    Lyrics:
    staring down the barrel of the hot sun
    shining with the sheen of a shotgun
    carol has a little if we need some
    joa has a ride if we wanna come
    hangin’ your jeans with a clothes pin
    skin still wet, still on my skin
    mango in your, juice drippin’
    shoulder of your shirt sleeve slippin’
    christmas eve with your mother and sis
    don’t wanna fight, but your mother insists
    dog’s white teeth slice right through my fist
    drive to the ER and they put me on risk
    grocery store list, now you get pissed
    unchecked calls and messages
    I don’t wanna be the owner of your fantasy
    I just wanna be a part of your family
    I don’t wanna talk about anything
    I don’t wanna talk about anything
    I wanna kiss kiss your eyes again
    wanna witness your eyes lookin
    I don’t wanna talk about anyone
    I don’t wanna talk about anyone
    I wanna sleep in your car while you’re driving
    lay in your lap when I’m crying
    circle of pine and red oak, circle of moss and fire smoke
    fan on the ceiling like a wheel spoke
    push the clutch and i pull the choke
    wanna listen to the sound of you blinking
    wanna listen to your hands soothe
    listen to your heart beating
    listen to the way you move
    I don’t wanna talk about anything
    I don’t wanna talk about anything
    I wanna kiss kiss your eyes again
    wanna witness your eyes lookin
    I don’t wanna talk about anyone
    I don’t wanna talk about anyone
    I wanna sleep in your car while you’re driving
    lay in your lap when I’m crying
    weren’t we the stars in heaven
    weren’t we the salt in the sea
    dragon in the new warm mountain
    didn’t you believe in me?
    You held me the whole way through
    but I couldn’t say the words like you
    I was scared, indigo, but I wanted to
    I was scared, indigo, but I wanted to
    I don’t wanna talk about anything
    I don’t wanna talk about anything
    I wanna kiss kiss your eyes again
    wanna witness your eyes lookin
    I don’t wanna talk about anyone
    I don’t wanna talk about anyone
    I wanna sleep in your car while you’re driving
    lay in your lap when I’m crying

    my best friend growing up, she was like my sister, would blink so loudly. i’ve still never heard someone’s eyes blink audibly. when adrianne says, “i wanna listen to the sound of you blinking” i think of her every time, my katelynn lee.

    This song’s lyricism and imagery blow me away. I’ve always been a fan of art that offers vignettes of a life, little vibrant moments distilled into a succinct gut-punch of emotion. Adrianne uses words in a way that injects those moments into my goddamn bloodstream and i’ll never get over it. Absolutely gorgeous version of the song. Second only to the Steve Fisher cover for me.

    “Then she opened up a book of poems
    And handed it to me
    Written by an Italian poet
    From the thirteenth century
    And every one of them words rang true
    And glowed like burning coal
    Pouring off of every page
    Like it was written in my soul
    From me to you”
    -Tangled Up In Blue, Bob Dylan.
    Written in my soul - that is how I feel about this song alright.

    it's been a horrible month without you. I've been in the worst pain of my life. crazy, sometimes I forget how to eat or sleep, I hardly even function right. I miss you so so much. it's so weird not calling you every day, making sure you're okay, making sure i tell you that i love you, Sometimes we'd talk for hours, sometimes we'd talk for minutes, talk about all types of things. Sometimes we'd joke around, sometimes some deep conversations. To being at your house every weekend for hours on end watching one piece, to hanging out at lunch with mari and axel, to being at the park watching the view, and just talking about life and have so many ideas just bouncing back to each other. sometimes we’d just sit in silence, it would kill me to not hear your voice but i never said anything. You taught me so much this past year. You taught me how to be a woman, how to assert control. how to get better. Taught me how to deal with certain things that i wouldn’t ever know how to be deal with if you were never here. , how to block out the negativity, and all that energy I didn't need. I could go on and on forever, for all the memories we had, but damn. i think I've shared so much, it's like every time we got off the phone, the last time, the last time we talked, the last thing you said was, "I love you my beautiful angel" I love you, Yasmine. Thank you for everything..

    I found this song shortly after I lost my ex. I won't get into how it ended or why, but I will say this song helped me get through it. Now, months later learning he cheated on me, used me for only my body and I also realized he was using the pain he felt from past friendships to make our relationship harder, I'm still having a hard time letting him go. I'm having a hard time hating someone who only used my for their own pleasure. I hate it. I wish I was strong enough to let go. I dream of you every single night and I don't even fight it anymore, instead I use it to cope pretending it was reality.
    But because of Adrianne I find it a little easier to bare with it. Her captivating lyrics hold a soothing rhythm and comfort me in a way only he could.
    I don't wanna be the owner of your fantasy, I just wanna be apart of your family

      She worked hard so you could make your own mistakes and learn how to be a better person, just like she did. That’s one of the privileges of having your own life to live, learning and growing and making the most of it. I’m a mom, and I can only imagine she just wants you to be safe and happy.

    Adrianne's music connects with me in a very unique way, it's unbelievable. English is not my first language, so just the melody of the words is stunning (I can kind of turn off the language). And when you add meaning to them... wow.

    I usually listen to something while I sleep, and this has been the on,y thing I’ve been able to fall asleep to lately, paired with many other Adrianne songs.
