LYRICS
Well I sang row, row your boat into my lover's ear
And that's how our love got around
But now I'm 6 states south of Minnesota
And I'm hoping her love will stick around
And the phone can connect us through the days we have left,
But it can rarely keep us entertained
And I can tell by her tone, she's getting tired of being alone,
And there's not much I can do from here

This is the rise and the fall,
I miss you girl that's all

So we loved from a distance but it started to seem,
Like we kept it around just to be
A fallback so I asked "love me forever,"
That's when she stopped calling me
So now I'm stranded and lonely, newly single, and sad,
Writing songs to her old photographs
Cause it's still her I love, and it's tearing me up, that she left, and she left,
And she took, and she took, my first real love and turned it upside down

This is the rise and the fall,
I miss you girl that's all



"Songs In Simple Places" is my new video series featuring small intimate performances in everyday, non-traditional venues. Like stairwells.

Special thanks to Lisa for filming!
