GET YOU BACK (MARTIN)
 BEEN BY YOUR SIDE FOR A LONG WHILE NOW
YOU WONDER IF THERE'S A WAY
TO BREAK THE PEACE IN TWO

SAVE YOUR LIGHT FROM THE HOLE SO BLACK BECAUSE
YOU FEEL RIGHT
ABOVE THE NOWHERE

AND ANOTHER DAY CROSSES OUT
THE MAP ALL THE TORN UP
ROADS ARE UNDERNEATH
YOUR SKIN TOO MUCH FOR YOU TO CARRY

ON THE SAME WAY WILL
RUN DOWN YOUR FEAR
IS LOSING YOU TO TOMORROW'S SUN

 
 
"IT SOUNDED LIKE A NICE WAY TO SAY GOODBYE. I THINK ITS ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SONGS ON THE RECORD," JEFF MARTIN TOLD CHRIS DOURIDAS OF KCRW, "ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS... IT FEELS RIGHT TO LEAVE IT THERE." HE EXPANDED ON THAT IN AP, SAYING "I LOVE THE ETHEREAL, MEDITATIVE SIDE TO MUSIC. DOING THAT IN ONE SONG," TRAVERSING "DIFFERENT EMOTIONAL, MUSICAL QUALITIES... THAT SONG ENCAPSULATES IT." MUSICIAN ADDED ITS OWN PRAISE, ADMIRING THE CREATIVITY IN THE SONGWRITING: "NOT THE MOST COMMON CHORDS, CERTAINLY NOT A STANDARD PROGRESSION."
