lyrics

I left my wife
And moved to Denver
Trying to find me a home
I fell and faltered
Towards California
Where the days roll by nice and slow

I lost some teeth in Albuquerque
Oh, Lord, I don't know what's come over me

I fell in love
And love fell on me
Not with no tangible thing
I feel I was born to sing and stumble
And run along behind my dreams

Feel I was born to know the cool wind
To close my eyes as it rolls over me

I slept for long
Dreamt of Los Angeles
I heard there's people made of clay
Awoke, on all sides was sprawling cement
Enough to drive a man insane

I stopped a singer on the sidewalk
Just so I could hear my own self talk

I left my wife
And moved to Denver
Trying to find me a home
I fell and faltered
Towards California
Where the days roll by nice and slow

I lost some teeth in Albuquerque
Oh, Lord, I don't know what's come over me

There's something so empowering and inspiring about this album's creation process- wholly improvised with a resulting immediacy that you just cannot artificially replicate. I have listened to this in my car so many times and it still sounds fresh to me. sandtimerband
