It's my new single "Old Enough (To Dream)!" This song is the first single off my upcoming LP "Mystery Trip," and I'm so pleased it's finally in the world.
It went on quite a journey from home demo to recording with Matt Rendon at Midtown Island Studio here in Tucson to further overdubs in my home studio then working with a new mastering engineer Frank Bair - and I think it turned out great. I hope you enjoy it half as much as I did making it.
So - are you?
lyrics
Used to be, a man could use his body, ha ha
I’d break my blood, I’d break my bones, I’d break my muscles just to make a home
For you and me, just you and me
Scared to live, Scared to die
We’d run around in circles in the same disguise
If I could make a break from the same mistakes
Maybe the memory just fades away
Are you old enough to dream
Old enough to dream
Are you old enough to dream
Yes I’m old enough to dream
Used to be, the summer was a revolution
I’d see the signs, and sacred symbols, inside her eyes, I’d start to tremble
You and me, we never learned to let it cool
Up all night, side by side, in the cemetery silence, we’d let it ride
Scared to live, Scared to die
We’d run around in circles in the same disguise
If I could make a break from the same mistakes
Maybe the memory just fades away
I can’t believe you came into my life
I may never know the reason why
I can't believe you stayed right by my side
I don’t need to know the reason why
Scared to live, Scared to die
We’d run around in circles in the same disguise
If I could make a break from the same mistakes
Maybe the memory just fades away
Are you old enough to dream
Old enough to dream
Are you old enough to dream
Yes I’m old enough to dream
Are you old enough to dream
Old enough to dream
Are you old enough to dream
Yes I’m old enough to dream
