lyrics

Forgotten Tune
I went down
to the river
and cried
even though
it was the best
day of my
life
so much left
under the bed
of a pink and purple sky
sunset goodbye
a vacation
taken too late
but we made it
and we know
but can't say it
stuck
rambling away
glued to pieces
of each other
that we'll never
get back
still I'd rather
not forget
the best vacation
we never took

your love was so pure
I forgot
I never knew
what forever meant
now tomorrow's
come instead
to collect the debt
of my promises unkept
mercy her
mercy her

days steal sunshine
moon steals the night

married to
highway blues
and a gas tank
full of
nostalgic you
my fleeting
frequency
searching pacific waves
to ease my
Westward soul
before the sun sets
and the moon steals
my borrowed heart
from you

your love was so pure
I forgot
I never knew
what forever meant
now tomorrow's
come instead
to collect the debt
of my promises unkept
I loved so hard
I ran out

set her
set her free
I'm beggin
begging please
set her
set her free
I'm begging

married to
highway blues
pacific souls
drowning
in Westward frequencies
of forgotten tunes
trying
to catch up to you
before the sun sets
and the moon
steals
our last
pieces
of each other

High Pony Brooklyn, New York

Never in style but never played out either. Honesty, rawness, sincerity and real instruments are always pretty cool.
