If you listen close you'll hear your blood as it screams
Through the narrow laberynth of your veins
There's a memory in every single thing!
There's a miracle in every memory
So may the light shine down always
May it shine on everything we'll ever see
I've been digging with tired, trembling hands
Trying to free your spirit from the sand
There's a secret that I have never told
It keeps me warm whenever she grows cold
See I was never really altogether sold
On her ever-loving heart of gold
But may the light shine down always
May it shine on everything we'll ever see
We're all alone-from where I stand
As just the shadow of some brighter man
I no longer expect more than the worst
This tragedy so well rehearsed
Fact: Tomo Nakayama is one of the greatest songsmiths working today. He's also pretty much the sweetest soul around. I feel honored that he lent his talents to "Farewell, tender heart." The Josey Dears
So, I lived in Seattle for 13 frickin' years and was never introduced to King Dude or his music. Now I'm crashing on a couch in Brooklyn listening to this shit through headphones and it's slaying me! The Josey Dears
This cat can do no wrong. All self recorded and produced. Reminds me of early K Records stuff mixed with the Talking heads (or something.) Otherworldly, really. The kinda music that starts trends. The Josey Dears
