lyrics
When the thin-filmed apathy is peeled away
Clockwork silent in the snow
Portraits, spectacles and rooftops stain
Pages of a day she used to know
Tales of those cross-country bus tours
Herds of sheep lead the way
Beautiful girl inside that belly
Caressing when night falls she'll say
No matter where you think we came from
Whatever haunting calls your name
If home is truly where the heart is
Near or far, we will feel the same
No matter where you think you came from
You'll go back soon
For now you'll have to lay your head down
Close your eyes and sing this tune
Memories of sail boats and folk songs
Spinning disc, numbered sheep
Star spangled ceilings and far off lands to conquer
Colour his dreams, sing him to sleep
No matter where you think we came from
Whatever haunting calls your name
If home is truly where the heart is
Near or far, we will feel the same
No matter where you think you came from
You'll go back soon
For now you'll have to lay your head down
Close your eyes and sing this tune
No matter what you can tell me, I think I'm fine here on my own
No matter what you can tell me, I think I'm fine here on my own
No matter where you think we came from
Whatever haunting calls your name
If home is truly where the heart is
Won't you sing
No matter where you think you came from
You'll go back soon
For now you'll have to lay your head down
Close your eyes and sing this tune
Clockwork silent in the snow
Portraits, spectacles and rooftops stain
Pages of a day she used to know
Tales of those cross-country bus tours
Herds of sheep lead the way
Beautiful girl inside that belly
Caressing when night falls she'll say
No matter where you think we came from
Whatever haunting calls your name
If home is truly where the heart is
Near or far, we will feel the same
No matter where you think you came from
You'll go back soon
For now you'll have to lay your head down
Close your eyes and sing this tune
Memories of sail boats and folk songs
Spinning disc, numbered sheep
Star spangled ceilings and far off lands to conquer
Colour his dreams, sing him to sleep
No matter where you think we came from
Whatever haunting calls your name
If home is truly where the heart is
Near or far, we will feel the same
No matter where you think you came from
You'll go back soon
For now you'll have to lay your head down
Close your eyes and sing this tune
No matter what you can tell me, I think I'm fine here on my own
No matter what you can tell me, I think I'm fine here on my own
No matter where you think we came from
Whatever haunting calls your name
If home is truly where the heart is
Won't you sing
No matter where you think you came from
You'll go back soon
For now you'll have to lay your head down
Close your eyes and sing this tune

Dan Sheron has a rare talent for telling compelling stories set to incredible music. October's Road is a thing of beauty, a record to get lost in at a time when too many see music as either a disposable single use commodity or as sonic wallpaper. Fantastic.

This is beautifully written good mood music, alive with hope and poignant imagery. The lyrics and the instrumentation are incredible. Love this line from Wishing Well: "When I breathed into my lungs, Your song made its home." I've been breathing this album in and it has definitely found a home among my favorites.
