Ten Years Behind Me (Solo Demo)

(album: Something New: Unreleased Gold - 2020)

Long lonely sound
Like a distant wolf or hound
With the slowing of the wind inside the canyon
I gazed upon the night
Without loneliness or fright
It was fine to have a woman by my side

And that was ten years behind me
Ooh, beside me the woman showed me how to love
Ten years behind me
And it reminds me of what I don't have now

Heat of the day
When those flies got in our way
With the burning of the leaves upon the hillside
But I was so young
Short of breath, clean of lung
There's a first time for almost everything that's done

And that was ten years behind me
Ooh, beside me the woman showed me how to love
Ten years behind me
And it reminds me of what I don't have now

Long lonely sound
Like a distant wolf or hound
With the slowing of the wind inside the canyon
I gazed upon the night
Without loneliness or fright
It was fine to have a woman by my side
And it was fine to have a woman by my side
