lyrics

why does it all have to end
why can't it go on forever and ever
why do we make the decisions we do
why do we rape pillage and plunder
why does the heart have to break
why do our hopes have to drift asunder
why can't it all be explained
why am i searching
why do i wonder

chorus
i believe i recall a certain refrain
it takes me back further than i could ever remember
love is a burden, a blessing a curse
a promise beginning an ending a verse
in a poem we've recited so many times rehearsed

where will we end up
alberta's mountains,
new mexico's desert
taste the crisp fall air
brace for the winter like a child who's grown old

so quickly it seems
yesterday gone
tomorrow's almost past
i'll try to hold on to every moment as long as i can

i believe i recall a certain refrain
it takes me back further than i could ever remember
love is a burden, a blessing a curse a promise beginning an ending a verse
in a poem we've recited so many times rehearsed
a weight a buoy a raft an anchor
an ocean between a stream to the river
a feeling that burns that you've never been seen

about

Tom Savage Kingston, Ontario

Tom Savage is what one might refer to as a triple-threat. One part truth-telling troubadour, one part death-defying guitar slinger, and one part Country Blues howler. Each facet of his formidable on-stage persona carefully crafted over a 20+ year devotion to the composition and performance of song. Tom is a true believer. A disciple of melody and harmony and tempo and timbre. ... more

Tom Savage recommends:

Foolish Frank
by Frontier Folk Nebraska

This is some good ol' fashioned rock and roll! Nice hooks with the right amount of garage band roughness. Tom Savage
go to album
Enderness
by A.A. Bondy

This is what an album should be. A collection of songs that, when placed in a particular order, create a fulfilling listening experience, far greater than that of the individual pieces of music. Tom Savage
