about

liner notes:

written and recorded in sept 1989, it is the true story about a lifetime
of loving one person. it is my most personal song. i have loved her since the day we met, and i will love her for ever.

Instrumentation:

its just me, playing and singing to my sweetie, bare fingerpicking my 12-string guitar, and playing lots of my flutes.

lyrics

lyrics:

i wanna know, where does the time go, time never goes slow,
time’s always gone before were done

and in the dream, i had today, it only seem, like yesterday,
not so long ago, when we was young

it still the same, when i’m not near you, call my name, i still can hear you, just like a song, across the years

and all the tears you never cried, and all the miles i didn’t ride,
you were always here, by my side

and now i know, where all the times gone, every day and each dawn,
each day has turned into a year

in my soul, deep where i keep them, as you sew, so shall you reap them. that’s where i go, every time

i need to know, where all the time went, every hour that we spent,
it never went away at all

its part of you, and part of me, like we are part of every thing
and just like time, we’ll always be
