Minnie and Me

from Brave Enough by Ari Herstand

/

lyrics

She had me the moment that we first met
Behind the counter at Al’s
The pancakes burned as she dialed in the radio
She said “nice hair” and dropped the check
l left concert tickets as a tip
And she came to the show!

Now she’s my baby
She’s my baby

She quit the diner for late nights at an uptown bar
and we stopped going to shows
When I picked her up with our favorite song all cued up
She rolled her eyes and turned the dial
She said I haven’t liked them for awhile
I guess some things will change

But she’s my baby
She’s my baby

PBR’s and vintage boots
She can dye her hair and hide her roots
She bikes to work on her single speed
But I know who she used to be
Now we just don’t fit

She was my baby
She was my baby

She’s not my baby
anymore
She’s not my baby
anymore

Ari Herstand’s most recent offering, Like Home, explores the idea of what home means. And where to find it when the concept has been shattered. In a period when so many have been confined to their homes, this is an exploration that couldn’t be more worthy of the times. ... more
