Track 4 of Dog Catcher by Leftmore

lyrics

I wanna be a slow fire.
Not too hot, but always brighter
than all of the others, than all of your worries;
so, when shit gets heavy, you'll know where to find me.
I wanna be open
like a drugstore whenever you need some.
Stronger than Valium, and stronger than Lithium;
so, when it gets heavy, you can fly right to me.
I wanna be that light switch that never goes off,
or that tight skirt that never stays on.
I wanna be the gardener or the painter of your daydreams,
so, when shit gets heavy, we already made our scene.
I wanna be with you in the mornings
kissing your eyelids and thinking of breakfast.
I want you there catching me so selfish
for all of my staring, well, I can't help it.
I've written lots of lines, not many for you yet.
Just give me some time and I'll give you my best.
I want you to go wherever you'll go,
just don't be an island, let me be your coast.
Oh, I could be your ocean, just let me get close!
You could sail the seas and I'd keep you afloat.
I wanna be near you tasting the salt,
uncorking the bottles from letters you wrote.
Just let me get close. Just let me get close!
I wanna be your coast.
Just let me get close. Just let me get close!
I wanna be your coast.
I wanna be the heat in your coffee,
or the sugar, dissolving.
I wanna be a slow fire
burning bright so you'll know where to find me.

about

Leftmore Denver, Colorado

Leftmore is an indie acoustic rock act from Colorado, started in 2005 by Matthew Shaw and Joe Ziegler. Joe went solo from late in 2009 to early in 2014, one part story-teller, one part emotive melody, and at least one part human. Matt rejoined with Chris Doxtator on drums and Geoff Brent on bass guitar. The lineup now vacillates between the solo, duo, and quartet conditionally based on time-space. ... more
