This is one of the first songs Jon R. and I ever wrote together. Very early 1980’s and this demo was recorded down in my basement 8-track studio. As I remember it, it was just Jon and myself on all the instruments; Jon playing acoustic and electric guitars, plus bass with me playing keyboards, percussion and drums plus vocals. By today’s standards a bit rough sounding, but remember it was recorded 30+ years ago in a basement….
Lyrics
I watch the years go by
Pass in review
I’ve seen the seasons change
But not half as fast as you
I watched you walk away
And take my heart
I let that memory
Fade away into the dark
Still you left your mark
Cause it showed today
Someone said you were back
And I felt it all again
Year by year coming back
Solo
Still you left your mark
Cause it showed today
When someone said you were back
And I felt it all again
Year by year coming back
It’s all coming back
