about

This track was originally written based off the style of Jon Brien's PROM KIDS. The lyrics were written after being in close proximity to a girl wearing a black dress at Market Basket. I thought for sure she was looking at me because we had met in more then one isle. I tried to find her after entering a separate isle but she was gone. I stopped a gas station and threw on Jon's CD for inspiration. This track is mainly performed with an old Casio keyboard accompanied by nothing else the the preset drum machine built in it. To keep with the feel of this EP I recorded the song using guitar and added a loop effect to the audio.

LYRICS

I saw you in Wichita
It's where I fell in love
I saw you standing there
And I wanted to ask you out
Then I noticed
You weren't looking at me at all
That's where I fall

And I came back to a place
Where I could remember your face
Walking down those isles
Wearing that black dress
I was so peaceful
I didn't want to make a mess of things and now

I can only dream about you
And all the things I didn't say
And all the things i wanted to
And now it's all gettin' in the way
It's gettin' in the way...
(repeats)
It's gettin' in the way...

I will never forget a mother age thirty-through...
(Cosby: 4 Year Old Jeffrey)
