about

The first single off of the new album, "The Warmth".

lyrics

All my things are packed in boxes
Stacked along the walls
Of a room that’s getting smaller by the hour
I’ve emptied out my desk of
All my childhood memories
The days when we thought we were tall
From sitting on our mothers’ knees, now
All my things are packed in boxes
But I won’t forget where they came from

Because those old clothes ain’t my size
But that little kid’s alive, he’s just got older eyes
I keep singin' "oooh"
I play the part, but
When I’m in that house, you know
I’m right back at the start

What a funny way it is, I
Keep the strangest things
To remind myself of days when we were young
Baseball gloves and trading cards
Tattered, worn with age
Wishful thinking told me that they
Still my find a use someday, but
What a funny way it is
The way we think when we are young

Someday soon, these
Faces will be gone, just
Phantoms in a fog, but the
Houses stay the same, lined in
Perfect rows down Lincoln Avenue

But there’s a method that I’ve got to try
Though the youth inside my bones may wonder why
I’ll leave this place behind and store
The memory in my mind
A home to call my own is just the
Step to feeling a better kind of fine

Now all my things are packed in boxes
Stacked along the walls of a
Room that’s getting smaller by the hour
