not a lot, just forever (live) Lyrics[Introduction]
Through your eyes I see
The smile you bring to me
To your joy I tether
Not a lot, just forever
I don't know how to turn this off
[Spoken: Adrianne Lenker]
Here we are
For a brief infinite moment
Together in this room, everything has led to this point
And we're together
[Audience Cheering]
[Verse 1]
Through your eyes I see
The smile you bring to me
To your joy I tether
[Chorus]
Not a lot, just forever
Intertwined, sewn together
As the rock bears the weather
Not a lot, just forever
[Verse 2]
My dog barks wildly
To protect my infancy
From my ex-believer
And I try to calm the wolf
To remind him I am both
Still, he tears at my sweater
[Chorus]
Not a lot, just forever
Intertwined, sewn together
As the wren sheds her feather
Not a lot, just forever
[Verse 3]
Your dearest fantasy
Is to grow a baby in me
I could be a good mother
And I wanna be your wife
So I hold you to my knife
And I steal your letter
[Chorus]
Not a lot, just forever
Intertwined, sewn together
As the rock wears the weather
Not a lot, just forever
[Verse 4]
So I bash around the house
And the poison stains my mouth
She comes, I let her
And we share a paradise
When I roll them once or twice
It can't get much better
[Chorus]
Not a lot, just forever
Intertwined, sewn together
As the wren sheds her feather
Not a lot, just forever
[Audience Cheering]
