about

This is a song by my friend Tom Recht. I suspect it is deeply personal for him, and I tried to do it justice. Steve Dawson's baritone guitar and hand percussion added so much to the song. Photograph by Monica Kass Rogers (www.monicakassrogers.com). Used by permission.

lyrics

In this dream we are walking, Hand in trembling hand
We know there's no place for us but we're still making plans
I turn, you smile, and in my heart, Shadows melt away
Still I wonder where the smile comes from
Now that things have changed, And everything has changed

This is all I have now Annabella (x2)

In this dream we are waiting, Blue scrubs all around
I'm trying to think of what we did to end up in this town
You whisper "let's get out of here" and I nod though I know
This trap's gonna follow us no matter where we go
No matter where we go

This is all I have now Annabella (x2)
...Annabella

We always had a deal (x3)

In this dream I've been falling a long time so it seems
And noone that I've reached for is reaching back to me
But through it all I recall how you held on to me
When the earth was shaking and the room was rattling
How you held on to me

This is all I have now Annabella
This is all I have now Annabella
Annabella, Annabella

Songs that hover around folk, rock & country genres with a mostly gentle, acoustic guitar-based mid-60s sound. The themes are universal: love (Jerome, You Are True), loss (Go), desire (Hunger), memory (It All Comes Back), aging (Golden Years), empathy (Kindness), & gratitude (Grateful). The delivery is understated, but the storytelling packs an emotional wallop that rewards careful listening. ... more
