Rare New Disease

from From The Blue House by Lauren Hoffman

/

lyrics

It's dead quiet here
But for my heart beating loud and clear
Under my breast bone going like mad
It's the loneliest heart
That a girl ever had

I had a dream last night
A full house but not a friend in sight
That all changed when you came through the door
And you held me in a way
You never held me before

I'm sorry my friend I can't see you tonight
I'm not feeling right, you'd better stay out of sight
No you won't hear me cough or sniffle or sneeze
But I think I'm coming down with a rare new disease

Lately I've been feeling strange
Everything's different but nothing's changed
I've been shivering but I'm far from cold
I try to stay calm
But I'm losing control

I'll keep my legs crossed
I'll let my body know my mind is the boss
But there's no telling if I'll really behave
So you'd better stay away for a couple of days

Is it hot in here or is it just me?
I've got a knot in my tummy and a tickle in my knees
No you won't hear me cough or sniffle or sneeze
But I think I'm coming down with a rare new disease

I'm sorry my friend I can't see you tonight
I'm not feeling right, you'd better stay out of sight
No you won't hear me cough or sniffle or sneeze
But I think I'm coming down with a rare new disease

It's dead quiet here
It's dead quiet here
It's dead quiet here

Lauren Hoffman Los Angeles, California

music is exceptionally useful for communicating the nuance and complexity of the human experience because it is an emotional language, we process and respond to it in a different way than thoughts, beyond the limits of linguistics. that's why it's special and mysterious and i love it. that's why i write and sing and play instruments and make records. that's why i share my songs with you. ... more
