about

"Our Quarantine" is a song of gratitude. In these times of COVID quarantines, I'm one of the lucky ones. I've had the great fortune to be sheltered in place with someone I love and respect dearly. The worst my partner and I have to fear is our unemployment, our struggle to make ends meet, and my terrible quarantine beard. Not everyone is so lucky. Some folk live alone, or worse, with abuse.

If you or someone you know is a bad domestic situation, I've included a shortlist of regional organizations that may be able to help. If you enjoy the song, please consider donating to any of these organizations as a sign of appreciation.

lyrics

This fire called corona
caught Wuhan to California
and it climbed up the mountain
Yesterday

The stores all are closing
the poor folk supposing
work will be low
clear through to May

An artist and a waitress
We've got a single paycheck
between us, hunger
and strife

Call it social distance
call it losing business
we feel so helpless
staying inside

But I'm glad its you
You're glad its me
Living as two
in our quarantine
Here in sickness or health
I'm glad its you

The days are slowly winding
We're nickel and diming
Wondering how long
this can go on

Even if forever
at least we'll be together
You me and our
little white dog

But I'm glad its you
You're glad its me
Living as two
in our quarantine
Here in sickness or health
I'm glad its you
