about

The third verse is a reflection of this whole album:

Here we go two gardens grow.
A shadow falls on the one I've always known.
Take the earth, take the water take the sun.
Take my roots, may you be someone.
I give to you.

lyrics

Wandering through this world alone
Not one thing moves my soul for long
So I move on

If there was one place I could lay my luggage down
And call home
Then it’s you and you alone

You and you alone
You and you alone
Don’t you know it’s only been me for a while
Now it’s you and you alone

Home to work, work to home, home to bed
On the weekend party instead
Oooh
I know the earth spins circles round the sun
Maybe I need someone
To burn at the center of it all

You and you alone
You and you alone
Don’t you know it’s only been me for a while
Now it’s you and you alone

I know that it’s strange
But I know that it’s real
All my dreams come crumbling down before you
And I don’t care

Here we go two gardens grow
A shadow falls on the one I’ve always known
The one I’ve always sown
Take the earth, take the rain and take the sun
Take my roots may you be someone
I give to you

You and you alone
You and you alone
Don’t you know it’s only been me for a while
Now it’s you and you alone

about

Louise Kelly Downers Grove, Illinois

Timeless. Soulful. Emotional. Colorful. Mother Nature infuses the music of Louise Kelly with the songs of birds and prairie breezes. Rooted and rising in Illinois, watered by the sounds from a cloud of Stevie Wonder, Emily King, James Blake, Chopin, Lake Street Dive, Led Zeppelin. Not hiding it under a bushel (no!) Music is light. Listen for the sunshine. And shine on, you crazy diamond. ... more
