lyrics

invited for drinks and walked up the stairs
finding you there sitting at the bar
you know every one, you know every soul
and they are all better for knowing you

i pieced it together watching you dance
dance while you sing poetry to the ceiling
and now we are talking “panspermia”
i laugh at the name and how crazy you sound

but when you spoke of my hair and eyes and face
and said i must be from some lovely alien race

slide your hand round my ankle and inside my shoe
sitting there knee to knee humming with you
you got me fresh water each time you got up
and i thought maybe that was some kind of love

and everyone loves you so,
oh but you do not seem to know

you said you wanted someone to grow old with you
i said that anyone would do, anyone would do
except for vampires because they’re immortal
you said she could bite your neck
and make you just forget
but i’m not so sure that i’d forget

i know you’ve got questions of why i’m not around
so jumpy and startled by any sound
the sound of the future, the sound of the past
the sound of anything that says it might last

and everyone loves you so,
oh but you do not seem to know

Sure, Okay, Great.
by Levi Parham

supported by 4 fans who also own “Vampires”

Just pure Levi and guitar. Full band is great but there is just something about his voice. When his songs are distilled down to just him and the guitar, you can really feel all he puts into them. Chris Maggart
