lyrics
The sun sets later now than last month
The world is warming to us
We’ll take the long way home
And I’ll show yout how the city connects
You can’t plug that in here it’s a different system
Our electric sockets don’t match
But you’ve got an egg
That translates from my current back to yours
With your pale blue eyes and my Norwegian wood
Everything’s already understood
Feels like we’ll be flying high forever
But it’s a long way down
Well all the things I’ve got have marks made on them
And most of my memories too
But we’ll take a song I know
And I’ll sing harmonies in and out of tune
With your bright eyes and my Norwegian blue
It was already dead before I found you
Now it feels like we’ll be flying high forever
And it’s a long way down
It’s a long way down
The world is warming to us
We’ll take the long way home
And I’ll show yout how the city connects
You can’t plug that in here it’s a different system
Our electric sockets don’t match
But you’ve got an egg
That translates from my current back to yours
With your pale blue eyes and my Norwegian wood
Everything’s already understood
Feels like we’ll be flying high forever
But it’s a long way down
Well all the things I’ve got have marks made on them
And most of my memories too
But we’ll take a song I know
And I’ll sing harmonies in and out of tune
With your bright eyes and my Norwegian blue
It was already dead before I found you
Now it feels like we’ll be flying high forever
And it’s a long way down
It’s a long way down

supported by 4 fans who also own “Flying High Forever”
The name of this album perfectly encapsulates everything I love about Elizabeth's musical output from the Darlings to Allo Darlin' to these precious songs: an unyielding optimism that is never naive, and by being so, becomes wildly contagious. Some music tells you that "everything will be ok", but her music actually makes you believe it, even when the lyrics hint at doubt.
