I DO NOT OWN THIS
Lyrics:
If i were a mirror
I'd look right deep inside myself
And if things were much clearer
I'd see a brighter day
And if you were my lover
I'd wrap your locks around my wrists
And shake beneath the shudders
That turn to black your face
For you know that life is neverending
Sometimes the miles seem to long to try
I've got a love
She is my anchor
She held me down
And saved my soul
So take the blood, and hate, and anger
And let it go
If i were the summer
I'd give my light to all the world
And wake you in your slumber
So you could see my eyes
And as your feelings crumbled
And all the words i keep will twirl
I'll catch you in your tumble
And kiss your face goodbye
For you know that life is neverending
Sometimes the miles just seem to long to try
But i've got a love
She is my anchor
She held me down
And saved my soul
So take the blood, and hate, and anger
And let it go
If i were made of water
I'd slip my bones into the cracks
And freeze when it got colder
To hold the walls in true
And when it came to summer
I'd slip my soul into the yard
And give life to the flowers
That i never gave to you
But i know that life is neverending
Sometimes the miles can cut you down to size
But i had a love
She was my anchor
She held me down
And saved my soul
So take the blood you never gave her
And let it go
Something about his voice in this period is so good and I wish there was more. The psychedelic imagery in the lyrics and bright melodies are so cool
NMH had a lot of hidden stuff no one's heard of, like Unreleased Demos #1 and #2, which I believe what this is off of. But yeah, their stuff is incredible, and I'll always wish for more. But what we got now ain't half bad.
I keep finding more and more beautiful NMH songs that I've never heard before. This song, Oh Sister, Gardenhead, Jennifer, and more all knocked me on my ass. These are all pretty simple songs (except maybe Gardenhead) but I've never heard anything like them before. Jeff Magnum's style is incredible.
this song and others like it by jeff have shaped me as a person. i'm forever grateful for that
The singer doesn't sound like the same person at all but the musical style is unmistakable.
Because of the ending, I like to imagine this song being connected to Naomi.
rose walace goldaline :cool:
This sounds a lot like Everything Is and Where You’ll Find Me Now
This is the epitome of this type of music I love this song
This has got to be a favourite nmh song for me
had no idea. this is really good.
For you know life is never ending... ✨
this is pretty cool
but i dont want to let go :(
omg how come I never heard this song before? :o Man all this NMH unreleased material makes me realize if they ever decide to release a third record it will fuckeen slay!!
The final line is actually "so take the *love* you never gave her", not blood

oh yeah
oh
Simply a great song
Stays on repeat

It's supposed to be "unfurl".. not "will twirl"
