Story behind the song

Youngstown Ohio took a devasting economical hit when its Steel mills were closed down in the 80s.
 When I returned to Youngstown In the middle 90s,it really effected me when I saw what happened to the town, especially to our small but filled with memories, amusement park.....Idora Park......I knew instantly these feelings had to be a part of a song. The song was written in a very short amount of time and remains one of my personal faves.

Lyrics

IDORA
      Lead Guitar - INTRO

  verse  Its only just an image of a place
           That I once knew
         A photograph of me and you
           in 1962
         And somewhere in our life 
         we lose our yesterdays
            IDORA
  verse  The sanctuary carasel
         Stand in line to take a ride
         We're leaning on the "Funhouse " gate
         Hearing all the joy inside
          coz somewhere in our life
          we let it grow away
             IDORA       IDORA
   BRIDGE   Life is often like a rollercoaster
            Tossing us around to and fro
            How'd we ever get 
            to where we're going
            I dont know?
       REPEAT LEAD GUITAR INTRO
 
  verse  And now it sits a lonely shrine
         of all the things it could have been
         A beacon of my past
         reminding childhood friends
   Everything we love will always slip away
        IDORA           IDORA
   Everything we love will always slip away
        IDORA           IDORA
    LEAD GUITAR SOLO - slow fade
