lyrics

IT’S ALL BEEN A THING

it's all been a thing
it's all but a memory
to the future i sing
for you to be here with me

the shuffle of drums
the frenzied harmonics
may better days come
may our time be synchronic

you are far & away
you are far & away
you are far & away
you are far & away

i have known you before
and I've known you again
a connection that's stored
a connection of friends

patterns kaleidoscopic
the songs in our heads
sometimes symphonic
sometimes canonic
our love for one another
warm & platonic
never sardonic
hope this flow
is euphonic
sometimes ironic
at a speed that's subsonic

rise like the mythical birds
from the ashes
grow with these lyrical words
use your love
don't stash it
you can rise above
any clashes
check,check
one two
let's cash this

it's all been a thing
it is all but a memory
to the future i sing
for you to be here with me

– Thomas M. East
