    Story Behind the Song
    Song I came up with and feel in love with. I'm still not sure the Jester thing isn't too corny but the word old time storyteller just wouldn't fit. I think the chorus was inspired by Dylan coming to town. After it was recorded and I added the radio static stuff I remembered that Dan Cray had a tune with TV over it called "filmstrip". After realizing this it occured to me that my guitar figure on the verses is not too unlike filmstrip either. I talked to Dan and we decided that if it ever comes to it - we can share the $.47 that the song will make in artist cash. We can save towards some bubble gum.

    Lyrics
    I find the door left open
    the leaves are falling down
    you left behid what's smoldering
    and I watched you try to drown

    with time it's growing haunted
    the parts are now decayed
    bare branches stretch into the sky
    there's nothing more to say

    and the jester has returned
    holding court he'll never fade
    he saved the best stories for now
    and he's warned us - that we're saved.

    Broke down engine rusting
    as the mist is falling down
    sullen figures drifting through the haze
    dragging the ghost down

    searching for a meaning
    at the other side of life
    you're left with these yarns and scattered tales
    to bargain with the night.
