forest wlw things: a playlist

8tracks link here

1. there is a vine - connie converse  (there is a tree growing by my garden gate, and year by year, it seems to stand and wait / and here am i, beneath the tree, for i am waiting too / and oh, my love, i will always wait for you)

2. strawberry (paul beribeau cover) - babeo baggins & ian chick (i would love to find you growing wild out by the wood, and make a basket with the front of my t-shirt and take home as many of you as i could)

3. like someone in love - bjork (lately i find myself out gazing at stars, hearing guitars, like someone in love.... sometimes the things i do astound me, mostly whenever you’re around me)

4. garden - ivy sole (my chest a walking drum, the beat of sun on skin and dandelion.. the forest floor beneath my feet, the clearing up ahead must be as good as up above, the heaven hollowed like my heart... a stranger in the shadows, could be friend or could be furnace burning softly with exactly what i need)

5. iota - angel olsen (if only all our memories were one, we only had to blink and it was done.. if all the world could see it with one eye in perfect color to the perfect sky)

6. too small for eyes - mothers (i hate my body / i love your taste / bird stirring in my chest / you give and take away... restless limb, restless mind / how time will test its teeth)

7. cinnamon tree - esperanza spalding (please rub off on me so i carry a little of your auburn hue, for spice when days are dull and dreary / you bend your boughs towards me / times I'm weak and need someone to turn to, you share your flavor, ease my misery / aha, you give all that you are and just keep on growing / your fragrance lives in all who know you)

8. grow - deradoorian (your thoughts of spring, they enlighten me / i see the sense / oh, i am one declaring my love)

9. are you real - farao (are you real?)

10. the forest awakes - st. vincent (a fruit that falls before it’s grown / i hear a sound and a bird has flown / it breaks to pieces above the forest, a million particles born today.... underneath the weeping willow i can see your face)

11. dream girl - ivy sole (baby we going back to eden / we ain’t gotta take a plane, let’s be naked unashamed / feel the wind and the rain on our being / and you ain’t gotta be afraid... i don’t really see no one but you and if you asking me i kinda like the view)

12. anything we want - fiona apple (the rivulets had you riveted to the places that i wanted you to kiss me when we find some time alone, and then we can do anything we want)

13. my my my - tica douglas (i go back and forth, the wind it sways me like a tree..... but i do know that i do like her lying next to me)

14. nature - petal (i want to be made out of the nature you were born from / the breath of god breathed into dirt and dust of the art / every fiber of my being seems to scream to me, “you were once mine in a life we don’t know”)

15. strawberry blond - mitski (i love everybody because i love you / when you stood up, walked away barefoot / and the grass where you lay left a bed in your shape / i looked over it and i ached)

16. sadie - joanna newsom (down where i darn with the milk-eyed mender / you and i and a love so tender / stretched on a hoop where i stitch, this adage / bless our house and its heart so savage)
