Last year I woke up one morning and suddenly for the first time in my life I realized that I’m not just getting older , I AM OLD. The result of that early morning revelation was this song. I appreciate all that take the time to listen and comment. Tom RealTracks in style: 2503:Piano, Acoustic, HeldChords 085 RealTracks in song: ~409:Fiddle, Background George Ev 085 RealTracks in style: 838:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm PopBalladClean Ev 085 RealTracks in song: ~542:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm Dreamy Ev 085 RealTracks in song: ~363:Pedal Steel, Background Ev 085 Royalty Free Loops, Multitrack Instrument and Song Files and Multitrack Drums from Drums on Demand Recorded in Logic ProX, Alloy2, Nectar2, Ozone6, Waves LnMB, Waves Vocal Rider Vocals, Tom Adams https://soundcloud.com/tommyad/theres-only-so-much-timehttp://tommyadamsmusic.com/musichttp://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=13443880 There’s Only So Much Time I’d love to tell you I’m not scared of growing old I’m not sure I can sell you on something you already know That’s when we find there’s only so much time I’ve heard the song before i’ve read the book you sent God I Wish I could give you more i know how the movie ends That’s when we find there’s only so much time I hope I remember when we fell in love it was a cold november but it turned out warm enough I guess I'm more than OK with an early fall At the end of the day it was worth it all I’ve heard the song before i’ve read the book you sent God I Wish I could give you more i know how the movie ends That’s when we find there’s only so much time Live our lives in the day to day Never think it will go away all the love and dreams we’ve found one day will come crashing down Think too much it’ll mess you up And just when you think you’ve had enough Along comes a vision and then you see clear as day this was meant to be I’ve heard the song before i’ve read the book you sent God I Wish I could give you more i know how the movie ends That’s when we find there’s only so much time ©2015 Thomas Adams

Tom, What a great sound! Everything, absolutely EVERYTHING about this is as professional as anything out there in the market place. You really have outstanding production chops. I am constantly amazed at how incredible your mixes sound. There there's your signature vocals... first class! Really, really, REALLY enjoyable. Regards, Noel P.S. In relation to... I realized that I’m not just getting older , I AM OLD ... have you tried setting the bar that defines 'old' a bit higher? I'm constantly revising it's location.

All I can say is that I love this as much as some of my favorite Dylan tunes.
I am simply stunned.
Brilliant.

"I hope I remember when we fell in love
it was a cold november but it turned out warm enough
I guess I'm more than OK with an early fall
At the end of the day it was worth it all"
Great lines Tommy! Really enjoyed this!
Regards,
Bob

Hi Tommy,
There appears to be a lot of deep introspection within this well thought out song
You have sung, orchestrated, and condensed it all into a beautiful song

Tom,
A beautiful write. You are really packing a wallop lately in your lyric... so full of thought. "From the heart" lyrics.
Beautiful production and mix. Everything sounds great. The piano is particularly nice.
Your vocals continue to pack a punch, too.
Super.
