Song call- Sean Watkins, "Let It Fall"

http://s37.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=17ADQWRCMNYX734ZKXAWOS7LFP .wma format, I'm afraid. But most things will play it, so whatever.

So, continuing with today's theme of waaaaangst, I love this song. I love this song so much, I can't stop listening to it. Whenever I put on the CD, I have to pause and replay track two at least five times before I can move on to the rest of the album. No lie. I just listened to it for about an hour straight, and it's not much longer than three minutes. I love this song. In case you couldn't tell, I'm a little bit obsessed with Autumn, and this is my theme song for the months of October and November. Unlike most halfway moody music, "Let It Fall" always makes me feel better after listening to it, which is good, because I can't stop.

Lyrics:

Hey look, I'm not weighed down
As I walk through
The glowing wheat fields churning on the ground
As all the ravens fly away
They leave nothing
But the sun and endless blue day

I always knew I felt this way
But couldn't find the time to say
To myself I've got to let it go
Through all the joy and all the pain
With the drought and the rain
The honest truth is all I want to know

Let it fall
Let go

My kingdom's walls have fallen down
But I know that
I don't wear an undeserved crown
And though it seemed to fit me well
Underneath it
I would certainly fall down

Last summer we left things unsaid
That should be now a long time dead
And now it seems that time has put it well
The words can chase away a friend
But to a lie they'll bring an end
And throw it down the darkest, deepest well

Let it fall
Let go

Let it fall
Let go

Let it fall
Let go

Let it fall
Let go
-Sean Watkins, "Let It Fall"
