Lyrics
MEMORIES CAN’T TAKE YOU BACK AGAIN.


Did you ever gaze out at yourself?
Deep inside the pictures on your shelf.
Smiling back at you from long ago
Lost in time a silent picture show.

And do you ever see someone you loved?
Who once took your breath away and you placed above
Everything else you should have done
But a heaving heart is such a smokin’ gun.

And memories can’t take you back again
Can’t fix those broken hearts or forsaken friends.
Can never wipe away what you did that day
No memory will take you back my friend.

Will you ever get a chance to mend?
The bitter words and letters that you sent.
The battle plans and money that you spent
An’ all the time you spent sitting on the fence….

Defiantly has
that 60-70's sound and feel to it. The photo is a classic. Really adds a complete statement to the production.

I dig it.
The production complements the vocals so well. Really cool tune. Harp reminds me of the Mark Olson/Jayhawks early stuff a bit along with some British invasion
Check out my latest song called Goodbye
