lyrics

This is where we disappear
I was never trying to be so clear
all the days we spent getting lost in the sun
I remember me I remember you
It seems our lives were always true as we stood out on the rocks to watch it rise

Though he loved to go astray Johnny tried to look the other way
And no one came to rescue me from dawn
I keep it on the wall at face I keep myself above this place
Oh honey you could take me on tonight

You could tear down easy to fortunate ride
You could change your heart on the fourth of July
But we’ve been running since we was a child
And I’ll wait for you so we can run wild
Wild
We can run wild

about

Duquette Johnston Birmingham, Alabama

By his own admission Duquette Johnston has lived a "wild, incredible life," but even that might be underselling the three-act 25-year journey that's led to the Alabama musician's new album The Social Animals; out February 25 on Single Lock Records.

I've only owned this album for a day, but I can't get enough of it already. It's just so quiet, stunning, raw and moving. Reminds me of Nick Drake and Ryan Adams mixed in one. It's just incredible. Thank you jane willow

I'm way behind the curve on this. I thought M/L was to be a one-off project but now there's more? And it's even better than the first? YES!! J. Danner
