    Story Behind the Song
    Rodney Stigall: Lead vocals, guitar.

    Jimi Gonzalez: Keyboard, backing vocals and programming.

    Adam Waltemire: backing vocals

    Adam had sent some out the lyrics to a song called "Dusty Old Picture" in hopes of Jimi and Rodney writing the music. After nearly a week of silence, Rodney showed up with a great outline for what became "Encore." The story is similar to the original song, but it is coming from a more positive direction. Together, all three band members worked out a final draft of the lyrics and then went to work on the song.

    If you'd like to hear Rodney's original demo, it is available at www.mp3.com/rtrdemos .

    Lyrics
    Encore
    Just like that, she's here again.
    A picture from long ago
    without the scars to show
    for the time that's passed.

    These eyes I've never seen with before.
    In my mind I see
    This little girl lookin' at me.
    I'm unaware of the time that's passed.

    So long yesterday...
    So long yesterday...
    A schoolboy reaction to a real world situation
    So long yesterday

    Who's this girl standing near the door?
    With the lips I've kissed
    And the soul I've missed
    She's unaware that she's been on my mind

    Despite the things that time may have done
    Some moments never pass
    though they go so fast
    It's not enough to take you from my mind.

    So Long...

    And you're haunting me this way
    Out of sight, not mind, I don't know what to say
    and the words they seem to orbit in my mind
    I speak them with my eyes & hope you read between the lines

    So Long.......
