And the rocks and stones and the vetiver
Rat's nest put holes in the rabbit fur
Sun's coming up and the moment it feels like a purr
And the rocks and stones and the vetiver
Labdanum, ylang ylang, and wine
Velvet couch, velvet glove, velvet mind
Only Lorena you know that it just takes time
Falling apart and I live in a built-in rhyme
Drinking at the Stonewall, dripping ceiling
Kissing in the dark, you know we're feeling
She broke my heart but at least I got a shower in
I don't regret it for shе didn't want to go traveling
Lately I don't recognizе the signs
I'm in the back of the pickup most of the time
It's all in the past but the past is still alive
The root of me lives in the ballast by the mainline
So I return to the rocks and stones
Depend on the books and poems
Return to the rocks and stones
Return to the rocks, return to the rocks
Return to the rocks and stones
Leave everything that I know
Return to the rocks and stones
Return to the rocks
Rat's nest put holes in the rabbit fur

Return to the rocks, return to the rocks
Return to the rocks and stones

Return to the rocks and stones

How long does it take an audience to realize a good song and a great album?

Just released 2 days ago, & Bill is playing it...no reason to go anywhere else...you got it all here...YES!
I’ve been waiting for this album to come out. So far, I’ve heard two tracks off The Past is Still Alive and liked both. Time to think about buying a new album me thinks!
