What You're Doing

lyrics

If you talk about me always when you're with him,
did you tell him about that night we kissed?
And, do you worry about the forked tongue that I felt
feeling the same way on his lips?
And, if you think about me always when you sleep with him,
do you tell him every morning that your conscience wins.
And, do you worry about him in my side of the bed,
or is that the reason why you rarely sleep in it?

And I ask, "Do you, do you, do you, do you know?
Well, do you, do you, do you, do you know?
Well, do you, do you, do you, do you know?"

And, if you're staying with him 'cuz you're scared that things will change,
remember what you wanted that tattoo I drew to say.
And, don't you worry about me, Darlin', I've got too much love to hate,
too many pretty people, and too many stages to play.
But, if you're staying with him to push your dreams away,
remember that the sun must go down to start another day.
Don't you worry about it, Darlin', if you come back to me again,
I'll be waiting for that letter if you find a better man.

Now, I ask, "Do you, do you, do you, do you know?
Well, do you, do you, do you, do you know?
Yeah, do you, do you, do you, do you know?
Do you, do you, do you, do you know?"

Remember me, Darlin', as something like the sea.
Something timeless and ageless, though we both know that's not me.
Well, remember me, Darlin', like a happy memory.
Bring your words like "forever," and I'll meet you in that fantasy.
Yeah, remember me, Darlin', like an old, old tree.
Something that was here when you got here and still will be when you leave.

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
