Fences (The Heat)

I want sunny days
But I can’t take the heat
And I want to dance all night long
But I got two left feet
So won’t you take me out
And show me how to use my senses
Shake me out
A rookie caught in his defenses
But when I break out
I’m swinging for the fences
I made friends with the clock
It seems I’ve got the touch
We both got two hands
That don’t get used for much
So won’t you take me out
And show me how to use my senses
Shake me out
A rookie caught in his defenses
But when I break out
I’m swinging for the fences
I can’t take the heat
I can’t take the heat
I can’t take the, I can’t take the heat
No, I said I can’t take the heat
You’re a sunny day
Fair and fresh and fine
You’re everything I need
I just wish you were mine
So won’t you take me out
And fill these cracks before they’re trenches
Shake me out
I got no need for consequences
‘Cause when I break out
I’m jumping all these fences
I can’t take the heat
I can’t take the heat
I can’t take the, I can’t take the heat
Take the heat
Take the
I can’t take the heat, no

[Jonah]
Little lives here in my pocket
That I must have lived
When I was a wall
I take them out, send them all rolling
‘Cause now I’m a bridge
That stands twice as tall
I love the love I know
The world was shape-shifting
I thought I might too
While I was waiting for you
[Martina]
Little loves here at my window
That came in a flash
And stayed just as long
The forest fires clearing my heart out
They only left ash
Love only felt wrong
I love the love I see
I lived for the moment
What else could I do?
While I was waiting for you
[Both]
Little trees here on these hillsides
That used to be bare
I used to not care
Nowadays everything’s growing
When you’re standing there
It’s almost unfair
I love the love we feel
It’s every long shot I knew wouldn’t come true
While I was waiting for you

This album means so much to me. The journey feels timeless. I uncover deeper truths every listen. Thank you so much for sharing your creativity with us, you've really created a masterpiece. I love Out There, it's great that everyone has a part in the finale, but crystal goblin's lament is such a close 2nd. I love everything about it.

Cried. Quick story: I had learned my dog passed at 12 years old right before hearing the last two songs of this album (this was before the comeback) and needless to say the combination of Gentle Light and HBIM did me in for quite the emotional experience. It didn't help that the first line of HBIM is "Sorry Charlie", my dog's name. So yeah, cried. Thanks for this and all the albums and everything else y'all give us

Rundgren-esque rock with big hooks and a hint of the baroque, recommended for fans of Jon Brion and post-Kill Rock Stars Elliott Smith.

This is the most dense with jams in my opinion (if you count Debutant Ball as the finale (actually that's not true, Ratless Randy's is unapologetically a whole ass bop)) Missed opportunity in Dragon Me To This Wedding to name Nara's husband Alfred so the priest could say "Alfred, oh, will you marry Nara?" Other than that genuinely flawless album
