Story Behind the Song
This song evolved over the years, culminating in this version. I'd been playing it, with changing lyrics for many years, and only when I sat down to record it did the lyrics solidify.
Lyrics
Days passed on slowly,
Days passed on slower still, my friend,
Then I saw her,
I'll never see her face again...
When you see me crying, under skies of grey,
You'll know that the only purpose in this life is not to die in vain.
Weeks went past slowly,
Weeks went past slower still, my friend,
Then I saw you,
I never saw you til the end...
The witching hour, oh how it's come and how it's passed.
These precious nights, they've gone too fast.
