Here's the final track :

This is just a little ditty of a scene I saw/overheard in a cafe on the East Side. 

It was definitely a morning after. Perhaps a morning before. Likely both. 

 

Appreciate Bruce Abbott's flute which he nailed on the first pass. I wanted this version of "one note samba" and he laid it down.

 

Here's the demo, just me and the accordion : 

Lyrics

What am I supposed to do with information like this?

under the table you kick me hard

all of a sudden This

Give me a break, give me some time

to figure out what I want to make of This

I thought we talked This out

I thought the last thing you'd want was...

 

This is no surprise

This look in your eyes

This finger on my skin

as this us begins again

this simple morning giving way

to this more complicated day

this is the ache I've always missed

this kiss, this kiss

This is no surprise.

 

What am I suppose to do? You just can't seem to choose

you say your boyfriend is gorgeous now

all of a sudden...This

Give me some space, give me some room

to out-maneuver your tricky heart like...This

I thought you said last time

that that would be the last last time

 

This is no surprise

this look in your eyes

this finger on my skin

as this us begins again

this simple morning giving way

to this more complicated day

this is the ache I've always missed

this kiss, this kiss, This is no surprise

this sleepy look in your eyes

you linger on my skin

as this fuss begins again

is this us beginning again?

or is this just the beginning

of another end?

 

I don't care much right now.
