about

originally released June 5, 2012 on The Water Balloon

lyrics

every guy in the place tonight
and at least four girls
pick her out from sights in room
as center of caramel swirl

her smile begins the greeting
and the tone precise starts releasing
cues to think in defense automatically
“everyone loves Libby but me”

in the effort to be unique
and not just a body that breathes
they’ll claim they’re not entranced
by the grace into which she taps

and those working by her side each night
will have even more to deny
and think to themselves dismissively
“everyone loves Libby but me”

cause they wouldn’t fall for same reason
that pulls in everyone else
who wouldn’t see what makes her so special
they’d be the only ones that could tell

when her shift comes to a close
she’ll probably just go home
watch some TV and go to bed
frightened of connection

around Seattle hearts quickly beat
after a single glimpse from the seat
vowing before admitting defeat
“everyone loves Libby but me”

These recordings feel knowingly classic but gently break through to make their own impression. Truly well crafted/produced songs with the right blend of skilled instrumentation and expressive lyricism. Mary of Rain and Tickets and Tapes are my favorites. a leaf
