About Lovelast
Formed in Houston, Texas, Lovelast is the indie pop project of singer/songwriter Chase Rutherford-Jenkins. Now based in San Francisco, Lovelast's style ranges from cinematic and soaring to minimalist and intimate.
Lovelast's first album December was released in late 2011, followed by the stripped-down Midwinter EP in early 2013. When Jenkins embarked on the 2015 full-length album Home—recorded in the midst of relocating from Texas to California—he began moving in a direction more focused on keys and programming. The sound continued to evolve with his most recent release, The Beauty and the Fire, recorded and mixed entirely in Jenkins' San Francisco apartment.
Lovelast is actively working on a new EP expected to be released in 2020, further refining the keys-driven sound of his recent work while remaining rooted in Jenkins' introspective lyrics and evocative melodies.
Lyrics
Shows
We were kids in shells of men
A winter gone two years and ten
When, in your hands, you took my head
And I was shaking in your bed
And the words fall out like knives
And they pierce me like your eyes
As you held your gaze to mine
And you pulled me deep inside
And I am broken now
And you don’t know how
Because you took your touch
But left the ghosts of us
Years would come, we’d bide the time
Hoping someday we’d make it right
Across an ocean, you would call
Knowing that I can’t help but fall
And you’d beg me not to leave
For there’s a timeline we could weave
Where we’d meld our broken parts
And what I would give if we could go back to the start
Cause I am broken now
And you don’t know how
Because you took your touch
But left the ghosts of us
Oh, I am broken now
And you don’t know how
Because you took your touch
But left the ghosts of us
Ooh
The ghosts of us
Ooh
The ghosts of us
The ghosts of us
The ghosts of us
I’m letting you know
That I am letting you go
In your hands, I am home
But I’ve got to let you go
I am letting you know
I am letting you go
In your hands, I am home
But I’ve got to let you go
