april winds blue labyrinth
and grasping green black fantasy
within your eyes i realize
i thought i loved you madly
but it was only a dream
i thought i loved you madly
but it was only a dream (x2)
your eyes reflect the glory
gleaming joy i found in you, see
your eyes reflect the glory
gleaming joy i thought i found in you
i thought i loved you madly
but it was only a dream
i thought i loved you madly
but it was only a dream
see i want love
in the form of him
and i want him
more than i'll admit
left unsure of his intentions
i'm left awaiting our first kiss (x2)

thought i was in love
with the boy round the corner
with smilin eyes
then i looked up one day
you were struttin my way
came to realize
that it wasn't love
oh it wasn't love
no not at all
no it wasn't love
no it wasn't love
no not at all
oh i wonder will love
creep into my mornin
not for the moment
but til the end of all time (x2)

oh it wasn't love

came to realize
oh this could be love
oh it could be love
cause i want it all
oh this could be love
oh this could be love
cause i want to give you
give you my all
oh i wonder will love
creep into my mornin
not for the moment
but til the end of all time (x2)
oh it could be love
oh it could be love
cause I want it all

remember the season of abandoning pain
season sweet as jamaican nutmeg
rotting flowers are all that remain
cause we're all just a breath from
death anyway
do you remember me?
cause i remember you
(oh, i do. swear i do)
Do you remember the season of abandoning pain
season sweet as jamaican nutmeg
rotting flowers are all that remain
cause we're all just a breath from
death anyway
it's just a keepsake
do you remember me?
cause i remember you

Force Majeure
by Dezron Douglas & Brandee Younger
supported by 5 fans who also own “keepsake (ep)”
This could’ve been my album of the year if I’d noticed it. Hell. 2020, feeling like shit and then this musical balm appears. Live recording on one mic. Just bass and harp. Awesome. It swings like a pendulum do! Big shout out for Dezron’s love of coffee. I now have 2 of his albums and he’s proselytising on behalf of coffee on both. Damn right ☕️
