VAPOR TRAILS
WE WENT WALKING ON A COLD NIGHT
AND TALKED ABOUT THE HOLY GRAILS
THE WORDS HUNG IN THE MOONLIGHT
LIKE VAPOR TRAILS
WE TRIED A LITTLE HONESTY
AND PULLED OFF ALL THE VEILS
ONLY TO RETURN TO
THE VAPOR TRAILS
YOU AND I, JETLINERS IN THE SKY
DRAWING WHITE LINES WAY UP HIGH
CROSSING PATHS, BUT EVERYTIME WE DO
FADE AWAY INTO THE BLUE
YOU AND I, OUTLIERS IN THE SKY
DRAWING CHALK LINES WAY UP HIGH
TRY CONNECTING, BUT EVERYTIME WE DO
FADE AWAY INTO THE BLUE
WALKING ON A COLD NIGHT
ICY FOG EXHALES
LIKE AN OLD DREAM MEMORY
VAPOR TRAILS
VAPOR TRAILS
HEADS OR TAILS
VAPOR TRAILS

Hey Paul,
Thanks kindly for your comments. Vapor is fun, kind of a reggae, travis picked tune…we may be onto something there.
Always appreciate your ears and wisdom.

Hey Joe,
Haven’t heard from you in a bit, missed you at Wes’ Party (we can always use more good players). Hope all is well, and thanks kindly for listening.

The lyrics are so, well, existential. I couldn’t find the damn exit, so I listened to it over and over again.
Seriously, IMHO, this is your best song to date.

Hello Jean Paul,
There’s no exit? Exit-stential. That’s why we make music loops, n’est-ce pas?
Thanks, Bobby. We like it, too.

I haven’t been to the site for a while. I couldn’t believe this one from the moment it got running.
It’s one of those tunes that gives you shivers. On to something is right.

Hey Patrick,
It always means a lot when a song we’ve worked on affects such an ear and a heart as yours. Makes it all worthwhile. Wes and I thank you very kindly.

Love the harmonics dancing over that bass line.

Hey Mike,
Thanks kindly. That stuff is kinda beautiful, no?
It’s funny that this tune began as a solo finger picked acoustic demo, and ended up in reggae land.
Thanks again, Mikey.
