Head And The Heart, The - Library Magic Lyrics






I'm drawn to that sorta library magic
Whisperin' through the dusty aisles
Watchin' all the thinkers read
Tryin' to keep a grown mans quiet's like
Pulling teeth on a winter's eve
Cracks and pulls and unfamiliar roads
I'm on this one to find out
Veggie gas and brothers harass
Can't stay healthy in a cloud of eyes
Listenin' to my every move
Just tryin' to survive
This self-imposed adventure
That selfishness drives
I can barely keep my head above the blue
Tryin' to keep it off me and you

But I can see the sunshine's rays
Gleaming through the clear water
Telling me you gotta hop in for this chapter's ride
There will always be better days
There will always be better days

Makin' music is what we do
Tryin' to weave the patterns for me and you
Tryin' to make the grasses breathe and a grown man cry
Truth and life is where I gleam
Tangled up in a funnel's wind
Tryin' to come out walkin'
Understand it's beyond me talkin'
Tryin' to come out walkin'
Understand it's beyond me talkin'

I can see the sunshine's rays
Gleaming through the clear waters
Telling me you gotta hop in for this chapter's ride
There will always be better days
There will always be better days

Bein' alone isn't lonely
It's sought after like a holiday
Bein' home is my vacation
Postcard dreams of a full-sized bed

Quit the band one too many times
Serious enough to get a rise
But he'll hop in the next mornin' for another drive
That's a promise
The best advice we ever received is for you and me to stay together
It's easy to begin and hard to end
I'm just glad to go through it all with you as friends

I can see the sunshine's rays
Gleaming through the clear waters
Telling me you gotta hop in for this chapter's ride
There will always be better days
There will always be better days
There will always be better days

    Why can’t I find other people in real life who enjoy that same kind of music? Instead people are always surprised that a black guy enjoy folk

  8. A.... S....

    This is my alarm song at mornings, and i still love it !

  9. D.... E....

    I think I've been following these chapters wrong... I need to see through some clear blue waters

  10. l.... r....

    Oh, I love this song

  11. M.... E....

    //There will always be better days// never forget that

  12. C.... h....

    I love this song so so much, but it makes no sense at all. I don’t know if y’all planned it that way or I’m not listening right, please help me

  13. S.... G....

    Got my heart the first time I listened to it ♥️ THE HEAD AND THE HEART you guys rock 🤘🏼 if you do a tour in FRANCE I’d love to see you 😘

  15. D.... M....

    I just googled library magic for no reason particulary, and found them again

  16. P.... M....

    This song has made me cry more than once.

  17. P.... H....

    Wow que música más bella encontré 😍 sin querer

  18. R.... P....

    This song is so, so good. Thank you for the gift.

  19. M.... Z....

    Is that line really "veggie gas and brothers harass?!" What does that mean?

    M.... Z....

    yes! lol it is in reference to the band Quiet Life, who toured in a veggie oil van. Not sure about the brother's harass part.

  20. L.... M....

    I just listened to one song bec I saw it on my feed and then when I heard it and listened to another song I ended up listening and downloading the whole album. I've been looking for songs like this. Thank you very much for making these kind of songs. It rly connected with my heart, and that is the most important in a song--the connection with it's listener. :))

  21. P.... M....

    I enjoy this on both levels - lyrically and musically. Beautiful. It is a pick me up. thank you

  22. s.... ....

    I'm having a good day today, still in love with this song. :)

  23. J.... M....

    There will always be better days. : )

  24. F.... ....

    Great song. Love the travis picking. I hear the Paul Simon influence all over this one. Duncan and Sounds of Silence. Great lyrical imagery. This band has restored my faith in the future of music.

  25. S.... ....

    I feel lucky to have heard you perform this at the Edmonton Folk fest this summer magic thank you for you

  26. O.... ....

    Everyone needs this song today

    O.... ....

    Because of Trump or who?

  27. R.... J....

    Took me a while to come around to them but I really liked all we ever knew. I'm into their first self titled and let's be still along with this album now. They have very unexpectedly became my new s***! Happy about that, haven't found a band that interests me this much in a minute.

  28. H.... ....

    can't wait to see em again this nov. 7th.  Will be my 5th time somehow, and my second time seeing them at The Paramount in Seattle. great band, lots of heart and soul

  29. s.... ....

    people need to play this when theyre having a bad acid trip.... instant good trip

    s.... ....

  33. Q.... A....

    Aah! This is so good!

  34. L.... S....

  35. H.... Y....

    "Trying to come out walking, understand it's beyond me talking"

  36. p.... ....

    I was worried you guys would get away from your folk roots in your new album, but from the sound of this song, you definitely haven't. It's absolutely beautiful 👌

  37. b.... ....

    This song reminds me of Jefferson Airplane's Third Week in the Chelsea for some odd reason. Anyway i am super excited for this album and to see them in Colorado this is hands down my favorite band. I'm not lying when i say i listen to them everyday

  38. K.... F....

    Can't wait to hear this beauty live!

    K.... F....

    It was Beautiful just saw them in Richmond!

  39. m.... l....

    this song is so pretty i'm unnecessarily emotional

    m.... l....

    I know exactly what you mean when you say unnecessarily emotional! I get that!

    m.... l....

    It's so true, this band gets to me like no other ever has.

  40. Y.... ....

    This is just so so good to my ears
