lyrics

Realize knowing beauty echoes in the bedside table
Rambles by a corner back street bar
It’s stupid and ugly
it’s all in
It’s hiding in soft lighting downtown in second looks across these crowded rooms
Do you still sigh at the Red River dive where I knew it in you?

Midnight haunted parked cars with your sister
and she’s lying there listening
You’re wiping breath off windows with your palm
and confessing that no one hears you, or sees you with their real eyes
No one loves you without asking anymore
Do you still sigh at the Red River dive where we smoked indoors?
Honey, you realize since that night, you’ve been keeping score?

Must have passed a test then
Suddenly a faded photograph
Always with me. Dressed up, whistling
I’m not naive

Opening night jitters, insisting that you walk home alone
The rain’s wrapping the river’s red shore now
and I’m anxious, I’m twitching
A landmine and your twisted ankle leads you downstream
An anchor lets you watch the river move, and I’m watching
(I’m watching) you walk up, running up the stairs in the park in heels
Making a wish on a pick at the fountain in Rome
Do you still sigh at the Red River dive when you’re walking home?
Honey, you realize since that night under beacon glow there’s a spit-stained block of the sidewalk where my weak spot shows?

Must have passed a test then
Suddenly a faded photograph
Always with me. Dressed up, whistling
I’m not naive

about

Brewster New Jersey

Brewster's 'Honey Shake Me' is an album of transit, a collection of highway songs - there's a "welcome to" state sign at every track break. White lines and stop signs beating a steady rhythm as the nation metls and warps, like a vinyl copy of "This Land is Your Land" left on the dashboard.

They're a stone-cold, wide-armed band, welcoming any and all twangy, emotive music to gather under the tent.
