Enchanted

By this song.



I've been listening to it in loops thanks to a suggestion from my future roomie.  The melody has a strangely soothing yet haunting effect on me. My favorite part is the first line.  At first I thought he was singing "I bit my tongue in the awkward conversation." However, I was delighted to discover that the lyric is "I bit my tongue in the arc of conversation." Isn't that lovely?  I love that image.  Holding yourself back as a conversation crescendos and feeling the energy fall straight back to where you started from.
