about

This song was written after hearing Brahm's first violin sonata at a chamber music festival in Järvrnpää, Finland.

lyrics

Clenched jaw and furrowed brow
If you are the rain, then I am the ground
Don't know what to do with this thirst for a time and place where I found you first
Where I found you first

Kind eyes, lion's gaze
Die a thousand times when you look my way
Don't know what to do to rid my part so I wrap it up and I ice my heart
And I ice my heart

I want more
I know you want it babe
Come and take what's yours
You want more
I know you want it babe
Come and take what's yours
Take what's yours

Clenched jaw and furrowed brow
If you are the rain then I am the ground
Don't know what to do with this thirst for a time and place where I found you first

Where I found you
First
Where I found you first
Where I found you
First

about

Ringdown Portland, Oregon

Ringdown's music is like calling your first love on a rotary telephone, percussively tearing out the hammers from a 1924 vintage upright, and flinging each of them into space while you wait for every heartache you've ever felt to quietly return.
