This song means a lot to me. The entire melody came to me in 5mins, just plugged my guitar and the notes played themselves.
It's wonderful to have two of my favourite collaborators, Steve and Frank, help me realize this finished song.
Lovely vocal from Steve, heartfelt, as well as great guitar playing. Frank supplied the tasty 2nd guitar parts and conjured up a great mix/master.
Another version with Todd on drums is in the works.

Seems like a lifetime or only yesterday?
The roads that point me homewards
Have gone astray
The growing fear of losing the sanctuary
Of that sheltered lighthouse from my storms;
If I once more could find the path back homewards
I'd walk it now
Words left unspoken
Meet plans now turned to dust
I waited to say I love you
But now tomorrow will never come
I can only hope that love can reach through
And help you know just how I feel
If I could only move time backwards
I'd move it now
We all know that life must go on
Time, she waits for no one at all;
Fairy tale endings are best left in books
That rarely ever change a thing?
Now I miss you more than words can tell
Seems like a lifetime or only yesterday?
The roads that point me homewards
Have gone astray
The growing fear of losing the sanctuary
Of that sheltered lighthouse from my storms;
If I once more could find the path back homewards
I'd run back now
