Any old hour, baby, any old time
But you know nothing will be the same
In a conversation I said your name
And like spell it brought you back again
Sends me down to the ocean one more time
Not a star up above, not a living soul around
We stayed up forever, we took the car
To where the road stops out by the sea
The lilacs of the fireweed flowers makes it hard to even see
In the meadow where you're walking way out ahead of me
Down to the ocean one last time
No, I won't stay the winter, you can't turn me around
Down to the ocean one last time
No, I won't stay the winter
Just when I'd forgotten all about you
I did so well, it's true, never better
I received a sealed envelope, the edges weathered
And in it, two green feathers
For the vaults
Sends me down to the ocean one more time
Not a star up above, not a living soul around
But you know nothing will be the same
In a conversation I said your name
And like spell it brought you back again
Sends me down to the ocean one more time
Not a star up above, not a living soul around
We stayed up forever, we took the car
To where the road stops out by the sea
The lilacs of the fireweed flowers makes it hard to even see
In the meadow where you're walking way out ahead of me
Down to the ocean one last time
No, I won't stay the winter, you can't turn me around
Down to the ocean one last time
No, I won't stay the winter
Just when I'd forgotten all about you
I did so well, it's true, never better
I received a sealed envelope, the edges weathered
And in it, two green feathers
For the vaults
Sends me down to the ocean one more time
Not a star up above, not a living soul around

Enjoyed Silvert's work since his tenure in Madrugada, obviously discovered thanks to RP. Great voice

Well I do have something to say about it: I love it.
The bass and guitar make a beautifully dark land where Silvert's voice tells the tragic tale.
