lyrics
Photographs of tawdry seasides
Epitaphs of morning’s b-side
All my time with you
All my time with you
A china cup which cracked a sliver
A view of two across the river
Is what remains of you
Is evidence it’s true
A paper bell with a clapped out clacker
A tangerine by a stale salt cracker
Where on earth are you?
Where on earth are you?
Evidence it’s true
Of how I once loved you
Evidence it’s true
Of how I once loved you
Time takes its time
Then it tears us in two
A wave goodbye on a sunlit day
Clouds rolled by but they didn’t stay
And I remembered you
And all my time with you
A soft-lit dance ‘cross a ballroom floor
A quiet kiss in a disco’s door
Is what remains of you
Evidence it’s true
Evidence it’s true
Of how I once loved you
Evidence it’s true
Of how I once loved you
Time takes its time
Then it tears us in two
The smell of sea air on a lonely evening
You cried the time that I was leaving
A world away from you
A world away from you
A motor started and I heard you running
What was the song that you were humming?
Evidence it’s true
Is what remains of you
Time takes its time
Then it tears us in two
Epitaphs of morning’s b-side
All my time with you
All my time with you
A china cup which cracked a sliver
A view of two across the river
Is what remains of you
Is evidence it’s true
A paper bell with a clapped out clacker
A tangerine by a stale salt cracker
Where on earth are you?
Where on earth are you?
Evidence it’s true
Of how I once loved you
Evidence it’s true
Of how I once loved you
Time takes its time
Then it tears us in two
A wave goodbye on a sunlit day
Clouds rolled by but they didn’t stay
And I remembered you
And all my time with you
A soft-lit dance ‘cross a ballroom floor
A quiet kiss in a disco’s door
Is what remains of you
Evidence it’s true
Evidence it’s true
Of how I once loved you
Evidence it’s true
Of how I once loved you
Time takes its time
Then it tears us in two
The smell of sea air on a lonely evening
You cried the time that I was leaving
A world away from you
A world away from you
A motor started and I heard you running
What was the song that you were humming?
Evidence it’s true
Is what remains of you
Time takes its time
Then it tears us in two

Sid Griffin London, UK
Yep, I'm the guy from the Americana founders the Long Ryders in 1980s L.A. & the guy in the first ever alt-bluegrass act, the Coal Porters, recently out of London. You bet make solo albums & perform singer-songwriter gigs, I’ve toured solo from London to Los Angeles to Sydney to Hong Kong to Helsinki too. Million Dollar Bash is my well-received book on The Basement Tapes and I've never met Dylan. ... more

This is equally gorgeous and rocking - just a wonderful set of songs and great performances and arrangements (and the guitar solos are perfect). As one who was only familiar with the Long Ryders music, coming across this is ear-opening...akin to hearing Gene Clark solo stuff at the first time and marveling how it equaled/bested the Byrds.
