Adrianne Lenker Free Treasure Lyrics
Do you wanna go to the river? I know this spot so deep and green
With wild raspberries and apple trees, and rocks to climb between
Water like a washing machine
Do you wanna dance? Sometimes I think I try too hard
I trip on my shoes and I trip on my shirt, get caught on the dirt in the yard
Caught on the dirt in the yard
You show me
Understanding, patience and pleasure
Time and attention, love without measure
Love without measure
You’re cookin’ dinner, it’s gettin’ round half-past-ten
I haven’t smelled food so good since I don’t know where and I don’t know when
Where and I don’t know
Stove light glows like a fire, we’re sittin’ on the kitchen floor
Just when I thought I couldn’t feel more, I feel a little more
I feel a little
Understanding, patience and pleasure
Time and attention, love without measure
Love without measure
There’s a guy on the nape of my neck and he hangs out there all day
He quantifies my every thought and tells me not to play
He tells me not to play
We lay around for hours, talk about childhood pain
Mom and dad and past lives too, I can tell you anything
I can say anything
You show me
Understanding, patience and pleasure
Time and attention, love without measure
Love without measure
Show me
Understanding, patience and pleasure
The eleventh dimension, free treasure
Free treasure
Free treasure
