Originally from First Loves: Unhealthy Love Songs I, released February 14, 2014

lyrics

I loved you last Winter. I loved you last Fall. I loved you last Summer, your sunburns and all, but you left our city and moved to some farm. Now I've got Sara so tight in my arm.

I'm not the Devil. I've not cast a curse. You both love so good, and neither is worse. Just, now that you're living so far and so free, it's prime-time that I'm living for me.

You either wear white or nothing at all, and the man I'm becoming... Well, he's bound to fall. You are the market set up by the pier. Sara's a Wal-Mart; she's cheaper and near.

Dear distant darling and Sara so sweet, why can't I eat both my veggies and meat? I'd be singing for you, girl, all through the night if a song for a cowgirl weren't so hard to write.

So, if you come back from your fields of green, and you think that you trust me and where I have been: discover young Sara here kissing my face. I'm even easier than you to replace.
