Name: Little Kensington
Duration: P00H03M22S
Description: This one is about near infidelities, the lengths one must go to in order to remain faithful, to not get caught up in the romantic ideals of what a new love can offer. The title and one of the lines comes from a sigh I saw in a Chinese deli in Kensington Market in Toronto about how "Bathrooms are for Customer Use Only. Please do not insist."

about

This one is about near infidelities, the lengths one must go to in order to remain faithful, to not get caught up in the romantic ideals of what a new love can offer. The title and one of the lines comes from a sigh I saw in a Chinese deli in Kensington Market in Toronto about how "Bathrooms are for Customer Use Only. Please do not insist."

lyrics

When it got dark on Sunday Evening
I could have slept outside
As the evening broke around me
Like a motherless child

Ask not what your conscience can do for you
But what you can do for it willfully
Suffering inconstancy
Giving out too liberally
Setting out to see

As I'm about to love you
I really must leave
Please do not insist
Please do not insist

These things so far from where you are
You don't belong to me
Your hands let go
You'd sunk so low
You don't belong to me
