Lyrics
I've wandered far and wide
This road keeps winding on
Can't stop these hands of time
Or right a world gone wrong

And I guess somewhere way out along the way
There was a vision I got
But then I lost my train of thought

Now I don't mean to stall
Or keep you here too long
Like echoes off the wall
It's here and then it's gone

And once all and everything came back to me
All the battles we'd fought
But then I lost my train of thought
I lost my train of thought

All the world and history
Burns Like a bad sign
And here within my reach revealed
The clouds part in my mind
I see the love that I sought
But then I lost my train of thought
I lost my train of thought

This road is winding down
I'll need another clue
This seems familiar now
Or is this deja vu

And I guess somewhere way out along the way
There were feelings I fought
But then I lost my train of thought
I lost my train of thought
My train of thought
My train of thought

Great cover.
Have to admit, I haven't really listened too much to Stan Ridgway past the first Wall of Voodoo album and his first solo album. Really like the song. Will have to take a deep dive.
Really nicely done. Thanks for sharing!

Very nice! Excellent production, everything is so clear. Has a really great unhurried, reflective and poignant feel to it. Also, your level of musicianship across so many instruments is impressive!

I have yet to hear a song by you I haven't loved.
This is sheer greatness. That classic John Lennon vibe 
in your vocal really works for me!

Everything is perfect! I especially love the guitars and of course the vocals. I dig Stan Ridgway, too. I remember a great song he did with Stewart Copeland associated with the film Rumblefish called "Don't Box Me In."

So good! Very good song! Very appropriate Bridge. Lifted the song! The verses are very strong too! Memorable tune! And that raspy voice makes it all the better! Catchy title, and hook!

@jgurner @Amateurhour @Dr_J @Wyndsok @FrancoJazz @Bowman @yoslounge @TrebleFace @Telemetry @jolofsson @pete @Steve_Brewer_Alt_Blues @StanTheManLoh Thank you all very much for listening and your cool words. As for this John Lennon thing, you're too kind ... I'm obviously flattered but i'm not sure i'm there (at all) ... Or maybe a cheap version of Lennon...  Anyway : I'm grateful to be a small part of this caring, attentive, creative and cool community. Let's keep it alive ! Share your songs with your friends, on 'social media' or by email or by shouting in the street ...

This has such a right dynamic... the wall of sound still accomidates all the elemts tha you introduce along the way... your jangely guitar bed is pretty pefect and that delayed keyboard echo at the end is a nice touch... great production touches all thru

I recently got a new pair of Sonos Ace Headphones and this was the first song to put on them. Your song is amazing! I can hear every little detail in your mix.
Keep up the great work, Dyl! You’re a true talent.

Very enjoyable.  Talented multi-instrumentalist you are.  And I really like the way you mix/master your songs.  Everything is always so clear and has its own space.  Awesome work.
