Story behind the song
Originally intended this to be a R&B song, but I sang to fast and bit down a little bit harder on the vocals than I intended. Dave came in to save the day with some Mick Taylor influenced leads.
Lyrics
Isnt it ironic that being open to love
That the surest way to a broken heart
That closed hearts rarely get a chance
To ever get asked to the dance
Generation after generation of jilted faces
Only to get back up and get knocked down again
Theres no denying
Im not the one shes thinking of
And at least for me and my heart
Theres a bitter taste too love
Yesterday and wayward ways
Life can often carry regrets
That youre not the last youre just the latest
And a subtle shift can you become the previous
Night after night of holding her hand
Only to find she no longer remembers your name
**** Break
An acidic feeling deep in the gut
That makes speech uncomfortable as touch
That this time may the last time ever
That you and I are closer than a postal letter
That me and you and I will ever speak face to face
Ill be here and youll be some other place
