Tom Richey

The musician I sound most similar to is James Taylor, but Pink Floyd has had the most influence on my lyrics and music.

I got into music by listening to Pink Floyd, Billy Joel and other '60's and '70's people. I have been songwriting for 14 years and live in Jackson, TN (between Nashville and Memphis).

Lyrics

It’s been many years since I spoke to you
But I can’t help thinking back sometimes
To those sunlit days when life was new
Before I discovered how to lie

And now these days life seems so worn and thin
And I sometimes doubt that I can make it
I find my thoughts drifting back to you
Hoping you’re on the road less taken

  Tell me you’ve found a way
  You’re doing well today
  So that I can face tomorrow

Here in the cold I am slowly growing old
Feel darkness closing in on me
And as my hair turns gray if I’m not to fade away
I’ve got to know how to succeed

  Tell me you’ve found a way
  You’re doing well today
  Have you overcome the sorrow?
