lyrics

There's nothing in the fridge, nothing in the cupboard
The jelly jar is empty, and I'm plum sick of peanut butter
A groundhog ate the lettuce right out of the ground
Honey, let's go out

There's nothing on the TV. The picture looks like hell
We've watched all of the moves up on the move shelf
I'm sure there's a jazz band playing in one of the bars downtown
Honey, let's go out

Last night we were swingin', we had the music up loud
Our house felt like the center of the world
But oh my we slept late and the day just slipped away
And now the evening has found us without a comb or curl

We've hung around the kitchen, lingered in the hall
Upended all the bottles up on the pantry stall
I'll take a stingy pour at Miller's over no pour at all
Let's go out, let's go have a ball!

When we met it was December
And though the jokes you told were splendid
The serenade had ended by January
When you wooed me in June, it was by a different tune
In spring came the ring and now we're calling up our parents

Let's get 'em all together, on some sunny hill
You can say "I do", and I will say "I will"
All the bells will rings and all the kids will shout
When we go out

All Of It Was Mine
by The Weather Station

supported by 4 fans who also own “Let's Go Out”

Sounds like warm sunlight coating river-soaked clothes some life ago. I hear memories almost forgotten translated into these songs; melancholy given melody with reverent affect so as to preserve without desperation in my ears, acidic only because honey sticks. I miss the joy of loving without hesitation. devronmarts
