lyrics

We got eyes on the smokestack of the sugar mill
There was movement for a moment then suddenly still
Is there still someone waiting for you?
We got a roof overhead and yet the damp gets in
The snoring chorus comes apart when Louie’s engine starts to spin

I want to see it coming
I want to look it in the eye
I want to know what hit me
I want to blow a kiss goodbye

If this mist ever lifts we’ll row the boat ashore
Steady as the nurse’s footsteps in the corridor
In the dark we can be all alone
That woman came again today, oh what’s her name again?
She was singing songs from long ago, I don’t know where or when

I want to see it coming
I want to look it in the eye
I want to know what hit me
I want to blow a kiss goodbye

about

Matthew Connor Boston, Massachusetts

Matthew Connor is a crooner for the 21st century, writing heart-wrenching songs that combine the windswept ideals of classic American balladry with stark depictions of modern-day alienation. The Boston-based Connor has a haunting voice that conjures ghosts of past heartbreaks, and he pairs it with spectral guitars that recall country tearjerkers and alt-pop brooding.
