lyrics

We all know the plot to a thousand films;
nothing ever happens until the hero leaves their hometown
or until that hero comes back around.
So, as aloof as it may sound, it’s time for you to leave.

To go away and learn, to build a home you’re proud of;
one that’s all your own.
To curate the truth of yourself that you love
and only share that one with the people that you meet.
To forget your embarrassing anecdotes to make
room for the new ones that align with your lightened life.
To learn, learn, learn.
To always ask questions and
learn, learn, learn.

You’ll find a new watering hole where the drinks are deep.
You’ll find the closest corner store where cigarettes are cheap.
You’ll find a diverse, new community ready to welcome the new you.
You’ll find it’s easier to love yourself when you have space to be yourself, unafraid.
Day after day, you’ll be unafraid.

And, of course, you’ll find yourself, come Chanukah time,
reading by a window as the train winds slowly,
parallel to the coast line.
We can meet you at the station, if you like,
we’ll be eager to see how you’ve changed since then.
Happy to see your silly scruffy face in Los Angeles again.
See we love you lots, but it’s time for you to leave.

With her defiantly fuzzy, pink bass by her side, Hannah Rose Dexter has traveled the world performing jazz and blues. On her debut album, "The View From Normal", her unique style of bass playing frees the instrument from the traditional role of glorified kick drum, and into the harmonic lead it’s always been capable of. ... more
