vocals folk lyrics concept harmonica
Guitar, harmonica, vocals, and not much else. Folk, mainly.
Just me, mainly, playing guitar and harmonica and singing. Fairly folkish, and if you were naive, you might call it emo.

Lyrics
We sat silent in the car Without a whisper but the wind But all our thought were understood And I couldn't find your face I couldn't reach you from my seat But it wouldn't matter if i could It's empty now... And I wonder if you've heard I didn't mean to let this pass My life is just one big regret But it hasn't gone to waste I've got my picture book on tape And there's no way I could forget you now Flooded in your holy water, I could hardly breathe And it's left me at the bottom of the sea I'd have to say I was blown away by every breath you took And you left me like a leaf pressed in a book On the airplane when we met Who would have thought you'd be a threat? I thought that I'd escaped your tricks But in the evening playing cards Was then you caught me off my guard And it hit me like a load of bricks Flooded in your holy water, I could hardly breathe And it's left me at the bottom of the sea You beckoned me closer, and I thought I'd take a look And you left me like a leaf pressed in a book Flooded in your holy water, I could hardly breathe And it's left me at the bottom of the sea It was the world that loved you, but it was me that you shook And you left me like a leaf pressed in a book Sunday morning in my bed I remembered what you said And I was nearly brought to tears I don't think I could be more blunt You're the woman that I want The one I've waited for for years Can't lose you now...
