Description
This song was recorded in 1996 on analog 1" tape by Brian Doser at My Other Hat Studios in Lynn, MA and mastered by Jonathan Wyner at MWorks in Cambridge, MA, released on my CD, "Toots' Rambles". I play acoustic guitar and Kris Delmhorst plays cello and we sing together live. I just converted this to mp3 in iTunes.
Kris is really super and has a new CD out now, Shotgun Singer, on Signature Sounds. since we played together she's gone onto much acclaim, and I saw her the other day and I thought I'd post this up here today to put in a little plug for her, since she's a dear friend, a great person, and hyper-talented to boot. Viewers of ABC's "Brothers and Sisters" can hear Kris during this week's show, as KD's "Blue Adeline" will show up somewhere in the soundtrack. The show airs today, Sunday, 4/27 at 10:00pm EST.

Lyrics
Ice forms on the pools of dark
as night pours through every crack
in the fabric of this fraying heart
growing more helpless and inadequate
no matter how deep the yearning
no one dares make contact
Like vapor trails in the sky fading
into the endless night no they won't be back
And I've been down to the baggage claim
The carousel turning round and round
Looking for a label that bears the right name
But what been lost must never be found
in all this sadness all around
In the lonely light before before dawn
The world casts its judgement
down like a pair of dice rolling of the sweaty palm
of a gambler lost in the moment
Ice forms on the rim of the future
as the winter grows colder for this generation
where the bomb was the only thing that was sure
and love was the only thing impossible to mention
And I've been down to the baggage claim
The carousel turning round and round
Looking for a label that bears the right name
But what been lost must never be found
in all this sadness all around
as night pours through every crack
in the fabric of this fraying heart
growing more helpless and inadequate
no matter how deep the yearning
no one dares make contact
Like vapor trails in the sky fading
into the endless night no they won't be back
And I've been down to the baggage claim
The carousel turning round and round
Looking for a label that bears the right name
But what been lost must never be found
in all this sadness all around
In the lonely light before before dawn
The world casts its judgement
down like a pair of dice rolling of the sweaty palm
of a gambler lost in the moment
Ice forms on the rim of the future
as the winter grows colder for this generation
where the bomb was the only thing that was sure
and love was the only thing impossible to mention
And I've been down to the baggage claim
The carousel turning round and round
Looking for a label that bears the right name
But what been lost must never be found
in all this sadness all around
