Hints of jasmine in a flour tin
Bags of corn meal spark a stupid grin
A jacket made of corduroy
Orange peels and pale koi
The garden path is one-way
And I can taste your breath
And I can feel the heart beat
In your chest
And when we met
Well you can bet
I was certainly not bored
The hair upon your arm
Will stand up straight
The hours on the clock
Will melt away
That little bit of gloom
Will start to stray
If only for a moment
Lamp light crane illuminate the wood grain
Shadow puppets dancing on the window shade
I swear I thought your eyes were blue
But now I see the green
The garden path is one-way
And I can taste your breath
And I can feel the heart beat
In your chest
And who’d have thought
That what we got
Would feel so easy
The hair upon your arm
Will stand up straight
The hours on the clock
Will melt away
That little bit of gloom
Will start to stray
If only for a moment

Easily one of my favorite songwriters. Sara Hensel combines the vocal and lyrical acrobatics of Joni Mitchell with the production sensibilities of Blake Mills and robust grooves of Lucy Dacus. Dan Klee
I played drums on this one too! Zygotes is such a fun pop-rock experience. There are a lot of twists and turns for such a concise release -- give it a listen. ;) Dan Klee
