Canyon Wall by Trestle
Get lost in your head in the Canyon Wall.
Words and Music by Mike Franks & Jeff Owens
Written and recorded remotely during Covid19.
Parked my car by the side of the road; took a walk down a dusty trail
Over rocks , thru the bottlebrush, saw a flock of small-tailed quail
Don't know where I am going, or how long I'll be there
Just need to go and clear my head in the smell of this mountain air
I remember when the days were longer and the nights were just the same.
I remember how it seemed forever when tomorrow always came
Stop to sit on a fallen rock, beside the canyon wall
Watched the flow from new to old in the hillside waterfall
Tumbling down to the water below, where it fin'ly comes to rest
My thoughts spread out as deep as the middle and as shallow as the water's edge
I remember when the days were longer and the nights were just the same.
I remember how it seemed forever when tomorrow always came
So, take me back there - & do it all again
Just let me feel what - I felt then
Sometimes you wish for things that you cannot change
Still take me back to when - tomorrow always came
Mem'ries that mean the most - come back to you in time
Some saints and some like ghosts and some I wish weren’t mine
Time moves on in one direction: it only moves ahead
But like an echo from this canyon wall, what you hear 's already said
I remember when the days were longer and the nights were just the same.
I remember how it seemed forever when tomorrow always came
So, take me back there - & do it all again
Just let me feel what - I felt then
Sometimes you wish for things - that - you cannot change
Still take me back to when - tomorrow always came
Sunlight dims behind the hills & darkness starts to fall
Leaves their mark in faded faces - just shadows on the canyon wall
I remember when the days were longer and the nights were just the same.
I remember how it seemed forever and - tomorrow always came
