about

Written in 1997 upon my wife and I buying our first house, with the drums recorded in 2000 and the rest in 2009

lyrics

I can feel you tonight
Your warmth lurks in this room
It’s a rush and repeat
Like a beautiful tune

You’ve affected my life
Unbelievably much
And I don’t think I even
Feel like killing and such

And I love this space
In front of me
And I love this place
Embracing me
Cause you’re in it!

Every day I get up
About three hours late
After lying there seething with you
My omnipresent mate

Even though you’re not physically here
I’m convinced that you’re not only near
But you’ve claimed this place as your identity
And whenever I’m in it, you’re practically me

And I love this place
Confronting me
Cause you’re in it!

Though I truly believe that you’re normal and real
You persist in this place stronger than I can feel
When I scrub the toilets, you moan with delight
If I mow the lawn, can I edge you goodnight?

And I’ve fallen in love
With this magical house
And I hope you come home
My omnipresent spouse
