lyrics

LYRICS:

Come out and look around, sink back below the ground. Residing up and down this sunken town
The calling of a distant horn, the rising of the seven suns. The horizon has an early morning song for you.

So leave the night behind, make the call. Leave your life and waste it all. may the winds forever fill your sails.

Avoiding your eyes, the seat of the soul don't compromise. And so it takes me by surprise, that which I already had in mind. It chews you up and spits you out alive.
Till the morning light it makes you say, you know it only wants to take you for a ride and I, not certain if I'm dead or alive, decide that it ain't even worth my time.

So I try to leave the night behind, make the call. Leave your life and waste it all, and may the winds forever fill your sails.

I think that you should know to let it go, just let it go. It's alright, we embraced the whole night and then we said our goodbyes in the morning light.

Oh how I long for this album in vinyl format! Such smoothness. Such warmth. Such execution. This music begs to be taken along and woven into memories. Everyone I’ve shared this album with has loved it. The music speaks far and wide. Shouting out to a fellow follower, Brian Lehmann, for his excellent taste in music. If not for him, I likely would have never stumbled upon this absolute gem! Plinchmo Larduktin
