Multi-genre singer/songwriter, previously with The Mediocres (Chicago, IL), Swimmer Monkey (Silicon Valley, CA), and currently "Clot 1" of The Garden Clots.
Wendy heard the original version and asked if she could sing it. I'm glad she did. As always, Mike did an amazing job on the production.
Lyrics
Two o'clock in the morning
And time's standing still
Wet wheels on the pavement
Below
There's a tapping of rain on the sill
The bed
Feels awkward and cold
I can still smell the dinner
That I ordered
And I ate on the couch all alone
CHORUS
And I
I want you to know
your memory's not welcome here
Nor your smell
Cast them out
Make them go
In the car
I remember our fight
Trying to look between raindrops
On the windshield
Past my tears as I drive through the night
Now I sit
In the park where we met
And memories keep flashing
Before me
Like a film I cani¿½t forget
CHORUS
And I
I want you to know
Your memory's not welcome here
Nor your smell
Cast them out
Make them go
I know
It can't be the same
And I pray God will take me
At this moment
...look to the sky
I call out your name
CHORUS
And I
I want you to know
Your memory's not welcome here
Nor your smell
Cast them out
Make them go
(Musical Bridge)
CHORUS
And I
I want you to know
Your memory's not welcome here
Nor your smell
Cast them out
Make them go
Make them go...
