Fleet Foxes - He Doesn't Know Why

Penniless and tired, with your hair grown long

I was looking at you there and your face looked wrong

Memory is a fickle siren song

I didn't understand

In the gentle light as the morning nears

You don't say a single word of the last two years

Where you were when you reached the frontier

I didn't understand, no

See your rugged hands and a silver knife

Twenty dollars in your hand makes you hold so tight

All the evidence of your vagrant life

My brother you were born

And you will try to do what you did before

Pull the wool over your eyes

For a week or more

Let your family take you back to your original mind

There's nothing I can do

There's nothing I can do

There's nothing I can say

There's nothing I can say

I can say

Fleet Foxes - Blue Ridge Mountains

Light up with me my dear,

Light up.

Under stormy night, tell nobody.

My brother where do you intend to go tonight?

I heard that you missed your connecting flight,

to the blue ridge mountains, over near Tennessee.

You're ever welcome with me any time you like,

Let's drive to the country side, leave behind some green-eyed look-a-likes,

So no one gets worried, no.

So no one gets worried, no.

But Sean don't get callous,

I'm sure it'll be fine.

I love you, I love you,

Oh brother of mine.

In the quivering forest,

Where the shivering dog rests,

I will do it grandfather,

Wilt to wood and end.

And the river got frozen,

And the hole got snowed in,

And near the moon glow ride,

Till the morning light.

Terrible am I child?

Even if you don't mind,

In the quivering forest,

Where the shivering dog rests,

I will do it grandfather,

Wilt to wood and end.

And the river got frozen,

And the hole got snowed in,

And near the moon glow ride,

Till the morning light.

Terrible am I child?

Even if you don't mind,

No.
