about

This song has been hanging around for about 10 years. Finally got it on an album. Almost made it onto at least the two previous ones, but it felt at home here. Few if any lyrical or structural changes over all that time--although the lists in the bridge have always been kind of a multiple-choice.

People will want to read more into this--something spiritual or deep. But it's a break-up song, and that's it.

lyrics

Never thought I’d think of that
as the best time in my life,
but now that it’s gone,
I’m starting to realize…

Everything good came from you…

In the time of my mourning…
In the time of my remorse…
In the time of my longing…
I lost you.

Never thought that I could miss
what I never really had.
My fingers are sore from it slipping through,
but that doesn’t change it.

Everything good came from you.

In the time of my longing…
In the time of my remorse…
In the time of my wandering…
I lost you.

Empty bottle, empty promise, empty head.
Such an empty little mind.
Empty secrets, empty gestures, empty words.
Such an empty little mind.

Everything good came from you.

In the time of my mourning…
In the time of my remorse…
In the time of my wandering…
I lost you.

Wheel within a Wheel

Grace Basement's driving force is Kevin Buckley. I went to high school with him and he was a great musician even then. Like fine wine, his music has gotten even more wonderful over time. Derek Brink
