No mirrors in the bathroom
No easy time alone
No visits now to lend you
What you already own
No change in the pocket
For calls on the phone
To say, I miss you, and I love you; I’ll see you back home
Though it kills me to sleep every night
Dream of you there with this thorn in your side
If I could give you what you need for this stay
It’d flood on and on and on and on
Til’ I faded away
The talk groups every morning
The strangers in a crowd
The darkness I envision
You saying out loud
My love’s just a witness
Moss on the stone
Say, I miss you, and I love you; I’ll see you back home
Though it kills me to sleep every night
Dream of you there with this thorn in your side
If I could give you what you need for this stay
It’d flood on and on and on and on
Til’ I faded away
Sing it both together
Though harmony is frail
The weight that is upon me
I’ve already failed
So give us both the chance now to
Reap what we’ve sewn
Say, I miss you, and I love you, and I’ll see you back home
There may be days passing by
Far from our grey, cloudy eyes
Under a warm Sunday sky
We can just dream, you and I
There may be days passing by
Far from our grey, cloudy eyes
Under a warm Sunday sky
We can just dream, you and I

Thin Lear New York, New York
PopMatters "Best Albums of the Year" (9/10)
AllMusic (★★★★)
Featured on NPR's New Music Friday
Bandcamp's New & Noteworthy
Thin Lear recommends:
Lovely melodies, stripped down arrangements, and perfectly raw production. I heard "Knockout" and was just hypnotized for the next nine songs. Just pure joy in songwriting.

Hazy, hooky vocals swimming in a wash of lovely production. I listened to this record half-asleep on a bus once, and I think it's permanently stuck somewhere in my subconscious now.
go to album
I've loved this Tumbleweed Connection track for years, and her cover just breaks my heart in a new way. Aching and impossibly gentle, like a jazzy Fairport Convention.
