New Favorite Song

So, recently I went to this outdoor concert in Bryan Park that featured Krista Detor. I've honestly never heard of her before, but this is definitely my most recent favorite song. I've never thought of myself as being into mellower and sunnier music, but her music and words just, speak, like I've never heard before. Absolutely beautiful. I encourage you to check out her website.

"A Red Bowl" by Krista Detor. (I had to type up the lyrics myself because they don't have them online.)

Green limes in a red bowl
On a table
And I don’t know what you’re calling for.
Green limes in a red bowl
On a table
And I don’t know what you’re calling for.
If I had a dime for every drop of rain
If I had a million-dollar name,
Would you like me better?
Would it all be better?
Blue bird on the fence post
By the hostas
And I don’t know what you’re calling for.
Blue bird on the fence post
By the hostas
And I don’t know what you’re calling for.
If I had a house in the city
And a man who answered my door,
And your pretty picture,
Would it all look better?
Red coat on the white chair
By the front door
And I don’t know what you’re calling for.
Red coat on the white chair
By the front door
And I don’t know what you’re calling for.
If I promised I’d love him forever
Could it all be better?
Such a pretty picture.
If I had a dime for every drop of rain,
If I had a million-dollar name,
And fortune and fame,
Could it all be…?
Could he love me…?
Green limes in a red bowl
On a table
And I don’t know what you’re calling for.
