Laura & The Beehive

(album: The Hum Goes On Forever - 2022)

I can barely remember it
Two or three at the time
Watering your tomato plants
I had fallen behind
I stepped on a beehive
You threw your body over mine

I just called to talk about the weather or anything you want
I just called to hear your voice; I'm sorry, I won't keep you long
'Cause I know how you ask around and worry when you hear the songs
So I just called to let you know that I'm alright, no matter what

Standing in the sunken grass
That used to be the deep end
Staring at a conch shell that
You keep in the garden
You said I could hear the ocean and I really believed it

I just called to talk about the weather or anything you want
I just called to hear your voice; I'm sorry, I won't keep you long
'Cause I know how you ask around and worry when you hear the songs
So I just called to let you know that I'm alright, no matter what

I'm writing songs to tell everyone
That I love them
While they're still here to sing along
And you've been the North Star since I was young
Where the light's from
And I'll follow 'til the glow is gone

I can barely remember it
Two or three at the time
Watering your tomato plants
You might've saved my life
When I stepped on a beehive
