Description
"Flicker and Fade" represents a return to roots for this Tennessee expatriate. The songs explore life in the rear-view and the road ahead, with a sound inspired by the high desert spaces of the American Southwest- a good place to get your thinkin' done. David performs all the instruments on the record as well, in the tradition of the Nashville multi-instrumentalist.
Lyrics
ALRIGHT Follow the sun across the sky And chase that teardrop from your eye Some days it rains, some days it shines Some days are yours, and some are mine Pick up your things and let's depart We stayed a season in your heart Sometimes you think, sometimes you act Some places you cannot go back But it's alright This is our place, this is our time, and it's alright I got yours, and you got mine, and it's alright And if you find yourself in doubt Just do what you please, and it's alright with me Catch the day before it burns 'Cos this one never will return Sometimes the road just turns you 'round Sometimes the engine makes no sound Before the sun decides we're gone And all the streetlights die at dawn Some days are ash and some are flame And sometimes I'm the one to blame But it's alright This is our place, this is our time, and it's alright I got yours, and you got mine, and it's alright And when you find yourself in doubt Just do what you please, and it's alright with me You can dig a hole to catch the rain The sky just fills it up again Some days it comes, some days it goes Some things you say, and some you know But it's alright This is our day, this is our time, and it's alright You got yours, you wound up with mine, but it's alright And when you find yourself in doubt Just do what you please, and it's alright with me ©2010 Fortune's Foe Music, ASCAP
