Deja Vu by Brad Gibson
My good friend Kitt Bender lent me this lovely tune of his some years back. We had been drinking together--Guinness and red wine--and it had been so long since I had heard drums sing in my mind. Yet there they were, accompanying his performance atop Conor Byrne's stage. A sign to move forward if ever there was one.
Of cycles macro and micro, in homage to springtime and to the renewal of life. I sincerely hope you enjoy listening to this tune as much as I enjoyed making it with my friends.

Lyrics
DEJA VU
•
•
There's a home I knew
across the ocean
There's a girl I saw
under the lights
The songs we sang
got lost in the wind but
The midnight fire
is not lost in the night
•
Where the lightning strikes
there is a treasure
In the windless sail
the anchor falls deep
The lifeless smile
is still never wasted
On a heart with love
it has to keep
•
I lived under the spotlight
Shadows grew out of my face
I heard thunder arrive right
Before I fell back in my place
•
In the trees at night
there is whisper
In the rocks
a thousand stories untold
I lied the times
I said I won't miss her
She tried, but goodbyes
don't favor the bold
•
When you feel like deja vu
My love have we been here before
It's a steal but I want to
Pretend we had ten seconds more
