about

Unlike the scenic Taconic State Parkway, some relationships are one-way. This is one of the first songs I wrote for the album, surprising myself with the dark direction it took. I had been in a long-term relationship that seemed to be going well, but when I listened back to the demo, I heard frustration, stunted intimacy, and betrayal. Musically, I was inspired by the rockabilly momentum of Old 97’s, and when Damon layered on the Molina-esque slide guitar over it, I knew we were cooking.

lyrics

How you gonna go and introduce me as your friend
when I'm the greatest love of your life?
Thought we'd be together for a million days
was I wrong or just not right?

Midnight full of cabernet
fat chance that I’ll ever stay
I'm a light light light light weight in your eyes
I'ma wait wait wait wait while you change your mind

Steering New York City like your own private car
you were buying more than just time
There’s gonna be many a night in your life
you’ll be wishing that you had my light

A line means no
I know Morse code

Midnight full of cabernet
fat chance that I’ll ever stay
I'm a light light light light weight in your eyes
I'ma wait wait wait wait while you change your mind, oh

The mansion was haunted
I took the Taconic
I wish we were on it
just one time

My memory is water
a thief with no honor
I wish that we caught her
just one time

So what does it take for me to get close to you?
and what does that make me? a prostitute
