This song was written by The Concretes. I found one of their EPs in a trash can in Seattle and took it home where it sat on my shelf for a year. Without ever listening to it, I listed it on Ebay where it promptly sold for $50. I was so astounded by the price it went for I finally put it in my CD player only to find I now regretted having to sell it…
lyrics
under your leaves I laid
with wishes you'd call my name
and bring me to you well
so my thirst no longer is
you know I'll do anything for you
bring singing birds to your crown
climb to the very top of you
though I might fall
but one day I must go
to get myself a warmer coat
I'll promise I'll be back real soon
back under your leaves again

The Graze is easily my favorite band in Seattle. Louis O'Callahan's writing style is right up my alley, it doesn't do him justice to say but he could be Kurt Cobain and Jeff Mangum's bastard child. The Way It Is
My Seattle friends Levi and Casey are two of the most talented musicians I know. Check out this wonderful album written and recorded in one weekend... The Way It Is
