What you did for love was easy, it's what you'll do in spite that's hard. These words, written by Harry, spoke to me so deeply. He had written the first two verses and the chorus but gave up on it in a Harry fashion when it comes to golden nuggets. I picked it up out of the save-for-later bin and ran. It's a song about two people who fall in love and try their best, even when the timing isn't right and they both know it. There is hope along with deep sadness and growth in this song. We love how simple and lovely it turned out.
lyrics
On the good days he would miss her like a souvenir
And the bad ones he would miss her like a limb
He’d remind himself of just how good he’d had it
And get stuck on what he’d never have again
She could wear all her burdens like a feather
But mostly she’d just wear herself too thin
She knew just how to keep her life together
But she couldn’t always keep on loving him
Hunny, there’s no virtue in following your heart
What you did for love was easy
It’s what you’ll do in spite that’s hard.
When the giving dries up
And the cup in hand it lacks a liquid shine
All there is to do is give in to the aching
And to give up for the sake of losing time
Hunny, there’s no virtue in following your heart
What you did for love was easy
It’s what you’ll do in spite that’s hard
What you did for love was easy
It’s what you’ll do in spite that’s hard
It’s what you’ll do in spite that’s hard
I just started listening to this album today and am IN LOVE! Every track is perfect.
I'm slightly sad I didn't start listening to boygenius until but happy to be a fan of their music <3 lissie_a
1st time i heard DeathWish, i turned it off.
felt rushed, not the Isbell i've come to admire. really grab'd me when i took time to listen on the 2nd try. the writing on these songs stopped me in my tracks more than once. raw talent with just enough polish in the delivery.
thankyou Jason + 400 for another keeper swirlingmadness
