lyrics
Esraela took the seat beside me
Her coat still wet from the rain
Her blonde hair was a tad untidy
But mesmerizing just the same
Her umbrella folded at her feet
Was bright just like the day
At five with ten we met and then
This life would never be the same
So meet me tonight for the first time again
Kiss me as if your lips don't know mine yet
Now grab my hand, two sweet runaways
I'm never getting off this train
Esraela pressed her hand into mine
Two squeezes meant we were safe
Her fingers, delicate and fine
Bore a ring I'd worked so hard to pay
For interstellar, the thoughts she inspires
This train sailing through space
A slow dance, waltzing through the stars
Feet touch the ground only to say
So meet me tonight for the first time again
Kiss me as if your lips don't know mine yet
Grab my hand, two sweet runaways
I'm never getting off this train
The moves to this dance
I learned holding your hand
So much younger back then
It's been quite the ride
Like fools when we rushed in
Hearts open unguarded
Though nothing was thoughtless
It just felt so right
Little did we know then
Little do we know now
Two runaways got it right
All that there's to discover
Thoughts shared under covers
From lover to lover
Esraela we've got time
Esraela we've got time
So meet me tonight for the first time again
Kiss me as if your lips don't know mine yet
Grab my hand, two sweet runaways
I'm never getting off this train
So meet me tonight for the first time again
Kiss me as if your lips don't know mine yet
Grab my hand, two sweet runaways
We're never, we're never off this train
Little did we know then
Little do we know now
Two runaways got it right
All that there's to discover
Thoughts shared under covers
From lover to lover to lover to love
Esraela took the seat beside me
Her coat still wet from the rain

In Adrian Snood’s songs, soulful vocals and slow-moving alt-pop swirl together to create something distinctly moving. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 1, 2023
A hushed and low-lit EP from this Melbourne musician, where dreamlike melodies drift across a bed of tender guitar. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 19, 2023
