lookin' for something pure

Not often do I find a song that I put on repeat for hours. I have listened to this song all..all....all day. I even attempted to teach myself to play it on the guitar. I just love the girl's voice that sings it..and even better, the first time I heard it was at at a show at Exit/In, when Bon Iver invited her (Sarah Siskind) up to the stage to play it. It's called "Lovin's For Fools." I love the words..they are so simple and so real.

Crazy how I've been livin without you
Inside this house that we built

Seems like the window's finally open
Letting the memories out


Go on and love her - love her forever
I'll never tell her you told me too

You'll never know dear how much I love you
Lovin's for fools, lovin's for fools


Maybe you'll find me roaming the garden
Looking for something pure..

Roots that are growing, deeper and deeper..
Maybe you'll pull them too


Go on and leave here, leave here forever
No one can make you do what you do

You'll never know dear, how much I love you
Lovin's for fools, lovin's for fools



..maybe you'll pull them too. ouch.
