lyrics

Great to see you, it was fun
Safe travels to the sun
I'll be waiting, got the moon outside
Stare out the window as the planes fly by
Take a bus take a plane or car
Take anything that takes you far
Another season come another season gone
Years wasted, come join the sing along

Empty feeling, how do you do?
At least we tried to see it through
The dream is fleeting, nightmares are real
The end result is perfectly clear
Winter version so long ago
Leaves fell off trees, barely any snow
Back to the old neighborhood
Good times were had, as well as they should

Just wanna hang out all day long
Find an excuse to jam, an excuse for a song
Just wanna hang out all night
Find an excuse to jam and the meaning of life
The meaning of life is contained in the jams
Search hard enough and you'll understand
Understand what cant be understood
Would you do that if you could?
If you could please let me know
Thanks a lot buddy, thanks for the show
Some people say that it's bourgeois
But there's no better feeling than hitting a backhand volley

Balk New York, New York

On and off again project/ band of Reid Taylor since 2009. He writes songs and then asks his friends to help play them so it will sound better. Interests range from bombastic atonal noise shred to pretty melodies and harmonies. Familiar themes visited and often revisited include the 4 seasons, songs about 'jamming', sports, and the good, bad, and ugly that life has to offer. ... more
