[ local natives / airplanes ]
so i read the beautiful lyrics and wondered who it was about. i found out it was about keyboardist’s grandfather. it made me think about my grandfathers. both of whom are around but halfway across the world. and as such, i’ve never really had a chance to really get to know either of them beyond my toddler years.
for the first three years of my life though, my grandfather on my mother’s side was my best friend. i don’t remember anything concrete from those years, but i know what i felt and still feel. i want you back.
