Back To You

On a highway. Hear those big big trucks whine
Going my way through the sands of time
If I asked you sweetly. Wonder if you'd stay
Times are hard, you got to go your own way
Driving down through six feet of snow
It's all around. Still, I got to go
And as my mind races ahead
Through the window frozen river bed
Endless headlights burning my eyes
Millions of miles falling behind
Every turn winds back to you
Phones off the hook, you left me, hanging for dead
Just the reflection in the highway ahead
Every road I take leads back to you
Just might be the things I never said
Wasted words lost in my head
Keep getting closer to further away
Night is falling greet a brand new day
Endless headlights burning my eyes
Millions of miles falling behind
Every turn, it winds back to you
Phones off the hook, left me hanging for dead
Just the reflection in the highway ahead
Every road I take leads back to you
Phones off the hook, left me hanging for dead
Just the reflection in the highway ahead
Every road I take leads back to you
It leads back to you
Every road
Leads back to you

Like Water
02:51

In my summer of discontent
Time came and time just went
You ran away so it seemed
Just like a broken dream
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Falling down all over me
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
It's like water drowning me
All my worries never seem to fade
Things we had, the plans we made
Guess I could just fly away
Not have to face another day
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Falling down all over me
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
It's like water drowning me
We can make it if we try
And understand the reasons why
Why
As the feelings on my heavy mind
Finding reasons to be alive
Through the dust I still can see
We all need to feel free
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
It's like water drowning me
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
It's like water now
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
It's like water drowning me
We all need to feel free

Back In The Day
04:32
|

|
Back in the day way back when
Running crazy with my old friends
How I wish I could go back again
To those warm summer nights around the watering hole
Before disco killed rock and roll
Its gone for good like the Dutchman's gold
Looking back man we had a blast
How the years went by so fast
Seems like none of the good times were built to last
Back in the day, all my troubles seemed so far away
I didn't have all these telephone calls to make or these bills to pay
Times have changed, familiar faces seem so strange
Always living in the minute wishing I was back in the day
All of my memories covered in dust
My muscle car is starting to rust
America in God we trust
Urban sprawl with a Spanish name
Just can't stop eminent domain
Nothing will ever ever be the same
Wondering where did everyone go
What came of me? No one will ever know
I lost touch such a long, long time ago
Back in the day, all my troubles seemed so far away
I didn't have all these telephone calls to make or these bills to pay
Times have changed, familiar faces seem so strange
Always living in the minute wishing I was back in the day
Didn't have a future, I didn't need a plan
Playing tunes til sunrise in a rock and roll band
Back in the day, all my troubles seemed so far away
I didn't have all these telephone calls to make and these bills to pay
Times have changed, familiar faces seem so strange
Always living in the minute wishing I was back in the day
Always living in the minute wishing I was back in the day
Always living in the minute wishing I was back in the day

Brand New World
03:33
|
|||
|
In a brand new world we'd have wings to fly
In a brand new world never ask for reasons why
We could try to understand
All the pain would slowly die
In a brand new world we'd hold each others hands
In a brand new world we would always understand
When we cry its tears of happiness
No more hate, no more pain, no more sorrow
But you know I'm just a man wondering if i can
Make it thru another day
In this brave new world where no one understands
In this crazy world no more holding hands
As we try to make sense of it all
And we try not to fall
But you know I'm just a man hoping i can
Live to see another day
In this brand new world where were always holding hands
In this brand new world we would always understand
When we cry its tears of happiness
No more hate, no more pain, no more sorrow
In this brand new world we'd have wings to fly
In this brand new world never ask for reasons why
In this brand new world
In this brand new world
In this brave new world
In this brand new world

Nothing New
04:19
|
|||
|
Is there anything we can say or do
To try to convince a fool
The numbers never seem to add up
Looking for something new
The rules are always changing it's never the same
It's written in our name
It's true
It's nothing new
Like words falling from the sky
Colors too many to choose
Frozen in the sands of time
So desperate with nothing to lose
The rules are always changing
It's never the same
It's written in our names
It's true
It's just nothing new
There's so much to hold on to
As we try to be true to our hearts
So much darkness everywhere
Tearing us all apart
Rules are always changing
It's never the same
It's written from the pain
It's true
It's nothing new
It's true
It's nothing new
It's true

Blink Of An Eye
06:00
|
|||
|
Just looking out your window
Lying on your tear stained pillow
Well oh my weeping willow
We die a little every day
Just looking for the reason
To live up to all the treason
Still burning like a demon
Possessed inside
Oh my my
Pick your reasons to try
As your days flew by
In the blink of an eye
Still living an illusion
Lead by heartbreak and confusion
You held together like
Just like a castle in the sand
Oh my my
How your days flew by
Holding onto something
So broken on the inside
Oh my my
Pick your reasons to cry
As your days flew by
In the blink of an eye
Oh my my
Pick your reasons to die
As your days flew by
In the blink of an eye
In the blink of an eye
In the blink
Of an eye

Gonna crucify me
Gonna crucify me
Gonna crucify me
Like you did before
Gonna crucify me
Gonna crucify me
Gonna crucify me
Like you did before
Gonna pull down the blackout shades
See the light start to fade
Like the words falling from your lips
From your head to your fingertips
Got my head hanging on a fence
Make it stop make some sense
Like the words that were never said
Before the whole thing went dead
Gonna crucify me
Gonna crucify me
Gonna crucify me
Like you did before
Gonna crucify me
Gonna crucify me
Gonna crucify me
Like you did before
Like you did before
Windy day on a windy road
Promise bought, bent and sold
Like the love that we find
Seem to change can't stop time
Flowers wilt and flowers grow
Take it fast gonna take it slow
Why you care what the others say
Just save it for a rainy day
Save it for your rainy day
Save it for your rainy day
Save it for your rainy day
Crucify me
Crucify me
Crucify me
Like you did before
Crucify me
Crucify me
Crucify me
Like you did before
You did before
Like you did before
Like you did before
Like you did before
Like you did before
Like you did before
Like you did before
Did before
Did before

Just You And I
03:45

I saw you looking at me
In a sea of people you were all I could see
I knew then that it was bound to be
Let's watch the world go by
Baby just you and I
Mama always said you better seize the day
If you find that someone don't let em slip away oh no
Now im searching for something clever to say
Let's watch the world go by
Baby just you and I
No yesterday no tomorrow
We've only got here and now
Maybe together we'll make it
If only our love can show us how
It's getting crazy on the left and the right
Let's stay at home on Saturday night
Ain't missing nothing with you by my side
We'll watch the world go by
Let's watch the world go by
Just let the world go by
Baby just you and I
Baby just you and I
Baby just you and I

Drink It Away
03:20
|

|
Been falling been crawling
Feel like the end is calling
Underneath the sheets all day
Been flying been crying
Don't even feel like trying
Rock bottom is on it's way
Still waiting still fading
Can't hear what there saying
Just trying to make it through the night
Bells ringing tears stinging
Voices of the angels singing
Summons me into the light
Pass the bottle have another drink
Makes you feel good don't you think
Wash away the problem each and every day
Might as well drink it away
Pass the bottle have another drink
Makes you feel good don't you think
Wash away the problem each and every day
Might as well drink it away
So pass the bottle and have another drink
Feeling better don't you think
Wash away the problem each and every day
Might as well drink it away

Moses and Me
06:32
|

There will be time for rest when the day is done
400 miles neath the burning sun
Living in sin there will be price to pay
When the whole wide world washes away
There will be plenty for us soon enough
As far as the eye can see
Just a little walk through the wilderness
Into the land of milk and honey
And when your children go and do what they asked of you
Back by the burning tree
We'll go downtown and hang around
You and Moses and me
You and Moses and me
You and Moses and me
Been watching people struggle through the walls of time
Trading their joy for pain
But when the feast turned to famine and that sunny day
Turned to 40 nights of rain
There will be plenty for us soon enough
As far as the eye can see
Just a little walk through the wilderness
Into the land of milk and honey
And when your children go and do what they asked of you
Back by the burning tree
Gonna go downtown and hang around
You and Moses and me
Just you and Moses and me
Just you and Moses and me
I used to find comfort in those shiny things
Made by the minds of men
But now the world is too cold for my old soul
Better get out while you can
There will be plenty for us soon enough
As far as the eye can see
Just a little walk through the wilderness
Into the land of milk and honey
And when your children go and do what they asked of you
Back by the burning tree
Gonna go downtown and hang around
You and Moses and me
Just you and Moses and me
Just you and Moses and me
Just you and Moses and me

Sweet Juanita Encinitas, California
Americana and sometimes
“Spacey Hippy Rock”,
with thought provoking lyrics, surrounded in a bed of
organic, analog instruments played by humanoids
After a long absence of playing music together, John and Rand got hired to play a gig amidst the height of COVID. At the gig, they came up with the beginnings of the song “Back To You”. The boys soon realized that two heads are better than one.
