slip away
you run away and the memories they slip away
like a stream sliding in, into the lapping waves
like a stream sliding in, into the lapping waves
into the lapping waves
with the first freeze of winter
the school had left the sprinklers on\
the grass became a field of icy spikes
we looked across it toward the dawn
the tule fog it curled around our hips
we looked away across the fields
at all the landscapes we imagined to be out there
and all the secrets they’d reveal
you run away and the memories slip away
you run away and the memories they slip away
like a stream sliding in, into the lapping waves
like a stream sliding in, into the lapping waves
into the lapping waves
now that the leaves have all fallen to the ground
smell of december in the air
i’ll bring you pomegranates from the tree in my front yard
we’ll break them apart to share
we roll our bicycles down the hill
we never wondered about what came next
we never thought of our own free will
we’d sneak away to behind a row of trees
smoke one stolen cigarette
we never got the sign that we knew what we were doing,
that brown spot on the filtertip
you run away and the memories slip away
you run away and the memories they slip away
like a stream sliding in, into the lapping waves
like a stream sliding in, into the lapping waves
into the lapping waves
with the first freeze of winter
the school had left the sprinklers on\
the grass became a field of icy spikes
we looked across it toward the dawn
the tule fog it curled around our hips
we looked away across the fields
at all the landscapes we imagined to be out there
and all the secrets they’d reveal
you run away and the memories slip away
you run away and the memories they slip away
like a stream sliding in, into the lapping waves
like a stream sliding in, into the lapping waves
into the lapping waves
now that the leaves have all fallen to the ground
smell of december in the air
i’ll bring you pomegranates from the tree in my front yard
we’ll break them apart to share

Series of Nested Universes
by Sista Majsupported by 13 fans who also own “Into The Lapping Waves”
Psychedelia in the vein of late-60s Pink Floyd, this album is perfect for really anything - Background music, sleeping music, driving music, or just something to put on to fill the silence. Easily in my top 5 favourite albums of all time - Quite a find to stumble across!
