lyrics

Hop on the tracks I’ll meet you at the river
When the train stops short in the dead of the winter
Look for the fawn she’s calling for her mother
And I’ll be down past the tree that’s fallen in the river.

I will marry you in the morning as the leaves fall from the trees
The dew will melt the sunshine from your skin that cries relief
The snow as white as gold will cover me from head to toe
And we will kiss to tangle the vows and make it so.

So hop on the tracks I’ll meet you at the river
And in the morning we will shed our shivers
Look for the girl with the light brown curls
Cause she’ll be looking for the guy who’s looking for the girl
I will marry you in the morning as the leaves fall from the trees
The dew will melt the sunshine from your skin that cries relief
The snow as white as gold will cover me from head to toe
And we will kiss to tangle the vows and make it so.

Hop on the tracks I’ll meet you at the river
In the morning we will shed our shivers
Look for the crowed they’re floating on the river
And they’ll pronounce me misses and you’ll be mister.

I will marry you in the morning as the leaves fall from the trees
The dew will melt the sunshine from your skin that cries relief
The snow as white as gold will cover me from head to toe
And we will kiss to tangle the vows and make it so.

Drawing on influences like Laura Veirs and Wye Oak, the music is sometimes subtly dark, but always thoroughly captivating and melodic. ... more
