A Matter of Time

[boneonbone]

Hi all,  haven't put any songs up in a while as I tried expanding beyond my usual acoustic duo offerings.  This started out as an acoustic song but with the help of a couple other friends lending their talents, a totally different song.  Hope you'll give it a listen.

A Matter of Time     words & music: Vance Grazio   © 2019     

You can't see ahead, by looking behind
Can't outrace the clock, when it starts to unwind
It's just a matter of time

Bury the past, by the side of the road
Lay a candle and cross, initialed in code
With spirit unbowed

Chorus 1:
Eyes to the sky, wake from your sleep, blinded by "why"
Mysteries of a greater mind
A matter of time

A secret to life, is to never grow old
Winning your hand means refusing to fold
Or so I was told

Chorus 2:
Eyes to the sky, wake from your sleep, blinded by "why"
Mysteries of a greater mind
Seek, water and fire, traces of proof, entangled like wire,
Mysteries of a wondrous kind
A matter of time

Lines and circles, that have no end,
Caught in time's, continuum

Locked into place, where you're meant to fit in
The hand on the wheel, continues to spin
Again and again

Eyes to the sky, wake from your sleep, blinded by "why"
Mysteries of a greater mind
Seek, water and fire, traces of proof, entangled like wire,
Mysteries of a wondrous kind
Mysteries of a greater mind

A matter of time

Could be a list Neil young track.
Nice song,the recording is also crystal clear.
When it opens up it's a whole new vibe.
Bravo

[Farrell Jackson]

Very nice! I like acoustic guitars and vocals so this hits the spot for me. I also like the Seals and Crofts vibe and your harmonies are top notch!

[Redler]

Very peaceful and beautiful! At first I thought this is an acoustic song, but then drums and other instruments came in...bigger production works well!

Fine vocal melodies and harmonies. After all, I like this a lot!

[Hook]

Great tune, I also hear Neil Young in there. I love the synthy soloish section.
Rock on!
