Baskets

i have been writing a lot of songs on the acoustic in the last couple of months. I don't know what the next recordings will be at this point - but there is a good chance parts of it will be extremely stripped much like this. Enjoy Baskets... feedback welcome.







Baskets

We started out simple
I loved when you smiled
You loved when I sang
And maybe it was us we were fooling
we thought there was nothing
That would get in our way
But slowly we built up our worries
We stacked them between us
hoped they'd go away
now sometimes I wonder where you are
I used to know that every
second of the day

It seems that we cant find a way
To take us as simple as we came
Did we make it so complicated
that we couldnt be together anymore

I wish we could take all our worries
and put them in baskets
and wash them away
I wish we could still have those moments
Where nothing else matters
Besides you and me

It seems that we cant find a way
To take us as simple as we came
Did we make it so complicated
that we couldnt be together anymore

I will always wish the best for you
I will always wish the best for you
Even when its years since youve gone
I will always wish the best for you
I will always wish the best for you
Even when youre out on your own

I will always wish the best for you
I will always wish the best for you
Even when we dont speak for months
I will always wish the best for you
I will always wish the best for you
Even when new lovers come

I wish we could take all our worries
and put them in baskets
and wash them away

-Andrew
