about

I recorded this song the same day as the song "Something Good For Me" in the Duff House in Ames, Iowa, circa 2009(?). I always imagined this tune as a duet being performed back and forth between a male and female perspective. The song "Criminal" is ad libbed at the end briefly. Quickly after this session I wandered over to Bandshell Park to take in a Beatles Tribute band and then even later in the day Harvey, my cat, scratched my nose badly while he was behind the curtains-A no zone.

lyrics

Male: I've been thinking of ways to move on.
Female: I've been thinking of ways to get lost.
Both: And in spite of it all I'm still here with you. (ohhh)

Female: I've been thinking of ways to get more.
Male: I've been thinking of ways to get caught.
Both: Every once and a while I'm still here with you.

So love me instead of him.
Make love instead of hate.
Cuz we are
Here we are
Here we are again
Cuz here we are
Here we are.

Remember when I said I'd go dancin'.
And I did, I took you, and we danced, and it felt so right.
Every once and a while I'm still there with you.
So love me instead of him.
Make love instead of hate.
Cuz here we are
Here we are
Here we are again...
