lyrics

I was waiting in the parking lot
All dressed up and hoping for
Some spark to cut the night
Sweet and hot like neon lights

Take me someplace I’ve never been

You make me nervous and you make me smile
I get confused and I forget just why
I came down here

Sometimes I forget to take a breath
Treading water way out of my depths
I’m out to sea and I might float away

Take me someplace I’ve never been
Baby I’m ready for the real thing

Always say we’re gonna shoot the moon
In the middle of the afternoon you get a new tattoo
With the fingers crossed

Let us be lucky
Let us not sink back
And get lost

Take me someplace I’ve never been
Baby I’m ready for the real thing

Old Country
by Andrea von Kampen

supported by 5 fans who also own “The Real Thing”

The whole album is awesome. But I gravitated first toward "Portland". Then "Wildwood Flower" because I'm familiar the 10,000 Maniacs cover. Very different; AVK's is very contemplative. Jameson Calantoc
