Lyrics
Ion displacement won't work in the basement
Especially when I'm not with you
Here in the heartland, a feeling so startling
I don't know what I should do

Oh, Bryn, you see through the dark
Right past the fireflies that sleep in my heart
You know it's easy to see
Wait for the season to come back to me

Nights by the ocean, a westerly motion
That moves California to sea
Eyes like a seagull, no Kansas-born beetle
Could ever come close to that free

Oh, Bryn, you see through the dark
Right past the fireflies that sleep in my heart
You know it's easy to see
Wait for the season to come back to me

Vampire Weekend – I Stand Corrected
Although “I Stand Corrected” doesn’t feature any of the Afropop beats that frequent the rest of Vampire Weekend, nobody said going soft was a bad decision for the album. In fact
Vampire Weekend – The Kids Don't Stand a Chance
