about

An observation of a love that burned brightly and briefly, shot through with lovely pedal steel guitar and the blissed-out beauty of 1970s-inspired singer/songwriter power balladry.

lyrics

Tracers ‘cross the sky
Busy people going places
Better them than I
Cuz I’d see you in all their faces
Lookin’ down and staring at the ground
No one else but me to be around

In time this shall pass
It won’t last, my longing for
A way back to a time
(when) days were so sublime
And you and I were
Burning tracers cross the sky
You and I were
Burning tracers cross the sky

Brighter than a constellation
Shooting without hesitation
Never mind the destination

Solo

I know that you tried
To hang on to our rocket ride
As far as it could go
Never let it show
Until the end, I loved your more
Than any heart I’d held before
(But) it took some time to se
That comets, they burn out
Eventually
Burning tracers cross the sky
You and I
Were burning tracers cross the sky
A pair of roman candles
We did fly
You and I
Across the sky
