lyrics

I caught a song just the other day
Ran like the wind through my fingers and slipped away
And down on the beach shore I did stand
With a lifetime of memories in my hand

And they followed me
Anywhere in this world I should choose to seek
They followed me
Everywhere
Where I've been, where I am, where I'll be
Where the morning sun strikes the sea
Where I find myself lost in between
Where the present mind meets a memory
And I go searching for another day to fly

This is an ode to the days gone by
And all the lost former friends in the blink of an eye
Got the world turned around, left you spun on your side
Now another sun, she fades and she's falling down on me
Well I tried to keep the pace but the clockwork's running free
So I stand amidst the haze
Another faded memory
And I go searching for another day to fly

I walked along down by the moon
Fell to my knees I had nothing left to lose
And I laid there for quite a while
With a lifetime of memories running wild

And they followed me
Anywhere in this world I should choose to seek
They followed me
Everywhere
Where I've been, where I am, where I'll be
Where the morning sun strikes the sea
Where I find myself lost in between
Where the present mind meets a memory
And I go searching for another day to fly

This is an ode to the days gone by
And all the lost former friends in the blink of an eye
Got the world turned around, left you spun on your side
Now another sun, she fades and she's falling down on me
Well I tried to keep the pace but the clockwork's running free
So I stand amidst the haze
Another faded memory
And I go searching for another day to fly

Josh Ward Taylor New York, New York

Taylor is one of many contemporary singer-songwriters who plants one foot firmly in the roots of artists such as Bob Dylan and Neil Young while at the same time pushing forward with his own unique voice. And Taylor’s particular voice so imbued with a sense of honesty and earnestness that it is almost impossible not to welcome each of his songs with open arms.-American Songwriter ... more
