Story behind the song
this song was recorded intially on a guitar tuned to DADGAD (in D). Then i layed another guitar track down, this guitar being tuned to standerd, capo second fret. There's also a mandolin and a couple of vocal harmony tracks. the main vocals are dry and the harmonies have reverb....the guitars are dry and the mandolin has reverb.
Lyrics
angel from Syosset
floating down from the sky
brings with her a sweet silence
stolen from on high
still i am struck by her beauty
i know i am blessed
my compassionate lady
holds my head to her chest
NOW THERE AIN'T NO HURRY
WE GOT THE REST OF OUR LIVES
EACH DAY'S JOURNEY
IS SWEETER WITH YOU BY MY SIDE
she came to me in alaska
as the days grew grey long and cold
adrift, i was floating in my way
without an anchor to hold
so, we drove the alcan highway
2 or 3 many times
across montana's skyway
to the northeastern pines
NOW THERE AIN'T NO HURRY
WE GOT THE REST OF OUR LIVES
EACH DAY'S JOURNEY
IS SWEETER WITH YOU BY MY SIDE
the sunrise and sunset
off her eyes are priceless
at sunrise and sunset
...oh, how she shines (x's 2)
NOW THERE AIN'T NO HURRY
WE GOT THE REST OF OUR LIVES
EACH DAY'S JOURNEY
IS SWEETER WITH YOU BY MY SIDE (x's 2)
such pain in seperation
for even less then a day
way too long for two hearts
beating as one to the grave
NOW THERE AIN'T NO HURRY
WE GOT THE REST OF OUR LIVES
EACH DAY'S JOURNEY
IS SWEETER WITH YOU BY MY SIDE
