about

A romantic daydream song

lyrics

Where the ocean meets the greenery

i'll meet you in the highlands
leave your boat at the bottom and climb the rocks
and we can roam around the island
and when we're ready to go, we'll both set off

i'll come dressed for the weather
and i'll bring some extra clothes for you
and if we get cold we'll squeeze together
i'll sing a song you could fall asleep to

you bring a really good story to read
and we'll take turns saying it aloud
when we reach the climax we'll both be intrigued
and when it is over we'll both come down

i usually feel empty when a good book is through
but i don't feel empty if i'm with you
we'll talk about the plot and i'll tell you what i thought
and this will end between us when it is time to

we'll both start the fires and we'll both keep 'em going
the wind will blow up to our cliffs so high
and i would like to listen while you play a woodwind instrument
and it's okay if you make me cry

off in the distance big ships and little boats
in the swell of the waves off the coast
they watch for sea monsters, they rock upon the waters
and watch for the light to guide 'em home

people will tell you it's a far-fetched dream
and it is best if you just stay away from me
what if i told them i would give you anything
real as well as make believe

this is my daydream and i'm sharing it with you
'cause it is lovely and you are too
and if you want to meet me where the ocean meets the greenery
i'll go there and wait for you

His Young Heart EP
by Daughter

supported by 4 fans who also own “Where the Ocean Meets the Greenery”

This is the first album I found that really spoke to me as a young fem. From the simplicity, the bass drum, specifically in landfill is so steady and soothing. I love landfill because it perfectly portrays trauma bonds, sexual or romantic relationships rooted in power imbalance. Being led on, unrequited love, constantly being clueless if someone is a real friend, or a lover. Are they yours or are they ruthlessly rogue. Untameable. Love and hate are such similar feelings, and they often mingle. clementinehatepageichangedmymind

Intimate and unique. This album plays well with a bottle of Syrah crunched up in your finest pair of headphones with candles lit in a steamy bubble bath. sig
