lyrics

say that you know me

you and I wrote songs together I remember your question
why don't you sing that way when people are paying attention
we joined the county choir and you asked if it was alright
if you shouted lines from In The Pines over top the Hammersteins
and at night we climbed the silos at elm farm
you said i'm still here I said I know that you are

but if you leave I need something regardless please say
say that you know me

I got lost in the trees in the takeover weeds in the nightsongs of the birds
I'd holler out loud then hope that nobody heard
you and I went to the county fair and danced and didn't speak
and I took your hand and for a moment you held on to me
and the dark was thick and lined with dogwoods in bloom
I said you're the only one I ever wanted to sing to

so as you leave I need something regardless please say
say that you know me

I haven't seen it
but I know it's up a little bit ahead
and when I get there
honey won't I get a little bit of rest
I get so quiet
there is so much I left unsaid
and when I say it
honey won't I get a little bit of rest

and as the dark that stays beneath the widest pines the tallest trees is where I go where I need to be before you leave I need one thing regardless of what you think
please
say that you know me
