Novels of Acquaintance

I met you over mountain moons
 Banjo riffs and fiddle tunes an'
 Sugar River, Stair Creek first
 Once now, twice now, every weekend
 Lean in beloved friend
 Bits of tender reel me in an'
 Tip the cup and pour the rubies
 Wild laughter, lust, and beauty
 Yeah
 Fine tune me with patience
 And I'll write you
 Novels of acquaintance
 Yeah
 Fine tune me with patience
 And I'll write you
 Novels of acquaintance
 Thank you dear family
 For stepping up unanimously
 Everywhere we've gone, we're home
 Voice for glory, grace where shown
 It's boundless what we're in
 The movements growing, spreading kin
 Teach me treasure, grow me strong
 Give me strength in every song
 Yeah
 Fine tune me with patience
 And I'll write you
 Novels of acquaintance
 Yeah
 Fine tune me with patience
 And I'll write you
 Novels of acquaintance
 Dear quiet mystic neighbor
 Here's to trails and trails of paper
 A firm footed letter lover
 You're the best thing I've discovered
 It's a love song, it's true
 No hints, no riddles, no clues
 No threats, no strings, no bound
 And damn baby, you make me grounded
 Yeah
 Fine tune me with patience
 And I'll write you
 Novels of acquaintance
 Yeah
 Fine tune me with patience
 And I'll write you
 Novels of acquaintance
 I'd never be here without
 All your hands rejoice and shout
 You who came broke and weary
 Sick, step into the clearing
 Let this be a moment healing
 I see you picture perfect
 Rise together, lose no faith
 That I've got you and you've got me
 Yeah
 Fine tune me with patience
 And I'll write you
 Novels of acquaintance
 Yeah
 Fine tune me with patience
 And I'll write you
