about

This is a reworked folk version of a song that first appeared on the Mushkat EP, Lunar New Year (2005).

lyrics

A sunny winter's day on Summer Street. It's sweater warm but colder in the shade. I'm afraid it's just a hot freak current from the gulf of Mexico, that's traveled up the coast to kiss us on the cheek, then kiss off and leave us in the rain.

A rainy, windy summer's day, and I accept that I may never feel your
your gentle, warm caress again, but then...

Another hot freak current from the gulf of Mexico travels up the coast to kiss us on the cheek.
