lyrics

Lovers At Dawn

We were both baptized by dawn
As the sun it crept down Christopher
And washed us of each others hands
As I watched you walk away
Evening hides our shadows as
The candles burn in cheap cafes
Drawing all our senses close
As our silence falls away

But honey I’m pretty sure this is as good as it gets
Because I don’t think that we’d still be
Lovers at dawn
But listen I don’t feel that we should regret
All the things that we could have been had
But didn’t need
From each other Dear

We were both here for a moment
And we’ll return from time to time
Because it’s not the end that we crave
But the spark
And the first time that you crossed my mind

But honey I’m pretty sure this is as good as it gets
Because I don’t think that we’d still be
Lovers at dawn
But listen I don’t feel that we should regret
All the things that we could have been had
But didn’t need
From each other Dear

If your words were a sacrament
Well Honey I’d be blessed
Even as we leave
For our separate beds
And if your touch was a prayer
I’d fast for days
Even as we go
Our separate ways

But honey I’m pretty sure this is as good as it gets
Because I don’t think that we’d still be
Lovers at dawn
But listen I don’t feel that we should regret
All the things that we could have been had
But didn’t need
From each other Dear

Dan Saulpaugh New York, New York

New York based singer-songwriter Dan Saulpaugh exists at the nexus of indie-folk and modern jazz, blending the emotional immediacy of Jeff Buckley's folk-as-art-music aesthetic with the harmonic richness of Wayne Shorter's '60s compositions. This acts as a jumping off point for his songs that explore the complexities of being in love and finding one's place spiritually in the world. ... more
