Still on My Patsy Cline kick, this one may sound a bit more like Willie Nelson. The Lessick and Lincoln version sounds like the Everly Brothers.

Tom Paxton meets Jefferson Airplane. Extremely prolific singer songwriter with a wide range of styles from bizarre novelty tunes and surrealistic poetic songs t
With more than 300 songs and counting and for more than 30 years, I have written in a variety of acoustic styles from novelty tunes to love songs to historical ballads to poetic surrealistic songs to retro-acoustic pop. From bizarre to traditional from funny to poignant, whatever style the song is in, the melodies are usually memorable and the lyrics unpredictable. This site will eventually contain rough often first take demos of my entire song catalogue. Many of the earliest songs when I first started writing will of course be shaky. So expect the songs to get better as time goes on. Feel free to come back and browse often as I will constantly be adding songs, one by one in chronological order, starting in 1974. If you are looking for some unusual songs to cover from a little known but unique artist, you have come to the right place. Just e-mail me. If you find a song here that intrigues you, but you don't like a line or two, or you think it needs a bridge, drop me an e-mail and maybe you can earn writer's credit if it gets that song to be recorded or performed.... otherwise just enjoy. You can become a Rob Lincoln fan at no cost to you. I promise that if you keep coming back there will be some real surprises along the way. While mostly acoustic, some original material will veer into folk rock and even 60's pop, but the garage rock and loudest material will also be found in full band arrangement at soundclick.com/abrasiveflowers Eventually some of these 300+ tunes may be rerecorded and make it on to CD, including a novelty CD that would be suitable for Dr. Demento or an historical ballad CD or a political song CD--but until then, this is the only site you can hear most of these songs. (A few of my songs CAN be found on songramp.com/RobLincoln and myspace.com/lessickandlincoln)

Story behind the song
I wrote this whan I was pissed off at someone I know. It really isn't too mean though, is it? Sounds more forlorn and heartbroken. "Disillusioned" is the operative word. Mp3 listeners gave this so far a 3.6 out of 4.0. Some comments included: "Very Beatlesque" Classic sounding" "This one doesn't do it for me, sorry"
Lyrics
I can't see you anymore I can't look into your eyes I know that once I could see some sadness in your smile But I can't see you anymore I can't hear you anymore Even your laughter's out of place Your words they flow but I don't know where they're coming from But I can't hear you anymore Once I thought I had a lifelong friend And a love I could call my own Once I thought I had everything Oh if only then I'd known I don't know you anymore Even though you look the same Strangest thing of all is... It's me--not you--who's changed
