lyrics

What are these stones for? I cannot say
And what are these hands for, if not the curve of your spine?
So, your soul slipped through this feeble grasp of time
And I could not hold you from your flight

We're caught in a world of flesh and stone
Were you searching for a home?
I was a poet and you were a queen

And if I could build castles...

Heavy is the night for green-eyed lady love
Songs that fit so right in the back of my mind
But what am I doing? I can't climb that wall
And I cannot catch you if you're not willing to fall

We're caught in a world of flesh and stone
Were you searching for a home?
I was a poet and you were a queen

And if I could build castles...

Waiting for the storyline to bring it back to you
Well that all depends on how the story gets told
So, what are these stones for? I guess I know
And what are these hands for without the curve of your spine?

Caught in the world of flesh and stone
Another soul flies off alone
And I was the poet
and you were just a dream...

I’m still waiting for my physical CD copy. I ordered back on March 2, 2023 and it said it would be here before March 18 but still waiting. Sent out two emails just wondering if it was sent and haven’t heard anything back. Next I will open a dispute with PayPal or BandCamp Ned

Like being transported to a beach town in California around sunset, knowing your evening is going to be filled with friends and maybe that special someone...but most importantly you've never heard of social media and you have no sense of doom like you do right now. Andronicus
