Turning Blue

wind can make you shiver
rain is like a flood
floating like a river
the current in my blood
floated past the seasons
and i always miss what's true
winter has no reason
our love is turning blue
passed a congregation
they sang a sacred hymn
and i saw no correlation
and i never learned to swim
can't name this emotion
and i don't have a clue
river, lake, or ocean
our love is turning blue

Giving Up The Game
04:10

traffic's slow on sunset in the evening
walking by the swans in echo park
you always said this city had no meaning
'til it's your name up there, shining in the dark
look at me, i'm working for a living
watching you live out your wildest dreams
you'd think by now i'd learn to be forgiving
you always said i take things to the worst extremes
well i don't have much and maybe i'm to blame
you're walking down the streets of gold and fame
you win again but i'll be back around
you always said i land with both feet on the ground
wanna go where the weather won't get warmer
you can't even reach me on the phone
where every word has faded to a murmur
in a city that's entirely my own
well i'm headed out and giving up the game
someday soon they'll all forget my name
it won't be long til i hear of you again
but i'll be gone as i have never been
days are getting longer as i stay here
wonder if i'll make it out alive
sun is out and still the clouds won't clear
wish i could work to live and not survive

Late July
04:00

weather happens every day
rain is falling somewhere
sky will always have it's say
and the ground will always be there
we have early darkness now
a long wait til morning
but i have you just like a storm
that comes without warning
i love you more than cold loves december
more than a wanderer loves a goodbye
more than early sun on the water
i love you more than late july
you're steady as a redwood tree
hanging on the path i walk
but when the flames sweep up the leaves
you're water from the rocks
i love you more than cold loves december
more than a wanderer loves a goodbye
more than early sun on the water
i love you more than late july
every season has it's place
rain is falling somewhere
the look that love puts on your face
reminds me that breathing is just air
i love you more than cold loves december
the way that summer says it's goodbyes
more than autumn leaves can remember
i love you more than late july

Dolores Park

we were staring at the arches
coming down from the high
you said it all means something
I said it's only sky
drove up to san francisco
took the coastline all the way
i planned a conversation
without a single thing to say
when you're standing at the altar
and the evening sky goes dark
will you think of me beside you
when we lay in dolores park
called me from the mountains
at a loss for what to do
i wish it could be simpler
i wish it could be you
but i can't remember now
when i last heard from you
the letters stopped arriving
and i stopped writing too
i want the winds to change for me
i want the tides to turn
i know it may not happen now
i know i'll never learn
but when you're standing at the altar
and you brace for the bitter part
will you see me in the grey light
when we lay in dolores park
we lay along the hillside
the sun and moon was ours
i said it all means something
you said it's only stars
as we move like waves on the shoreline
together and apart
i think of you with your hand in mine
when we lay in dolores park

Raised by the Angeles National Forest, Isabel Wing was—from a young age—steeped in decades of music by singer-songwriter trailblazers, many of whom derived inspiration from the very canyons and peaks that defined her home. In cultivating her own sound, Isabel has turned to the familiar: the mountainous environment she’s always known, and the rich independent musical culture of her native city. ... more
