Hi All, Here's something new - this is called Light Years. All the graves are in the backyard And people move on there’s no doubt Now I see the changing of the guard Separate pathways a different route No need to wave flags in the air The stars won’t see them anyway I sometimes just look up and stare Still the same sky different day And it's full speed into the light years Shift through all the tired dreams There’s a new moon on the mountain If I can fly this old machine Take a bus to New York City And see your face in every mile This old Trailways is a pity It can run but it can’t fly And it's full speed into the light years Shift through all the tired dreams There’s a new moon on the mountain If I can fly this old machine All BIAB Tracks: 1036: Bass, Electric, NorthernRockBallad Ev 065 1596: Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming Pop16ths Ev 065 1600: Guitar, Acoustic, High-Strung Rhythm Pop16ths Ev 065 1599: Guitar, Electric, Rhythm Pop16ths Ev 065 Loop: Chillout/Chillout - dimensions_145_choir RealDrums: RockNorthern a:Snare, HiHat Closed, b:Snare As always - thanks for listening!

A cool write, as always, Bob...
"Take a bus to New York City
And see your face in every mile"
Love how that says so much in such a simple statement.
Another excellent arrangement. And a solid mix.
Terrific listen.

I really, really enjoyed this song. I especially loved the lyrics. Particularly "Shift through all the tired dreams. There’s a new moon on the mountain. If I can fly this old machine". Great job!
Cheers,
Ember

Bravo, Robert Really easy on the ears, and a nice gentle listen for me. I really like the slow build throughout. Some really nice lyrics here to, and I'm fond of the chord progressions. You should be proud of this one - thanks for sharing!
Cheers,
Deryk

Well written and well delivered. And as always the band is hittin' the note.
Deryk mentioned both the build and the chord progression...yep, very effective.
floyd mention in part:
"Take a bus to New York City
And see your face in every mile
This old Trailways is a pity
It can run but it can’t fly"
As he said so much is said in those lines. The old bus, the destination, run vs fly, the face, etc. Rich and textured imagery in four lines.
Outstanding.
