Description

1. LIVING IN IDAHO

MY MIND PLAYS TRICKS
I FORGET I'M ALONE
I THINK FOR A MOMENT
THAT SHE IS STILL HOME
BUT SHE PACKED HER BAGS
AND SHE HIT THE ROAD

NOW SHE'S LIVING IN IDAHO,
IDAHO, IDAHO
IT'S WHERE THE CALIFORNIANS GO,
WHY GO, I DON'T KNOW,
I GUESS THEY DON'T MIND THE SNOW,

MY HEART MISSES TICKS
I GET THAT SHE'S GONE
BUT HAVING HER HERE
IS ALL I'VE EVER KNOWN
SO I STRUM MY GUITAR
AND LIFE GOES ON

YEAH SHE'S LIVING IN IDAHO,
IDAHO, IDAHO
THEY'RE GROWING TATERS IN IDAHO,
IDAHO, IDAHO
TOO BAD IT'S SO FAR TO GO

2 THE DOOR

THIS IS NOT WHAT WE SHOULD DO
THIS IS NOT FOR ME
THIS IS NOT FOR YOU
AFTER ALL THAT WE'VE BEEN THROUGH
AIN'T THERE SOMETHING WE CAN DO?
AFTER ALL THAT WE'VE GONE THROUGH
THERE MUST BE SOMETHING WE CAN DO

SO YOU'RE WALKING OUT THE DOOR
YOU JUST CAN'T RELATE TO ALL MY METAPHORS
BUT HOW CAN I EXPLAIN TO YOU
SOMETHING I DON'T UNDERSTAND
AND ITS NOT THAT I DON'T THINK ABOUT IT
I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND
AND THE MORE I TRY TO THINK ABOUT IT
THE LESS I UNDERSTAND

THIS IS NOT WHAT WE SHOULD DO
THIS IS NOT FOR ME
THIS IS NOT FOR YOU
AFTER ALL THAT WE'VE BEEN THROUGH
AIN'T THERE SOMETHING WE CAN DO?
AFTER ALL THAT WE'VE GONE THROUGH
THERE MUST BE SOMETHING WE CAN DO

SO YOU'RE WALKING OUT THE DOOR
YOU JUST CAN'T RELATE TO ALL MY METAPHORS
BUT HOW CAN I EXPLAIN TO YOU
SOMETHING I DON'T UNDERSTAND
AND ITS NOT THAT I DON'T THINK ABOUT IT
I DON'T WANNA UNDERSTAND
AND THE MORE ITRY TO THINK ABOUT IT
THE LESS I WANNA UNDERSTAND

3 SEVEN SEAS

I TOLD YOU THAT I'VE NEVER CROSSED THE OCEANS
SO WHY YOU GOTTA BRAG YOU'VE CROSSED THE SEVEN SEAS
SO UNDERWHELMED WITH EMOTIONS
I JUST DON'T CARE
'CAUSE I WASN'T THERE

NEXT TIME I TAKE A LEAK
IN THE SINK
OR I'M JUST YAWNING
I'LL BE SURE TO THINK
ABOUT YOUR TRIP TO BEIJING
AND YOUR PARIS MORNINGS

WHEN I TOLD YOU THAT I'D NEVER CROSSED AN OCEAN
DOESN'T THAT MEAN I'VE NEVER CROSSED THE SEVEN SEAS
SO SORRY I CAN'T RECIPROCATE YOUR EMOTIONS
BUT I CAN PRETEND I CARE
DAMN I WISH I WAS THERE

NEXT TIME I TAKE A LEAK
IN THE SINK
OR I'M JUST YAWNING
I'LL BE SURE TO THINK
ABOUT YOUR TRIP TO BEIJING
AND YOUR PARIS MORNINGS

WHEN I TOLD YOU THAT I'D NEVER CROSSED AN OCEAN
DOESN'T THAT MEAN I'VE NEVER CROSSED THE SEVEN SEAS
SO SORRY I CAN'T RECIPROCATE YOUR EMOTIONS
BUT I CAN PRETEND I CARE
DAMN I WISH I WAS THERE

NEXT TIME I TAKE A LEAK
UP ON AN EVEREST PEAK
OR I'M OUT SPLUNKING
I'LL BLAME YOU, I THINK
FOR A LIFE FULL OF MEANING
BUT I PREFER ONE THAT'S BORING

----------------------------------------------

4 FOREVER SHADOWS

STUMBLING DOWN A TIMELESS TRACK
MUTTERING NOTHING UNDER HIS BREATH
HE'S GOT NO TIME FOR DEMONS
LESS TIME FOR DEATH

A DIMMING LIGHT ROLLS OFF HIS BACK
TEMPTATION NOT FOR HEAVENLY BLISS
ON AN ENDLESS STROLL FOR EONS
CASTING FOREVER SHADOWS ON THE ABYSS

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here are four original country songs i have written over the decades. I first recorded a demo of THE DOOR in the early 1990's on my ross4x4 cassette or even in the 80's. Idaho was written in 2017 for Holly and first demo recorded with Mixcraft. Seven Seas was composed and first demo tracked in 2012ish using Audacity. The last song Forever Shadows has been kicking around for years as a poetry idea but is primary digitally composed in suno and mastered using Mixcraft. I substituted most of my vocals with the suni singers you here in these tracks. Words and music copyrights belong to Keith Impink respectfully with covering attributions to SUNO.
