Liner Notes

#folkrock #acousticonetake
A big philosophical idea from a dream, connecting adventure and destiny.

Lyrics

It’s natural to spend some time
Dwelling in the past
The lessons and regrets
And the things you hoped would last

You remember summer thunder
And dream of leaves falling
But when you’re dreaming of adventure
That is the future calling

Don’t let your soul family
Provide the ties that bind you
Wherever else that you might go
They have a way to find you

Sometimes your car speeds you on
And sometimes it is stalling
But when you’re dreaming of adventure
That is the future calling

We’re torn between our hometowns
And the things we long to see
Can life be calm and peaceful
And when will we be free

We see the writing on the wall
And try to read the scrawling
But when you’re dreaming of adventure
That is the future calling

"But when you’re dreaming of adventure / That is the future calling" is a powerful and beautiful sentiment. Really enjoyed the listen!

I like this idea of becoming 'unstuck'. The future is a world of opportunities to seek out. Very lovely song.

really lovely lines and imagery in this write. The guitar also has a really bright and twangy ring to it that makes this song feel hopeful. Nice!

The line about being torn between our hometown and the things we long to see really connected with me. A lovely folky song.
