Noah Jones Beautiful song from Augustine as always. Somehow his music always balances tricky pairings, sincere and ornate , pretty and unsettling, smooth and ferocious, ever-sifting yet with repetition.

Lyrics:

We’ll fall in love,
We’ll live forever and we’ll never get old
We’ll fall in love, we’ll live forever and we’ll never get old
And what we create won’t degrade or fade away
With all the things that were never given names


I won’t be Bartleby, the Scrivener
You’re too much to handle but I’ll be better now
“If she kills me I’ll forgive her”
If that’s too sobering a thought to begin one’s wedding vows, then

Everyday I’ll depict your beautiful face
Til every wall’s filled and new ones have to be made
And everything you want
You’ll wake to everything you want
And every morning
We’ll fall in love


We’ll live forever and we’ll never get old
We’ll fall in love, we’ll live forever and we’ll never get old
And what we create won’t degrade or fade away
With all the things that were never given names


There’s old bones beneath them
I will shield your eyes and always lie about the end
Learn to kill bare-handed for our children
Wash the blood off in the hand basin
Stained with house paint in the basement

Cold things, I’ll learn to keep to my own
There the phone rings to say it’s happy at home
We’ll fill what voids remain
In each other’s lives like water can fill containers
Your thoughts and mine and places and time
Will all be mixed up and intertwined and we’ll...

Intimately speak with each creak and
Memorize each crack in our ceilings and
Know by heart the height of each stair
Measured in our growing children’s legs
Blind to the homeless lying outside in the golden sun
Deaf to the shells of the world at war with itself

And everything you want...
