Bill S. I discovered this album via an old Israeli podcast that featured the track. The whole album is beautifully moody and reserved indie folk pop. Favorite track: The minute.

Insecure 05:03
Mom's cooking in the kitchen food will be served in just a few, finished your homework on time today got nothing else to do. feels good to be here so why do i look so sad feeling insecure about the way i live, the things I've said and done music has always been my best friend when i had no one else around even when the song stops at the end of every tape it always started again on the other side all my friends, where are they now? have i lost them all on the way got a few more in the back of my head the ones i miss are already the dead ones

Six days 04:31
Television's on again need a cigarette need a cup of coffee a girl to love and hate city makes me sick with all those phony smiles "oh ,what a lovely morning" "what a fucked up day you had at work" six days on the run from camden town to soho where am i today where we gonna be tomorrow city makes me sick with all those phony smiles "oh ,what a lovely morning" "what a fucked up day you had at work" go pack your life again the airplane is waitin', guitar on your back not sure where you are heading, airports make me sick with all those plastic emotions, "oh what a lovely day" "a lovely day to get out of here"

Down in a second ...be down in a second I might as well jump in to the pool I can't swim I'll probably drown - i am no good with questions I'll let you pave the road to an end, starting over - with somebody else, here i am - in your car driving into the night on the bridge -and you put on our favorite song i don't care - you can drop me from the edge of the hill it's nice that you've mentioned my falling downs, glad you were there stop the car cause you're driving me mad and we're getting nowhere this monologue of yours and me: sharing silence with you i've got nothing left to say. here i am - standing naked in front of the one i adore and i guess that you will never know, i don't care - you can go i'll be back on my own

woke up this morning with you on my side, no clocks to wake us no phones to interrupt the world might end tomorrow and i don't mind cause i've got you on my side let's take the dog out for a walk in the park the sun shines for us baby no reason to rush i'm not afraid to say that i love cause i've got you on my side
5.
If i could stay one night with you, I'll show you that my love is true, Put on that Joni Mitchell song we'll dance all night don't worry i won't let you fall I'll be your man - tonight You don't have to talk, i understand, You don't need a lover ,just a friend I've heard this one before, you know i told you all about her, guess that i should go. stop the music - cause you don't deserve that Joni Mitchell song she's falling and she's falling she's falling I feel stupid to fall in love with you

Pills 00:58

The minute 02:54
The minute The minute i see you walk away i would die, can't live my life without you and see it falls apart, and all these song i wrote I didn't mean to hurt you darling. The minute i see you walk away I would die the words don't come so easy to me I can try, and all these lies I've said I didn't mean no hurt you darling.

Sidewalks and trains (2 chords) Dreams will be over crashing cars, rush hour you're back from work tired, these strange frightening lies will not ,be over till i tell the truth bout the way i feel bout the way i feel about you. Cars on the highway rush hour ,traffic jams one way to float one way to stay calm not thinking bout you keep myself busy all the time. Running like a cat sidewalks and trains be sure to check it one day i'll be ok. 2 chords are enough to sing what i feel one is for sorrow the other for pain
9.
Plastic heart Got your little heart in my blue jeans pocket so i won't forget you every time i sing this song and you'll always be there to show me the way you're my little angel the girl i'll never have.

Black dress 03:18
Black dress I came here to see you, We have to talk about the things that made me hate you the things that on your mind. you know i used to love you back then you were so pretty wearing the black dress ,Saturday morning we were always on our way. ...and then when something happened you knew that i'll be fine although you drive me crazy you always make me smile, you know i used to love you waited long long time for you to say you love me, for you to say "you're mine"
11.
Waiting for my girl to come home The sun will shine tomorrow cause that's how i feel and everything will be th same except for my grin i will sing the song till i see your face I'm just waiting for my girl to come home got your letter, got your smile on my screen the phone call when you say you loved - before we go to sleep i will sing the song till i see your face i'm just waiting for my girl to come home Got a new flat, got a bed i can share, enough milk in the fridge to make you coffee when you wake up, I'm not going anywhere, I'll be singing this song, while waiting for you to come home.
