Lyrics:
I don’t have another choice
I’m living in the void
When I think about you lately
My head fills up with noise
You left here two months ago
I saw the hand of God swing low
And the garden I had planted
Was covered in the snow
How am I going to let you know that I need your love?
How am I going to let you go Catalina Love?
Everything around went black
I sat up in the flash
Was it just me who heard it?
Is it just me who knows?
There are things I’ll never say
It will always be that way
Forever in your memory
Forever on your face
How am I going to let you know that I need your love?
How am I going to let you go Catalina Love?
I have a special place
A place that’s just my own
My namesake’s ash and bones
Are buried in the waves

Had been following Denison for years but lost touch a while ago. How I missed this is beyond me. A beautiful and heartbreaking (in some ways) album.

I feel like I'm hearing this song in a moving movie scene that makes me cry.

[@bobandkathymiller1042]

If you read about the story that inspired the song it will really move you to tears. A beautiful song and eulogy to such a little one..

The whole American Foursquare album is one of favorites -- and this song brings tears to my eyes. Honest and heartfelt songs about change and moving close to his family. It speaks to these days of lockdown. Lost my mom and dad, and he reminds us of the loving that comes from being with brothers and sisters. Hope and love, brother

This is how I interpret the visuals: 1. A *nest* of flower bouquet at the beginning - nest = a relationship that you wish could be your home - flower = the beautiful memories you share with you partner or the symbol of your partner 2. Frozen flower bouquet = when relationship grows apart and your partner becomes cold toward you. But because it's frozen, so the singer still wish that one day the ice will melt and that bouquet of flower will return him again as beautiful as before. He even reach out to the frozen flower longingly at one point. This sentiment also reflect in the lyrics that has the lingering feeling of can't letting go of another person.

this song makes me wanna b an 18th century peasant girl picking wildflowers while I think wistfully of the baker’s son in the neighboring village whew

[@nationalhamleague5352]

Something about the droning sound at the background is. So. Ugh. Love it

[@galenmeyer6624]

One of the very best songs by Denison -- so that's saying A LOT. Beautiful and honest.

"Living in a void" seems familiar.

[@sypher294]

It's simple physics. Most of what we think to be mass is just empty space. Nothing to be sad about :)

[@GodRockRadio]

Love this song, but... am I the only one who thought the name of this song was "Carolina Love"??? He's really singing "Catalina" there? I don't hear that at all.
