Cobblestone,
Your eyes candlelit, blazing
I've lit a fire for you
Oh the fumbling of hands we share, here
The fumbling of elements many have felt
And I wonder if I am any different--
A trundled body of mistaken chemicals
Brash, raw--
Nevertheless
I wish to learn the angles
To love

A dinner date brimming with "immediate intimacy". Angel Olsen has some beautifully written lyrics. This song, California, speaks wonders about the initial feelings of a new love. Questioning the validity of those feelings, where they come from, and how they can carry you away into a dream.
"Who knows what it means to have a feeling buried so deep down?"
