lovely and still - dan craig

i just thought you might like to read the lyrics from which this blog was named...from this album

Lovely and Still

Your thirteen muscles bunching up

Into a smile that fills my cup until it overflows

Sometimes it’s hard for me to let you in

When these are games that I don’t always win, but then your eyes close

And you look like a picture of my queen

Smiling like you’ve already

Seen the sun above my windowsill

It’s lovely and still

Hearts and records washed up on this shore

Where we have broken both before, don’t let it get you down

Cause every wave washes us clean

And you’re about the best thing that I’ve seen, and you know me

I’ve been around

Chorus

Break me down, I’ll be a child before you, but go slow

Pinch your lips, don’t say you’ll miss me baby cause I know, oh I know

So before you go, back to Chicago, kiss me softly with your eyes closed

And write this down

I’ve seen the sun above your windowsill, it’s lovely and still
