Sylvia

Listen to "Sylvia" on our Facebook page.

Smile, Sylvia
I don’t know when I’ll love again
But smile as you fly around the planet smile
As you count another year
Smile, Sylvia
The books I’ve read will come again
Alive, curious and waiting to be
Know your letters A to Z
Baby

Life, Sylvia
Won’t be so bad, won’t be so sad
Life if you stop and play in the middle of strife
If you sing a song when something’s awry
Sing

If they hurt you no matter how they try
If they push you there’s no need to comply
Turn the world upside down
And then you’ve found it
Go to sleep and

Smile, Sylvia
I don’t know when I’ll love again
But smile as you fly around the planet smile
As you count another year
Smile, baby, smile

"Marcher, what's that song about?"

Glad you asked. It's based on the Henry James novella The Beast in the Jungle.

Dead Parents

Listen to "Dead Parents" on our Facebook page! Russ is the lead singer, with Molly and Steven on backup.

I met you the night that both your parents had died
You leaned into me and told me that you'd never cry
And all that you ever needed, you had inside
I have to admit, it certainly sounded like lies

Chorus:

All I needed to know
And all I had left to show
Was the look in your eyes
Was the dream in your mind
And I wanted to be
And I wanted to see
All that you are
All that you were
Wanted you more
Than I know who you are
You are the heart
You are the land
The only girl
That I could stand

I was lonely on my own
You're the only one I phoned
Deep in my heart I was calling out for your love
So I wandered the streets until I had had enough

(Chorus)

You're the one who got this right
All we have is one more night
You and me and the out of sight
All we have is one more night to get it right

You were always on your own
But when I called up, no one's home
Nobody loves you like I said that I would
Nobody loves that, nobody could

(Chorus)
