I Lost Time

Hey There Stranger is just about to come out as we speak and our pal Enrico made this beautiful video for I Lost Time. Fader premiered it and a lot of kind people have been spreading the word.

I Lost Time is a story vaguely inspired by the life and condition of Clive Wearing.

These are the lyrics:

I Lost Time

Wish just slivers of time on halt
Do not recognize first taste
I lost time, I lost time and I'm on my own
I lost time, no bad past and I'm on my own

And I'll feel this minute right
Yes I'll save this own real crease
Now I am most definetly awake
I'll become forever more today

Nothing I have can be undone
Nothing I have can be saved
I lost time, I lost time and I'm on my own
I lost time, no real harm and I'm on my own

And I'll feel this minute right
All I have, void is all
Now I am most definetly awake
I'll become forever more today

So happily suspend your time
Now join my whole seconds of blank
It's all i've got i'm sorry dear
I promise more next time i'm here

In the meanwhile we are gearing up for New York, CMJ Festival and recording plans. Mood in the camp is ecstastic!

If you want to own the amazing-ness of Hey There Stranger you can order from our label Lefse CD or LP, or other places like INSOUND, Itunes.....

Have a good one!
xxooo
