Brett Dennen is a uniquely thoughtful songwriter, and damn talented. Most of his lyrics spill out like poetry, and his voice has a curious delicacy that is somehow steadied by the sincerity of his writing. I have to recommend the rest of his first album, and So Much More.
Here's the part I can't get out of my ears:
desert moon rise into the night
before we lay our heads I wish
to walk under the splendorous starlight
sing so sweetly, it’s the sweetest sound
and I’ve become weak in the knees
and I drop down and kiss the ground
and all my cares lie far below
in this earth I wish to die
in this hearth my fire grows
