Ray LaMontagne

Discovered this guy through a connection on MySpace (yes, the devil site). But then recommended him to another friend, and in turn have his album "Till The Sun Turns Black" now.

Track 4 - Three More Days - is probably my favorite right now, but you know me - the lyrics person... Track 5 - Can I Stay, just sings to me. Beautiful I think.

To those of you that are Ryan Adams fans I think this would be up your alley. And even if you are not - check him out! -- Ray LaMontagne

Lyrics
Can I Stay

Can I stay, here with you, till the morning?
I am so far from home and I feel a little stoned
Can I stay here with you till the morning?
There's nothing I want more than to wake up on your floor
Lay with me in your thinnest dress
Fill my heart with each caress
Between your blissful kisses, whisper
Darling, is this love?

Can I stay, here with you, till the day breaks?
There's something you should know
I ain't got no place to go
Can I stay here with you, till the day breaks?
How happy it would make me to see your face when I wake
Lay with me in your thinnest dress
Fill my heart with each caress
Between your blissful kisses, whisper
Darling, is this love?

Can I stay, here with you, through the nighttime?
I've fallen sad inside and I need a place to hide
Can I stay, here with you, through the nighttime?
I'm all alone and blue, won't you take me to your room?
Lay with me in your thinnest dress
Fill my heart with each caress
Between your blissful kisses, whisper
Darling, is this love?

Whisper to me, is this love?
