Eve and Me
This one is a wrap! Listen along to the song, such beautiful music and lyrics by Calvin Rezen. https://youtu.be/HSQMe4eax7A
This art came easily to me... lots of symbolic imagery and color here: circles, clocks, time, a bird's eye view of a glass of gin and tonic; A bouncing red apple (see "Adam and Eve".) Plus invasion of space/thought. Forced realization, angst, regret, longing, possibility, joy...
Here are the lyrics again.
Eve and Me
By Calvin Rezen The one that got away is a friend of a friend I should’ve known I see you again Ohh Ohh Oh I walked into their house, you were there on the couch Confessions falling out of my mouth I knew that you were friends with my friends I should’ve known I see you again Oh Oh Oh Long time, No see Time has changed me You're still lovely as you’ve ever been But different I’m sitting there, wishing my words weren’t vomiting chronically sipping a gin and platonically Whithering, weighing the pros and the cons Of a kiss With a girl I don’t know anymore Oh oh oh A girl I don’t know anymore Oh oh oh A girl I don’t know anymore I wrote you into Genesis attempting to explain How even love as god intended it (invented) was bound to die in vain I even reckoned with dissolving our hereditary chain Cause I was flawed and fucked and out of luck with bruises on my brain But I am changed ... and learning how a cynic can be tamed Outrunning my inherent catholic shame I know that things won’t ever be the same but I should say It didn’t hit me when you kissed me but all those years ago You must’ve planted something in me and its taken time to grow And now the branches wrap around, And the fruit they bare astounds me And I think about you most days And I thought that you should know So much I wanted you to know Turn the clocks back Take it from scratch Picking apples from forbidden trees Just Eve and me I’m sitting there, wishing my words weren’t vomiting, chronically sipping a gin and platonically Whithering, weighing the pros and the cons Of a kiss With a girl I don’t know anymore Oh oh oh A girl I don’t know anymore Oh oh oh A girl I don’t know anymore
