7 - Listen Tonight

marimba: Andrea McColeman
guitar: Kevin Closs
double bass: Brian Quebec

The loons are back at their summer lakes
And they're saying they have taken
All that they can take

There is no place that isn't the scene of the crime
My love and I listen tonight like it's the last time
Like it's the last time

The bees are out in their summer fields
There is something in their buzzing
Ominous and real

There is no place that isn't the scene of the crime
My love and I listen today like it's the last time
Like it's the last time

The leaves and the breeze dance their verano
But the music will not take us
Where we used to go

There is no place that isn't the scene of the crime
My love and I listen tonight like it's the last time
Like it's the last time
