lyrics
After Awhile
Verse 1
Midnight, laughin’ with music. You and I tryin’ to lose it.
Oh, I still know all your secrets. And I can still see your smile.
I know we swore we’d never lose touch, but God it’s been a while.
Chorus 1
But the seasons change and it slips away, as the setting sun melts away each day.
And the telephone gets harder to dial.
But because our roads don’t often cross, don’t think my love for you is lost.
The thought of you still always makes me smile.
Even after a while.
Verse 2
Well I been workin’ and playin’ too. Doin’ all the things you’re supposed to do
Oh life, sure keeps you busy. Sometimes it just drives me wild.
And everyone that I talk to says, “We should all get together in awhile”.
Bridge
But when I’m seein’ you after a while, I’ll admit I’m feeling insecure.
Don’t know what to say or where we left off or what I have to offer you anymore… anymore.
But how ‘bout
Verse 3
Midnight, laughin’ with music? You and I should go out and lose it.
Oh, we could still share our secrets and there is still reason to smile.
And even if we should lose touch, well at least we’ve got awhile.
Chorus 2
So let the seasons change, let it slip away, let the setting sun melt away each day.
No matter what you do it’s gonna drive you wild.
But I can’t say I feel a thing is lost. I hold my love for you in my fondest thoughts,
It makes me strong as I walk along each mile.
Ending
Oh its strange how time can change us, but you still have that same old smile.
Time could never make us strangers, no matter how long awhile.
So after a while. After a while. I’ll see you after a while… After a while…

Woozy, rollicking indie rock that's thick and humid, searching vocals set against pealing guitars. Also available on cassette. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 22, 2016
