lyrics

Dusty pictures on the wall
Faded memories take control
I was here last December
We were there in June

I feel the same
We were like glue
Ignored the things I had to do
Took a train that cold November

And I don’t want to fail again
Dropping off the face of the earth
And fail again

In the woods a dog is howling at the moon
He’s lost his way
Barking up the wrong tree again and again

Dusty pictures on the wall
You and me inside the falls
I was here last September
Gone away too soon

I feel the same
so what about you?
I don’t have many things to do
I look outside and it’s November

And I don’t want to fail again
Dropping off the face of the earth
And fail again

In the woods a dog is howling at the moon
He’s lost his way
Barking up the wrong tree again and again
In the woods a dog is howling at the moon
He’s lost his way
Barking up the wrong tree again and again

And I don’t want to fail again
Dropping off the face of the earth
And fail again

In the woods a dog is howling at the moon
He’s lost his way
In the woods a dog is howling at the moon
He’s lost his way
In the woods a dog is howling at the moon
He’s lost his way
Barking up the wrong tree again
Barking up the wrong tree again
Barking up the wrong tree again and again.

about

El matador alegre Verona, Italy

A painter meets a music producer/multi-instrumentalist.

They share ideas, they start writing songs together.

They want to make music and lyrics blend like watercolors on paper.

They paint songs full of life, tinted with melancholy and memories. ... more
