First Tapes For The Internet

by The Felts

/

  • Streaming + Download

    It's more of a long EP than an album. The songs were assembled and recorded quickly on a four track recorder so they could be put on the internet for the ear of the general public as a first set of recordings. Hence the name "First Tapes For The Internet." It came out in 2010.
    Purchasable with gift card

Song For Dianne 04:59
lyrics

Dear Dianne, Since you left down, a few things have changed it snowed three times here, I hear it snows in Maine I got a new sweatshirt, I wear it a lot it's a track jacket from the track team I'm on now that I can drive I want to buy a Ford Bronco I don't have cash now so I'll try and borrow it I still don't drink and I still go to church and I can't read analogue clocks or cursive and all I want to do is write letters to you and hope they don't get lost in the mail Dianne, I wrote this song for you but I wanted to sing it in person but you're a million miles away from here so I'll sing into this microphone waiting on you to get back home sometime The cracks in the sidewalk collect all the rain sentiment can melt and pour right down the drain but I wouldn't forget all the cool things we did and though you can't hear me up there where you live I only want to say that you're not missing much my heart feels black and it's cold to the touch write back when you get a chance because I'd love to hear what you're up to and if you've heard of the fact that All I want to do is write music for you and hope you can hear it some day Dianne, I wrote this song for you but I wanted to sing it together but you're a million miles away from here so I'll sing into this microphone waiting on you to get back home And since you've left the state, I've been in one of my own, drinking a smoothie out of an icecream cone. My parents are still together. My dog is still alive, so I cannot complain. I just hope that you're alright. (Chorus) Dianne, I wrote this song for you but I wanted to sing it together. But you're a million miles away from here so I'll sing into this microphone waiting on you to get back home sometime. Love, Will
