    Story Behind the Song
    This song was never slated to appear on the album. But then a friend of mine, Jim Johanson (who plays the congas and one of the shakers at the end and who engineered the song), wanted to do a studio date and asked me if I had any unrecorded material. We recorded it at the university-owned recording studio in Athens, Ohio. I had never met Adam or Sean when they showed up to the session, and so one can imagine how ecstatic I was when I discovered what great musicians they are. When I heard the first few tracks, I resolved that I absolutely had to have it on my album. Thanks to Jim for making it all possible.

    Lyrics
    Don't forget
    this empty nest
    is nothing
    compared with
    what you've seen.
    And happiness
    is powerless
    to stop what you believe
    from coming clean.

    In a daze
    on your way
    to heaven
    or someplace
    in between.
    Too far to go
    the pot of gold
    is way too out of reach
    to keep you sold.
    And you've found
    that somewhere else
    will almost do.

    Pieces of your life
    just bring you down,
    and you've forgotten
    what you are when you can
    throw aside these
    useless, idle vows,
    and take a look around
    at what's been
    leading you nowhere
    but home.

    Far away
    another day
    is waiting
    to bring you
    from your cloud.
    And while you're gone,
    it passes on
    to someone who is
    ready to come down.
    And you think
    you've found the best
    place to hide out.

    Pieces of your life
    still bring you down,
    and you've forgotten
    what you are when you can
    throw aside these
    useless, idle vows,
    and take a look around
    at what's been
    leading you nowhere
    but home.
