about

I don't tend to write a lot of deeply personal and autobiographical songs, but this album features a lot of unusually intimate songs. Not very long ago, through the miracle of modern science, I found someone that I had been searching for my whole life. I wrote the bulk of this song almost immediately. It was a good day.

lyrics

Once, long ago
I set my sights
on distant lights
Oh, the miles I’d go
maps and charts
and seasick hearts

kept singing you a sunrise song
dreaming you could sing along
can’t imagine how my whole life long
just want to say I’ve seen your face
it’s a real nice day

up, I gave you up
a fairytale
I lost the trail
star, behind a star
I searched so far
and here you are

kept singing you a sunrise song
dreaming you could sing along
can’t imagine how my whole life long
just want to say I’ve seen your face
it’s a real nice day
