This one has been in the making for a few weeks... It's a co-write between Herb Hartley and David Snyder. Another collab we've completed. A big THANK YOU to Dave for his inspiration, point of view and words, that helped to take this in a slightly different direction with his contribution to the writing on the chorus and verses when I couldn't see the forest for the trees being in the way.

Lyrics by Hartley & Snyder

Well she walked through the door on a Friday night Feeling so good, and looking so right
I've seldom seen a girl like that, man she's such a sight
She's trying to hold to something, that's been a long time gone
Trying now to capture it from the magic of a song

There's a lot of years and a lot of tears passed under that old bridge
There's a boy she knew, from another time, Back on Lost Love Ridge
The clock, turns so slowly, but the years flew by so fast
Trying to find someone to love, but it never seemed to last

Fade to Grey, Fade To Grey
Same thing tomorrow, just like yesterday
It's only life and it just gets in the way
You live and learn, the world just turns then it slowly fades to grey

solo

Write just one more line, about lost time as you watch the setting sun
This crazy life keeps rolling on, with so much left undone
Reaching out for someone who was there for you before
But your hand still comes up empty as you close and lock that door


Production in Sonar X1.
