lyrics
you and i both know
there is nothing more to say
chance has shut her shining eyes
and turned her face away
leaning on the windowsill
you could write me someday and i think you will
we could see the sadness as a gift and still
feel too heavy to hold
snow fallin’
i try to keep from callin’
watch the spring turn to winter
fireflies all frozen
the seasons go so fast
thinking that this one was gonna last
maybe the question was too much to ask
been searching for your eyes
all I see is blue sky
and that old man beats his crooked cane
it’s time to let go
leaning on the windowsill
you could write me someday and i bet you will
we could see the sadness as a gift and still
the seasons go so fast
thinking that this one was gonna last
maybe the question was too much to ask
you and I could see into the same eternity
every second brimming with a majesty
kiss so sweet so fine
you could hear the music inside my mind
and you showed me a place i’ll find even when i’m old
just leaning on the windowsill
you could write me someday and i hope you will
we could see the sadness as a gift and still
the seasons go so fast
thinking that this one was gonna last
maybe the question was too much to ask

she rly feels like a once-in-a-lifetime talent to me

@gierasole

I know not many people will read this, and fewer still will pay it kind, but I want you to know that I'm glad you're here together with me. I'm feeling a little lonely myself, but leaving this comment helps me feel more connected, to Adrianne, and to the people who listen to their music. thank you for being you, thank you for being human. the sun rises again and we meet another day.

just a small observation, but with adrianne's lyrics it's the small details that are the most poignant. the way that over the course of the song the chorus changes from "you could write me someday and i think you will" to "i bet you will" and finally "i hope you will" just fucking destroys me every time

@Dovelunalove

Adrienne Lenker is my Mother & Sufjan Stevens is my father. My childhood is loving & gentle. But then I wake up & i’m 25.

@joed7185

Hands down the best singer-songwriter among the indie scene. Her guitar playing is criminally underrated. The Townes Van Zandt of her time.

Adrianne makes me feel happy to be alive and young right now. I've always felt displaced in time, but when I listen to her... everything feels right for a few minutes.

mother we love you

I don't know if this cured or worsened my lesbian blues all I know is that this song made me feel things. Thank you Adrienne ❤

@hollieb5084

her lyricism always blows me away. Devastating and so honest.. she encapsulates the longing, the pain and light of the human condition like so few really can

@nicolev198

“Been searching for your eyes, all I see is blue skies” gets me each and every time.

postponing my lobotomy until after this album is released

@jacksonmiked

This is a masterpiece. Up there with the very best of 60’s Bob Dylan.

@alabamaisyourdaddy6137

One of the most beautiful songs I have heard all year

@redadamearth

"Blood on the Tracks"-level writing. Stunning. And an absolutely gorgeous arrangement.

@Justaperson660

I was with this girl for a while, I've never loved anyone like I loved her. This song reminds me of her so much. We both know that theres nothing left to say. I still hope she "writes me" (texts), I was so sure she'd come back again, as the song progresses adrianne seems less and less certain that this person will write her, which is exactly how I feel. After a week without her I'm all like "yeah I think she's gonna be back", now it's been 6 months, and I hope she writes.
