Salamanca 02:47
It’s snowin in Salamanca There’s a crazy emerald glow Frozen flakes from Lake Erie Fall on my home In a blizzard the square is empty The streets wear their winter cloak Nothing to do for the town folk And nowhere to go But I’m watchin through my window By the hearth in the afterglow Emerald ghosts dressed like Indians Rise from the snow That’s life in the town of Salamanca It’s winter year round in Salamanca Come home Come home
2.
There are those who show up late And those who just don’t bother There are those who choose to stay But you and me were born to saunter Through the open window There are those who can’t escape And they sink because they swallow Beneath the frozen lake They’re terrorized and forced to follow There are those who fill with hate And when they sleep the dream is hollow Then they scream when they awake Free to find, to seek and follow The light from an open window Let me love you, pull you cross the fringe Let me make you, shape you till your in the mold Let me love you, pull you from the fridge Let me shake you, bake you till your in the mold There are those from outer space Where there is no time to borrow Or trade from your mistakes Free to find, to seek and follow Let me love you, pull you cross the fringe Let me make you, shape you till your in the mold Let me love you, pull you from the fridge Let me shake you, bake you till your in the mold

Hazel 06:14
Hazels on the rise Swollen with the tide She lights the midnight path I’m keepin The owl hunts, the fox is creepin Hazel Hazels in the sky And from my bedroom I See light peakin through the forest Where Hazel’s hollow breath is sweepin Hazel

about

Hazel is part of the May Family Reunion Early Works Collection along with two other EPs; Flying in Your Sleep and Touch 199, and three LPs; Scarlet, The Cloud and War in the World of Animals.

About Hazel -

This EP is inspired by and much about Hazel. Who Hazel “really” is will perhaps remain a forever mystery! Something for listeners to develop their own theories on. She is a re-occurring character in May Family Reunion lyrics. In fact, Hazel has always been and always will be a central figure throughout the May Family album lore.
