Lyrics-
Now the night and the liquor wear off
I see your sister more clear,
Now that the sun has won the sky
Won't you sleep now, lady?
Go to sleep, baby.
No, I can't sleep now, baby...
It's true I loved her then, yes,
And you deserve far better than this mess.
It's true I told her then, forever,
But now it's you that I love always come never
Now the night and the liquor coming on
I hardly see your sister,
Now that the stars own the sky
Won't you come back, lady?
No, I won't come back, baby
For I love Rivers lately...

I like this even better than Neutral Milk Hotel. Obvious why the two are compared. I haven't purchased any new music in months, but I will buy everything Elvis Perkins has ever recorded
-
Yeah, he's amazing
-
I love this song!
-
This song is great. Very moody.
-
One of the best song of the album, which is one of the best album I ever heard.
-
yeah he really is amazing and so perfect everyone should hear of elvis perkins because he is one of the few musicians anymore who is actually somewhat poetic
