This is the first single off of the album Distant Dissonance (pending release later this year). This song was recorded live at the Historic Strauss Mansion Museum.

lyrics

dear dorine,

the world is at war
do you recall where you were when it wasn't?
dear dorine, melancholy child
they’ll remind you
of silver linings and always smiling
though it all does seem to go wrong

dear dorine,

it doesn’t seem fair
but you’ll reflect on it all as much smaller
find your resolve, ink it over and swear
to remember always, always remember
you’ll be okay if you learn to paddle your own canoe
dear dorine,
i’m yours ’til you tear it out
i’m yours ’til you tear it out

dear dorine,
you should remember always, always remember
you’ll be okay if you learn to paddle your own canoe
dear dorine,
i’m yours ’til you tear it out

dear dorine,
you’re askin’ for it
when you kiss a boy under his nose
things turn upside down
dear dorine,
though you were beguiled
right there beneath the garden gate
love is blind but the neighbors ain't
love is blind but the neighbors ain't
love is blind but the neighbors ain't
love is blind but the neighbors ain't

you should remember always, always remember
you’ll be okay if you learn to paddle your own canoe
dear dorine,
I’m yours ’til you tear it out
I’m yours ’til you tear it out
