Albatross + Ivy Lyrics
Over your head.
I wish you could have stayed San Diegan.
You disappeared instead, with such short notice.
If you come back to Albatross and Ivy,
you won’t be guilty for not writing me.
Over my head.
And through the wires with the sounds some phantoms make.
To the ground again.
This is the loudest quiet place in the entire state.
I’ll see you friend.
Hope I see you first.
I’ll see you…
I wish you could have stayed San Diegan.
You disappeared instead, with such short notice.
you won’t be guilty for not writing me.
And through the wires with the sounds some phantoms make.
To the ground again.
This is the loudest quiet place in the entire state.
Hope I see you first.
I’ll see you…

Why hasn't anyone commented on this lovely little song?
Robb has this to say in the liner notes: Airplanes fly really low on their way over the hill down to the San Diego Airport. Then after they've passed, an awkward noise seems to dart around above you through the telephone wires. It'll turn your mind inside out, I'm tellin' you.
damn i'm going to go over there and listen. i've walked down ivy a million times and never thought about that.
