Alex Blair Oh my gosh! What a find. Morning Bear has an incredible voice and the arrangements are simply stunning. You hear it in passing and it stops you in your tracks I've had Celeste on repeat play! Don't hesitate if you like folk/Americana - just buy it already! Favorite track: Celeste.

Morning Bear 03:56
Morning broke like a water glass to the floor Saw your face for the first time in a year or more Light spilled out, across the river shore You arise, calling out for your morning bear Soaking wet, coming out the shower with tousled hair Light flows in, illuminates the air

Celeste 04:55
There you were, at last Rising like a full moon in the night In me it stirred a tide so strong Out from my eyes it burst All the time I waited All along I'd known But nothing could prepare me for how you'd grown You are like the sun Outshining everyone And I am just a fool Like Icarus, straight into you I flew Though I had grown pale Even then I knew No consequence could keep me from you It came like a storm Flooding the desert floor And in my little boat I struggle to keep afloat I will make it through the rain And I will see you again

Despise 03:57
Little girl, close your eyes You have seen through my disguise And finally you wash your hands Of all my unfair demands And when you finally return That is when we all will learn We broke apart like glass Who'd have known it couldn't last But all the pieces still shine In our hearts and in our minds And I see light inside your eyes Which I could never despise
