about

I’ve always felt like my personality is overly accommodating. In some ways, I think that’s a character flaw of mine. When people ask me about my musical influences growing up, I always answer that it depends on who I was dating at the time. This song is loosely based on a guy named Steve. I talk about cassettes of The Grateful Dead. Yes, I’m that old.

lyrics

Do you like the Grateful Dead?
A cassette in his hand,
I shook my head,
"I don't yet, but I will," I said,
"I'll listen to it for you".

How's about a skiing trip,
We could take a hike or take a dip,
I said, "I don't swim, and I rarely ski,
but I think I could be free."

He said, "Do you like beer or do you like wine?"
"I'd prefer wine, but beer is fine. I'd drink a sip or two,
I'd do it for you".

I would disappear into you,
You have my heart,
Do what you choose to do,
Take my hand, I am yours.

He said, "I don't want to commit right now,"
We'll have fun, he likes to show me how.
His carefree ways are his move,
but I can can be carefree too.

I will carry for you, all the pain
I will give you the sun and I will give you the rain,
and when you ask me to, I'll give you your space
and fade into you.

I'd leave the clock on the wall,
leave the dishes in the sink
leave the coats in the hall.

I'd give you the morning paper out of my hand,
I'd make you some coffee
and I'd quit my band,
If lightening tears the sky in two,
I'd do it for you.
I'd do it all for you.
