lyrics

My love, could you hold up
For a minute or two
It seems all of my skipping
Has untied my shoe
But the moment these laces
Find themselves in embraces
I'll catch up to you

My dear, just a second
My legs are sore
They feel like they'll fall apart
If pushed one mile more
But if you're still marching
All the way to the shore then
I'll be seeing you real soon

Darling, my sweet
You bring only clear skies
No clouds watch you go
The sun tears up my eyes
Your's is the only shadow
I can see for miles
But it's not something I can hold

Wontcha hold me
Dontcha go
My baby's flown

She can't hold me
Her head has grown
She's on her own

Sometimes I get nervous
Sometimes my smile's fake
But with you there's something new
That makes my boots shake
But all that I had to offer was less than
You wanted to take
So I'll just leave you this note

The Ripples Washington, D.C.

Founded in 2013, The Ripples are a post-modern band that takes influence from 60s pop music, but doesn’t shy away from dipping their feet in the blues. They love playing covers and jams to excite a bar crowd and generate a great late-night pulse, but their main passion is working with their original music until all the grooves and changes sound just right. ... more
