Real Peach - Recorded at Spotify Studios NYC

Well, nighttime passes but the dark remains
And I was feelin' like a little child but I am loathed to place blame
On that lionessesque woman who will go here unnamed
She was looking in me for a lion when she found it so tame

On that erstwhile May morning, I took the six downtown to Spring
And I was writing something elegiac that I never learned to sing
But I think that it was this song just four years premature
And I remember crossing out the line, all is fair in love and war

Well, if all is fair in love and war
Then I don't know what we are fighting for

'Cause my baby she's a real peach
Even when the night come crashin' down
Real peach and the nighttime rolls away, alright
And we're comin' back to the demon-killing work of love, my god

Well, nighttime passes and the dark retreats
I hand it over to my upper angel who visits me in sleep
We're in the field beyond the right and wrong and the fallacy of form
Well you can call it what you wanna call it, I just say "All is fair in love and war"

Well, if all is fair in love and war then I don't know what we are fighting for
So, if we don't care to fight no more
Let's go upstairs and let's shut the door

'Cause my baby she's a real peach
Even when the night come crashing down
Real peach and the nighttime rolls away, alright
'Cause my baby she's a real peach
Even when the night come crashing down
Real peach and the nighttime rolls away, alright
And we're comin' back to the demon killing work of love, my god
