We Get Old
We used to go out in the snow
When we felt the urge to go
With every passing season we get old
The tricks we used to play
In the snow where I would lay
Made a promise…

So you feel like singing
All your friends say you'll go far

Walking through fields in winter

The path that leads to the river
Crosses over the lea

The lyrics for this song were inscribed on the headstone when the legendary character Tom Thumb died. Inge did the vocals for this song and did a wonderful job. The harmonies, along with the a capella intro and coda, are hers, and take the song…

When you sat in all the cheap seats
With the money that you paid
I recall the optimism
Then the contempt that you displayed
I had nothing to say to you
On the day you lied
When they had to clear the harbour
To drain the sewage that was there…

It's six in the morning but it feels like it's ten

It was your answer, your bounty, your prayer
You consumed more than you were aware

Don't refrain
Have no regrets
You've made your choice
On how it ends
And this is what you want to say

We’ll have to bear
Our testimony has to withstand…

each time I’d look at you
I was looking for a breakthrough
some emptied sigh, some reasons why

reckless provisions for some blooming vine

Another strictly me-and-an-acoustic track. Mostly about a kind-of-unstable girl I knew way back before I knew better.
Now I know better! Good closer.
