Lord Waverly

Melodic, catchy, bittersweet. A modern singer/songwriter. Along the lines of Elliott Smith, Belle & Sebastian, Eric Matthews, Nick Drake, Badly Drawn Boy...

Hailing from New Orleans, LA, Lord Waverly operates by a strong asthetic rooted in modern architecture: Simplify, then repeat. Their lyrics are delicate and melodies are fragile, pretty little things that conjure emotions connected to childhood and innocence, while remaining connected to the more bittersweet relationships we encounter throughout adulthood.

SoundClick artist Lord Waverly presents "Train Tracks", an outstanding release in the Indie genre. There is an authenticity to the performance that draws the listener in. The Beach influence comes through clearly, making this especially appealing to indie fans. If Beatles, Bowie and Lord is in your rotation, "Train Tracks" belongs there too — find it on SoundClick.

Lyrics

sunrise on the edge of town
i thought you would meet me there
train tracks like the pearly gates
cat naps in the salty air

but i'll never wonder if you could've made me stay

genius, sell your deepest thoughts
make up for the girl you lost
have that meaningless affair
wear those clothes you'd never wear

write all the letters that i always meant to write
told all my friends goodbye and kissed my mom goodnight
sit on a bench at sunrise

dream now of a healthy smile
eyes drop as the girls float by
sleep now as i'm on my own
held down where i have no home

but i'll always wonder if you'll meet me there someday
live someone else's life and make it mine one day
step on the train, step on the train
step on the train, step on the train
step on the train and leave it all
