From ANDRAS JONES: ERICA RUSSEL is a big reason you’re hearing this. Along with the folks at Starburns, Erica’s passionate support for my work with The Pop Oracle has allowed us to record all these podcasts and support and promote all these artists. Thanks Erica! She’s usually parked out in the sticks in Maryland but this week in October she was on the west coast and was able to be coaxed into joining our session with IRA MARLOWE, and his adorable pooch POTUS.
POP ORACLE Song of The Day (January 31, 2019): RECESS MONKEY “Backpack”
IF WE WERE IN LOVE
We sat there talking
the car still running
neither of us noticing the time
and even in the dark
I saw it in your eyes
that shine
And each time you laughed
just when I laughed
I had a thought I almost thought was real
That if we were in love
this is how we’d feel
We’ve got no business
going near this
It’s something we both know
it shouldn’t be so hard
to see things as they are
and let go
So you told a story
and I told a story
and we never came close to a kiss
But if we were in love
it would feel like this
And maybe there’s a place somewhere
and everything not meant to be
is meant to be there
where the laughter goes on
and the sorrow is gone
and the stars all align…
We sat there talking
the car still running
And I told you what I couldn’t help but say
and you got quiet
and I got quiet
like that might make the whole thing go away
and I caught myself
and you caught yourself
then you took my hand and said you had to go
If we were in love
If we were in love
If we were in love
we would know
