about

Texasman is about the past - about youth and its tendency to slip away. The song concerns the time I lived in Austin with an indie pop band. We were living far away from home with big plans and dreams. The Texas man in the song is the one and only Willie Nelson.
-Sig

lyrics

desert house
big city dreams down the highway
cats in crowds
chris and caro are gone today
so we lay out
with the scorpions in the burweed
close our eyes
dream a life

evening sun
you feel it well past 9 o clock
two bedrooms
packed with all 5 of us
morning heat
good morning another day to believe

texasman
texasman
I’m looking up at your highlights
down here pining the spotlight
truth is love
the truth is on the other side
I still can’t reach
still some dull shade of green

coolest crush
I’d ever seen
coolest cuz
don’t turn back on me
that youthful buzz mmm
oh come back to me
