There's not a thing that I'd rather do than sing a song for u

Get in formation The diamond is formin' Now be patient You're waitin' For your moment The smell of leather on the air And the sunbeams Buddy doesn't really care Pickin' Daisies His head is in a cloud Full of daydreams Will he ever come down And join his team In the outfield Now he's praying for the lack of a pop fly The ball is gonna catch you in the eye It cracks off the bat watch it whizz by Later Buddy wonders Why he didn't try at all Are we done yet The game will wrap up Any minute So, take in the sunset While light permeates the sky In a bright red It's just splendid Yeah It seems it's Just Buddy that's noticed Are you upset? He's not upset Does it even really matter If you catch it or not? Can't you just appreciate The things that you've caught? So, if you go compete today Well, give it a thought What have I caught? So much What have I caught? So much Yeah What have I caught? So much What have I caught? So much Yeah What have I caught? Buddy wonders Why he didn't try at all Where were his eyes When they should've been On the ball

Lightwind 02:29
Light the fire Watch the spark Watch ember rise Meet the star shine Down, on the ash Did you ask Did you say that? Heard you say I feel a lightwind blowin' Do you feel a lightwind blowin'? I feel a lightwind blowin' Do you feel a lightwind blowin'? I feel a lightwind blowin' Do you feel Do you feel it? Feed the flame Feel your fate Watch amber eyes Meet the sunrise Now, rise so fast Day has past Now we're past that It's in the past It's in the past Do you feel a lightwind blowin'? I feel a lightwind blowin' Do you feel a lightwind blowin'? I feel a lightwind blowin' Do you feel, Do you feel it?

Lightyears 04:16
Doggies paddlin' on the river Ralphie paddled a little too far Momma's calling, "Daisy, go get your brother" But she won't listen anymore 'Cause Daisy's addled by the weather She took off chasin' a baby blue car Baby boy well we could run together Outta breadth, no distance is too far With the sun so bright No, we don't listen right The wind ruffling patterns in her fur Daisy run until it burns Momma's prattle is a distant burr But Daisy's off Not listening to her Now Ralphie's caught up in a glimmer It's a little too bright to see the stars Maybe just light dancin' off the water Or a spaceship touching down on mars Would you believe me if I said We were floating in the depths And how away from Earth we leapt And now we cannot Catch our breath With no oxygen except For what we took with In our chests And now for lightyears we project And now for this is why we wept Although you must expect That this they will accept 'Cause Daisy's off into the void She's bringin' with her favorite toy For eons now she holds her breath And even now she holds her head up And even now she holds her head up And even now she holds her head up And even now she holds her head up My oh my how the lightyears sped up

Look Out 04:20
Look out Look up Look into yourself Discover what lies within Come in Come out Don't keep it to yourself So timid, you're so quiet But I know He's in there He's a big old black bear And I know He's tired Of entangled iron So run in Run out Begin to excel Embark on new beginnings again Stand up Stand out And go give 'em hell Be different be defiant 'Cause I know He's in there He's a big old black bear And I'm told To Beware His big brown eyed stare His big brown eyed stare His big brown eyes Well, bear? Wontcha come out to play? Bare feet in the sand and the clay I'll care for you at the end of the day On the air, hear 'em blowin' away Don't you listen to what they say I'll love you anyway I love you I'll love you anyway I'll care for you at the end of the day I'll love you anyway I'll care for you at the end of the day I'll love you anyway I'll care for you at the end of the day I'll love you anyway I'll care for you Bear because I love you

Smile 03:56
Spruce or Cedar I'll take either Evergreen on the front lawn I'm a bird feeder A people pleaser A smile is all I really want Follow me down C'mon, come around See what I'm workin' on Simple pleasures As light as feathers So load my shoulders up And brush your shoulders off Fresh air breathin' Fresh food feedin' A smile aglow under the sun With the leaves leavin' Our hearts beatin' Affectionate and full of love Draw your smile on My little pick me up Draw your smile on My little pick me up Embracing just enough Dismiss the needless stuff We don't need all the fuss Just Sweep it under the rug Yea A smile aglow under the sun

Do I Sing in my sleep? Forget how to breathe? Where does my head go? In the seam of the street Amidst the cars where they meet The willow? For you willows weep And their leaves fall discreet Amassing and gathering below Where I rest my head And I'm stuck up for breath That I borrowed Where you rob me of sleep And you Sing through my dream Till tomorrow Mornin' Till tomorrow Yea Now you Sing in my sleep Now you're Singin' 2 me Now it's your melody It leaves me breathless and free Free

about

Dusty Forever Saint Paul, Minnesota

Desmond Lawrence’s alternative folk-rock project. His linear song structures guide you through vivid yet dreamlike stories, such as a dog’s experience with space exploration or a daydreaming kid stuck out in left field. Hazy yet firm vocals paired with an emphasis on ambience and textural instrumentals, Dusty Forever’s music is a warm invitation to cozy up and immerse yourself in the sound. ... more
