Jason Lytle
Protected From The Rain
SXSW Festival, acoustic session, Austin, TX, March 19, 2009
............................................
Hello, my name is on my shirt pocket
I'd rather not speak right now
I'm remembering something
Most typically my dreams are dreadfully boring
Therefore I come to these places just to see the girls
With hair like hers
With clothes like she wore
With smells like hers
With handwriting like hers
You wrote me little letters
And you brought me lunch that time at my work
And that poem you left on my windshield
Wrapped in plastic to protect it from the rain
Protected from the rain
Protected from the rain
From Signal to Snow Ratio EP, V2, 1999
Most typiiiiically my dreams are dreadfuuuully booooring!!
What a lyric.

thanks for posting - love this song. it's quite gratifying that jason lytle obviously rates it as well to keep playing it all this time on from 'signal...' i once read, dunno if it's true, that this was one of a number of songs he wrote for friends as christmas presents when he was broke. would probably seem an intimately weird present on christmas day; but a brilliant one over time.
