Quarter after three
I’m meeting you at quarter to four
Leaving me with thirty chances to dance my way right out the door
I haven’t seen you in years
I fear it’s best we had left it that way
With you, it’s always the same
With two feet planted firmly
I’m truly feeling gravity
When you walk in the room
Weighty words of halfway healing
I watch your eyes float to the ceiling
And I sink inside
With you, it’s always the same
I move to leave and it moves in me
The thought that I had acted so carelessly
Back when you were at my feet
You caught my hand and you held me too close
A guarded man, an abandoned post
Dancing toe to toe again
Eyes closed, I know you see me
I inhale (and exhale) you so deeply
You say you always needed me the most
And with me, it’s always the same
And with you, it’s always the same
With me, it’s always the same
Almost quarter to four
I make the call
I grab my keys
I head out the door

On a cold June morning
In a northern town
With no sense of direction when my feet hit the ground
I was just heading out
I wandered those streets for an hour or two
‘Till the skies, they opened up
And they brought me to you
And I opened up
Christine
Let’s go back to those places that I’ve never been
Because I’ve been
Losing track of those faces that I can’t unsee
I can’t unsee them, Christine
She said meet me in the morning
I’ll give you my keys
You can head to my apartment
Take all the time you need
So I took my time
I made myself some breakfast
And i slowly fell apart
I realized that I’d been lying from the start
I realized
Christine
Let’s go back to those places that I’ve never been
Because I’ve been
Losing track of those faces that I can’t unsee
Oh, Christine
Let’s go back to those places that I’ve never been
Now I can’t sleep
No, I can’t sleep
I can’t sleep Christine

Tip-toe to the edge
And overthrow everything you thought you had left
You and I, we’re strangers now
Letting go of you
So I can be free
My heart, it started to feel so heavy
You and I, we’re strangers now
I’m going to lay this out to dry
And rearrange all the pieces I laid on the line
When I was caught in the downpour of you and I
You and I
Lover, don’t you understand?
I’m not made a woman by another's hands
You and I, we are strangers now
I’m going to lay this out to dry
And rearrange all the pieces I laid on the line
When I was caught in the downpour of you and I
You and I
I’m going to lay this out to dry
And rearrange all the pieces I laid on the line
When I was caught in the downpour of you and I
At the edge of the storm, you’ll find me at the eye
I’m going to hold this to the sun
So I can make light
Of the fool you made of me

Folky and sparse on the face of it, but there's a richness and emotional gravitas to this EP. I've spent some time trying to figure out how that was done but it's still magic to me, really.
