Matthew Ryan

Matthew Ryan (born Ryan Webb; November 7, 1971) is an American alternative country singer-songwriter. Ryan has also collaborated with Neilson Hubbard to form the band Strays Don't Sleep. Ryan's voice has been described as a "hushed rasp, with words catching like vows destined to be broken - one of modern music's most potent whispers." Like the Jayhawks, Son Volt and other artists from the late 1990s alternative country scene, Ryan has a dedicated following but only limited commercial success. more »

I buttoned my shirt 
She laid on her side 
I leaned down to kiss her 
She put her hand over her eyes 
And my aeroplane 
Was outside the window 
I said maybe I should stay 
She said maybe you should go 
So I took a drive 
Through the lateness that night 
By the houses and phantoms 
In that quieter light 

60 some years 
Can go by in a minute 
But I love a world 
That has you in it 
And it's a warm lightning 
So let me be clear 
Wherever you are 
I want to be near 
Warm lightning 

I love the mornings 
When you're up before me 
I can still smell your perfume 
And the fall in the trees 
And the traffic is thinning 
And so is my hair 
The sweet note that you left me 
On the floor by the stairs 
Said isn't amazing 
Can you believe our luck
We've seen some hard things 
But we're still in love 

600 years 
Can go by in a minute 
But I love a world 
That has you in it 
Yeah it's a warm lightning 
So let me be clear 
Wherever you are 
I want to be near 
Yeah it's a warm lightning 
So let me be clear 
Wherever you go 
I want to be near 
Warm lightning
