I remember when we met A summer storm wasn't over yet We discovered our initials matched Now the radiator's cold And you're off somewhere I don't know
I pretend it's summer And go outside Change the weather In my mind Wild roses are in bloom On a shaded path with you It's a lonely kind of thing I do
I wonder what made you decide You took a breath and said goodbye Left me on that bench alone to cry Now the ice has had its way And you're off somewhere who can say
I pretend it's summer And go outside Change the weather In my mind Days go by and hours pass You and I lie on the grass It's the only daydream I have left
Now the ice has had its way And you're off somewhere who can say I pick flowers in the snow all day
She ain't got no money Clothes are kinda funny Hair is kinda wild and free Oh, but love grows where my Rosemary goes And nobody knows like me
She talks kinda lazy People say she's crazy And her life's a mystery Oh, but love grows where my Rosemary goes And nobody knows like me
There's something about her hand holding mine It's a feeling so fine That I just gotta say She's really got a magical spell And it's working so well That I can't get away
I'm a lucky fella And I just gotta tell her That I love her endlessly Oh, cause love grows where my Rosemary goes And nobody knows like me
Yeah, I'm a lucky fella And I just gotta tell her That I love her endlessly Oh, cause love grows where my Rosemary goes And nobody knows like me

Do you still have spells Catastrophic bills You make it look like you intended it
If you ever get downtown Why don't you see if I'm around Maybe I'll waste your time Like I waste your time And if you ever get the sense You're gonna see me again I'm gonna waste your time Like I waste your time
Do you still forget Exaggerate the rest You make it all into an incident
Do you still deny Shut one eye Then aim right between the promises
"The best pop songs capture something universal, some experience that speaks to everyone," 프레디 존스톤은 근 십여년의 활동기간 동안 6장의 정규앨범과 1장의 라이브앨범을 발표한, 만만찮은 디스코그래피를 보유하고 있는 싱어송라이터이다. 하향평준화/상업화되버린 컨트리뮤직을 좀더 근원적인 부분에서 혁신해 보고자하는 복고회귀-재창조의 아메리카나(얼트컨트리나 얼트컨트리 락보다는 컨트리 본연에 사운드에 충실한)와 포크락, 어덜트 얼터너티브 락의 자장 안에 포섭되는 그의 음악적 특징은 컨트리 팝 멜로디 위에 얹어진 직관적이고 서정적인 가사에 이르러 그 빛을 더욱 발한다. 많은 외지의 평가에서 보듯 프레디 존스톤은 특출한 송라이팅 능력 - 삶의 아...
