lyrics
The sun has hardly warmed the water
When it crashes on the sand
You hoped it would be warmer, you say
Pulling out your hand
The warmer water gets
The more the oceans expand
You told me first and then
I didn't really understand
If I could turn back time
I would and I’d be good
I would always be kind
To you, to you
You say look at this the world still spins
And beauty will never go
It was there before, will be there more when there’s no I to behold
How suitable, you the buoy
Your arms like silver fins
Your head afloat the golden glow
Of waves crashing in
If I could make this last
Take more of this moment
Trade in some of my past
You swim, you swim
You in it all and letting it all in

Alvvays has always been great, but with this album they took it to the next level. Every one of these songs is lodged in my brain now, permanently (in a good way). s. moxley
