lyrics
I can’t let my baby be
Tried to turn him to a shape
That would fit well with me
Now my baby’s all alone
Ever since I up and gone
I can’t let my baby be
I can’t let my baby sleep
I wake him in the wee small hours
Of the morning breeze
Or I’d choke up on the tears
Like a faucet without gears
I can’t let my baby sleep
“How do you leave behind a love that hasn’t died?”
He says to me and frowns
And I can’t let my baby down
I can’t let my baby down
Easy
I can’t let my baby drown
If he sinks below the line of sight
I best be bound
To a life in debt
To sadness and regret
I can’t let my baby drown
“How do you leave behind a love that hasn’t died?”
He says to me and frowns
And I can’t let my baby down
I can’t let my baby down
Easy
Where do I go if I got no road ahead
Where do I hide
If I can’t find nothing to stand behind
‘Cause I can’t find nothing to stand behind
I can’t let my baby leave
If he’s gone I won’t go on
Knowing how to believe
That love’s some kind of dancer
If you call it’ll answer
I can’t let my baby leave
Helps me sleep and also helps me stay awake. When I discovered Big Thief I listened to a lot of their music for a very long time, so it felt right to buy this lovely album. Makes me feel comfort I didn't know existed. Makes me want to scream in all the ways you'd ever scream, lots of emotion. b1rbbbbb
Always finding albums like this that I wish I discovered years ago. Love, love, love this, from the simple arrangements to the Bond theme and screams of 'I know the end'. BikeBoy29
Gorgeous and moving, this album fills a musical void in my collection that I didn't know existed. With lyrics that speak about the human condition and instrumentals that have a medieval flair, this has become my new musical addiction 😁 Not a single note is wasted here RMM79
“Write The Soil Lighter” is full of beguilingly mysterious folk-adjacent music, shrouded in shadow and atmospherics. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 30, 2023
The slow, every-building feeling of quiet menace in "Robber" is deeply unsettling and utterly unforgettable. But every song on this album just *glows*. I can't recommend it highly enough. Saint Aardvark
