about

A love song, about a traveler whose newfound affection leads him realize his weariness, and to cut ties with the road and the sea, in favor of laying in the arms of his lover.

lyrics

Her eyes are like wheels,
Rolling at me, constantly;
I was, rolling along with three tires, I was so tired,
I came; came off the road.
Came off the road, went straight to your abode

And I could spend all afternoon,
Doing nothing in particular,
I'll just wrap myself in you.
I could spend all afternoon, here;
Til out comes the moon.

Like an ocean surrounds,
You're like an island, I was searching for solid ground.
Came into your harbor, I was harboring a criminal;
But I kept that to myself;
Til I, laid down my anchor,
Burned all my sails, there's no need to go sailing no more.

And I could spend all afternoon,
Doing nothing in particular,
I'll just wrap myself in you.
I could spend all afternoon, here;
Til out comes the moon.
I could spend all afternoon,
Doing nothing in particular,
I'll just wrap myself in you.
I could spend all afternoon, here;
Til out comes the moon.

My mood changes with the weather,
Whether you like it or not,
Sometimes good weather is all you've got.
There's a cold persistent rain,
That's when she hands me an umbrella,
Yes, I'm such a lucky fella,

And I could spend all afternoon,
Doing nothing in particular,
I'll just wrap myself in you.
I could spend all afternoon, here;
Til out comes the moon.
I could spend all afternoon,
Doing nothing in particular,
I'll just wrap myself in you.
I could spend all afternoon, here;
Til out comes the moon.

about

Hunter Gatherer image

Hunter Gatherer Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin

Hunter Gatherer has a vintage vibe marrying catchy melodious tunes and resonant lyrics. His large and unique sound demands attention, and is difficult to tie down in terms of genre. Call it what you will: alt-mericana, indie-folk, gothic country; at the end of the day, all that matters is whether or not the song is worth listening to. ... more
