about

In response to Jim Croce who wanted to save "Time In A Bottle" I say, "yes, but what do you do when you realize you CAN'T?" It won't fit in a bottle or a box or even one's own mind.

As for the title, finally, Greg gets to tell ME what lyric to write.

lyrics

Winter in Kazakhstan
Springtime in The Bush
Summer: Tamed the glacier
Autumn on the porch

And all the leaves turn gold
oh how I’d want
To put this time on hold
oh how I’d like
To only not forget
oh how I want
Not to let go of it yet

Restless in this peace
Thoughtless of myself
Timeless moments cease
Boxless, just as well

A month-long job in Ukraine
A fortnight on my sled
A week-long trek through Wales
One night in my own bed

And as my dreams unfold
oh how I want
To record them as they’re told
oh how I’d like
To share them with my friends
oh how I want
Not to let it ever end

Restless in this peace
Thoughtless of myself
Timeless moments cease
Boxless, just as well

Leaves of gold must fall
Trees might hit the ground
The forest still remains
Regardless of the sound
Restless in this peace
Thoughtless of myself
Timeless moments cease
Boxless, just as well
