Paradise Lost

[The Gobi Desert Canoe Club]

Hi all, sun's come out and and cheered me up and brought on a dose of southern rock. Hope you enjoy.. Roscoe

We drove all night from setting sun to break of day
With never another car in sight
I guess it seemed like we'd lost our way
As we drove on through the night

Miles came and miles went
We lost count as well we might
Cruise control was our best friend
As we drove on through the night

We were looking for somewhere nice
Road signs said this way
We were looking for Paradise
But I guess we'd lost our way

Inst

Chorus

Moon went down and the sun came up
As we drove into town
But Paradise sure wasn't there
It was nowhere to be found

A good slice of Southern Rock Roscoe! The vocal melody, chorus, and lyric pulls me into the song and the smooth lead guitar puts the icing on the cake, nice one!

Indeed, not many of us rockers can resist a little slice of Southern Rock. This is a grower... i had it playing and towards the end decided to give it another spin. Lovely stuff... quite uplifting. I like those sharp little injections of very melodic lead - very tasteful.

[Redler]

Really nice laid back feel here!! Excellent double vocals!!

[Hook]

Brother you consistently write thoughtful, quality tunes, this is no exception. Great lead work, I really enjoyed the tune!
Rock On!

[Jarle]

Great song Roscoe. I like the lead guitar fills on the verses.

[Gnasty]

Sounds like a great traveling song to me. Yes i agree the leads and rhythms accompany the whole feel.

Nice one Ross!

[Picker]

Good lyrics, great feel, great background vocals and awesome guitar.   Only one thing I'm hearing on my cheap earbuds.....the acoustic guitar sounds a bit brittle.....could maybe take off some high end.

Other than that very minor detail, great song!  I like it!
