Amazed

I don't know why I continue to be amazed at how the music of Over the Rhine always seems to be able to capture where I am. Maybe that's what keeps me coming back.

peace,

**I'm also thinking about my dear friend Sarah tonight.

Peace dear -- THE PEACE OF THE LORD BE WITH YOU!
====================================
What I'll Remember Most
words and music: Linford Detweiler
recording:
OHIO

The saddest songs are the happiest
The hardest truths are the easiest
Put us both to the test
And tell me if you still need me
And I will swallow these words
And see if I can still believe

The biggest lies are the little ones
When the look in your eyes is the distant one
Angel or demon
You know that they can share one bed
I've laid awake so long
I've got them both inside my head

This is what I'll remember most about dying
So many moments like ghosts
Slipping through my hands in vain
You were 80% angel
10% demon
The rest was hard to explain

This American dream may be poisonous
Violence is contagious
Crowded or empty
I walk these city streets alone
Whoever brought me here
Is gonna have to take me home

This is what I'll remember most about dying
Loading these moments like a gun
Hoping to kill the pain
You were 80% angel
10% demon
The rest was hard to explain
