lyrics

you danced up a storm in the heat of the sine waves/you hid in a forest of electric sound/you botched my irises & flipped them sideways/ we weren't meant to be together in this town/ they could load silos with our misery/ launch it into the sky and start a war/ the only moment I was ever truly happy/is when I first heard the sound of your knuckles tapping at my front door/now I don't care where you are/ cause I know it can't be far/ you gotta be in salt lake city/we bought an apartment with a view of the park/you sat in your room reading Jane Austin novels alone/I bought us a stereo and played the tune that we first danced to/ I stayed up all night waiting for you to come home/every time I wonder if you're really gone/you return-not after that long/ you gotta be in Salt Lake City/ this'l always be my little home where I'm doomed to live alone/I'll always be here in Salt Lake City/ where I won't ever find any pity/ I'm a cuckold and I'm a clown/ yeah this city is tearing me down/ I'll always be here in Salt Lake City /where no one had any love to give me/ oh I might as well have died the day/ she packed up everything and moved away/ I'll always be here in Salt Lake City

Fans of EPD note wit in his lyricism & the raw gravity of his live performances. Listeners will fall under the spell of Nashville pretty boy's ability to create garage-pop which blows a kiss at Squeeze & Harry Nilsson. ... more
