lyrics

All I have left reminds me of you is a pair of old red shoes
Tomorrow’s not a long time when you are young
And the heartache doesn’t shake you up
Whenever the song is sung

But I wish for all the best for everyone I used to know
We had fun and shaped each other’s souls
Didn’t think about the future or how you done me wrong
Even though the time has come

I’m ill, I’m sick, I’m not well
All those who turn up their noses can all go to hell
I’d rather earn the pain inside
Than give way to foolish pride

I wanna live
I wanna give
I wanna give myself to you

I wrote a sad song about when we were kids
And pushed my fingers into my eyelids
The tears came through, the signs became blurry
Red light above the track says my trains in no hurry

Bad times together better than bad times alone
Scroll through old photos find your number on my phone
Then I pause for a minute and put it away
Today is not the day

I saw you on the street just the other day
You saw me we both looked the other way
I wasn’t sad for the future or nostalgic for the past
I just thought we would last

Just when I thought I heard it all, along comes this incredible work of art and musical perfection to blow me completely away! Such variety all across the synthwave spectrum and utterly unique as well! So, so much love went into this production and some of the tracks nearly brought me to tears! I recommend that everyone buy this amazing and superb album right away!!! David Rotenburger
