Seek and Hide (feat. Colin Meloy)

I fell in love last year

It's not a thing I do a lot

Pack up all my lonely habits and give it all I got

And when the winter came

I thought I would be different but I'm not

I'm just the same old sorry kettle calling blackest pot

You gotta watch it all change

You gotta watch it all stay the same

I walk the morning shore

To see what pieces I can find

Glue them all together, make a sailor's valentine

My house is empty now

I know I should feel sorry but I'm fine

I've got another losing, lagging paper clock to wind

And watch it all change

And watch it all stay the same

This little city has the winter on it's side

Took one last chance to seek and hide

It's hiding still

And if you make it back to visit you will see

I will be waiting patiently

You know I will

To watch it all change

And watch it all stay the same

Once upon any time

If you had asked me where I'd be

I would have said unlocking every door with any key

Those dreams are funny now

And go ahead and laugh because they're free

Oh to the kindest home that I can find on Allen Street

And watch it all change

And watch it all change

And watch it all stay the same

I fell in love last year

It's not a thing I do a lot
