Hear the bells
Beneath the waves
Among the ruins
And the graves
Out in the oaks
Under the pines
Anchor and moon
Pulling the tides
Once Again
I was the keeper
Of the boundary land
I lost my way
In the stones and sand
He promised a kiss
For the one who waits
While the sea swept in
Through the open gates
Once Again
They called me drunkard
They called my name
And they still curse me
In the wind and rain
It was my fault
But it was my fate
And the sea will sweep in
Through the open gate
Once again
And though the road
Was paved with gold
It was only his hand
I wanted to hold
You'll see the faces
Upon the coins
But you'll find the well
In the water, boys
Once again
They called me drunkard
They called my name
And they still curse me
In the wind and rain
It was my fault
But it was my fate
And the sea will sweep in
Through the open gate
Once again

A very clever songwriter and an album that bears many, many repeat listens. Worth the price for the Little Feat reference (in Tehachapi) alone, but it's her way with an image that sticks longest. "You left the building in a flurry / Had your boots on in the house." Caoimhín
If you have a fondness for expertly wrought roots-rock with sharp lyrics and aching vocals, look no further—“Strangers” is for you. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 8, 2022

This album can transport you to a fun place with Leon Bridges singing and Khruangbin supporting him with their fantastic music. I love everything about this vinyl and am so glad I got the lunar press! Thank you all so much! Michelle May
