Now
More than any man I know
I strap a spacesuit to my chest
And watch the planet that I left, it rises slow
More than any dream I've dreamt
With her Cailin Russo neck
I can see her from the deck out by the road
More than any girl I've had
She could drink and take a drag
When you're young, that's all you have, and this I know
Love's not simple here anymore
And I've gone mental over how to leave this world and go back home
She
More than any pretty thing
I will miss her most of all
When her towers start to fall into the sea
More than any life I'd lead
I know that one was the best
'Cause I spent it on my chest between her knees
And her rivers, still they run
When they crash into the sun
In some life will I be young enough to see?
Love's not simple here anymore
And I've gone mental over how to leave this world and go back home
Yeah, love's not simple here anymore
And I've gone mental over how to leave this world and go back home
More than any time before
I think I finally figured out
Being happy with yourself and with your life
We got pretty stoned
With your hands on your chest
And my ego
And we, we clung to the roof
And the morning laid rest all around you
And I won't forget how you looked in that dress
On the day that first I met you
You had all your friends
And a camera to make them look vintage
And I, I felt like a king
When you leaned yourself into my window
To sing me a song that I wrote for my mom
On the day that first I met you
And it only took a day
With that tattoo of yours, and the look on your face
You told marry you quick
And I think that you're funny
So much so I think
That I could be your baby
And I still regret every word that I said
On the day that first I met you
Love Song for Lady Earth was written by Del Water Gap.
Del Water Gap released Love Song for Lady Earth on Fri Mar 10 2017.
[…] the last song on the record that’s really special to me, it’s called “Love Song For Lady Earth” and I’m really proud of it as a song but also I just wrote it at a really formative time for myself. I was staying in Charleston with my mom, in Isle of Palms, it was like the off season, not the tour...
