about

this is for anyone who's ever had a really awesome friend you just feel so great around until someone points out to you that you're in love with him/her. you are so close that you could fall asleep next to each other all the time and it's been no big deal - until that revelation. now you feel all weird because, instead of sleeping peacefully beside them, you recognize all the feelings whirling around and wonder if this person feels the same, if you can be normal again, if it's really what you think it is, and if it is, will things change and how much, and it goes on and on and sleep is impossible. for you.

recorded live in an auditorium in front of about 4 people who were there to crew and made a wonderful audience.

lyrics

all my friends are telling me i'm in love with you
and i think they're right and now i don't know what to do
i'm feeling things for you i've never felt for anyone
and now i'm fighting flight and trying hard
not to quit and run

i'm lying here, frightened you might reach for me
but i don't leave 'cause here is where i want to be
inside i'm all turmoil but i lie here still as death
and i watch you sleep and feel your breath

i am so frightened, see i've never been scared

except for my thoughts of you, everything is hazy
i'm getting all confused, like i'm going crazy
it's not my style to lose control
maybe i should run, before you own my soul

i am so frightened

everything is telling me this is love i feel
and if it is, that means the risk is real
i've never been afraid, i always take the dare
but this is different, this time i'm scared

inside i'm all turmoil but i lie here still as death
and i watch you sleep and feel your breath
and i watch you sleep
and i watch you sleep

credits

from live from the gluck theater at wvu: at a moment's notice, track released December 7, 2011
i wrote it all, that's me singing and playing.
john casey engineered it live, managing to get a great stereo sound for the piano from a mono output.
lena got it all going and rick got it on here for me.
