Lyrics
EARLY WINTER DAZE © 2008
Rolling revelations have started again
Pictures on the mantel faces of my friends
Late morning coffees under hazy winter skies –
And drinking whiskey on those cold and smokey nights
Early winter daze
Neither happy or amazed
Comforts the inner expectations of my life
Songwriter-singers, they seem to flood this town run
their dreary day-to-day
keeps the rain comin’ down
so’ the sun keeps a hidin’
just don’t seem to wanna play today
An’she’s no longer smilin’ wonder what’s wrong now
Early winter daze
Neither happy or amazed
cast their misty shadows in the back of my mind
Hold your pride in me
Hold your silence please
Hold your precious lies
in times like these
Rolling confessions
here we go again
Hands in my pockets
talking with my friends (an all those…)Late morning coffees
under hazy winter skies –
And drinking whiskey on those cold and smokey nights
Early winter daze
Neither happy or amazed
Pictures of my life in a different place , and time –
