lyrics

CARRY ON

Summer’s gone without a reason
Or maybe not, I just don’t know
& maybe fall is just a season
& not some strange kind of letting go

To me the hours are just numbers
I see the minutes tick away
& the alarm is set to “slumber”
Oh but the sky is slowly turning gray

All the dead I’ve ever known
Have come & gone
By the time I see the dawn
I’ll see the sun rise
I’ll see it coming down
And I’ve only just begun
To carry on

I feel like a boat out on that river
I feel the current pull both ways
It’s cold enough to make me shiver
Here comes another brand-new day

"There’s substance, originality, & cleverness at work here. I admire how these people take something that already exists traditionally & reinterpret it with their own ingredients to create something truly effective that resonates. This record is straight whiskey. Tom Waits would be proud."—AMERICANA HIGHWAYS ... more
