lyrics
SINGER-SONGWRITER
i met you on my way to hollywood
you asked me to hold on, i said i would
FC by virtue of your will i hold on to you still
F AmGC the nights are bad & the days are just as good
you crawled in through my window after dark
your second show had torn you apart
you said you had to quit
i talked you out of it
we slept in late & i had played my part
your secrets walk the boards on the stage
& curtains drawn, your voice in a rage
i know you didn't mean
to ruin everything
i'm sorry if i got in your way
you told me i was your only safe bet
& then you told me the truth in a voice filled with regret
the critics always state
that you were not that great
but i swear it was your best performance yet
i met you on my way to hollywood
you asked me to hold on, i said i would
FC by virtue of your will i hold on to you still
F AmGC the nights are bad & the days are just as good
you crawled in through my window after dark
your second show had torn you apart
you said you had to quit
i talked you out of it
we slept in late & i had played my part
your secrets walk the boards on the stage
& curtains drawn, your voice in a rage
i know you didn't mean
to ruin everything
i'm sorry if i got in your way
you told me i was your only safe bet
& then you told me the truth in a voice filled with regret
the critics always state
that you were not that great
but i swear it was your best performance yet

the young novelists Toronto, Ontario
Exclaim! dubbed their first EP “unpretentious brilliance” and this Toronto-based folk-roots band has won critical acclaim ever since. Stephen Fearing described them as having “tight arrangements, great dynamics, and good songs with beautiful harmonies” and their live shows capture audiences with both barnstorming singalongs and heartbreaking folk ballads. ... more
