Donavon Frankenreiter Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You and I, girl, are like a sun and moon
Lately you ve been in orbit in my head like a good summer tune
You and I are we never gone apart
But I didn't have to tell you then,
Cause you knew it back from the start, yeah

Just tell me yes I do
Cause I can't go on without you!
Gonna let our love shine
To the end of time, to the end of the time,
yeah say shine!
To the end of the time oh

You and I, girl, like a brick on the street
In a ... everybody's fear
You and I, girl, like a breeze that blows
Sometimes were coming and were going, but nobody knows

Just tell me yes I do
Cause I can't go on without you!
Gonna let our love shine
To the end of time, to the end of the time,
yeah say shine!




To the end of the time oh
Gonna let our love shine!

Raw talent like this will always have a place in my heart. Nothing I love more than a couple instruments and vocals. No fancy show, no annoying lights and distracting dance theatrics. This is what real music and talent looks and sounds like.

These live sessions are absolutely solid. Organic and natural sound with such a soothing presentation. I loved Donavon's music ever since I heard Beautiful Day in Snakes on a Plane way back in the day when I was just a kid. He's been my favorite artist since and this was just excellent. Good on you guys and thank you for this, sincerely
