about

This is a laid back Latin / Jazz / Pop song with a travelling theme.

Brian Heywood is an Australian musician who relocated to the UK in the early 80's and is now based in Australia. As well as live performance in country, Americana roots, folk rock and pop / rock genres, he also composes for live and video and film soundtracks. He also has a lot of experience in live production and studio production / engineering for recordings in a variety of styles.

A guitarist, vocalist, bandleader, arranger, composer, producer and award winning song writer - Brian has a formidable array of skills and experience. He is just as at home on a big festival stage in outback Western Australia as an indie live music club in the heart of London.

lyrics

The sun is in my eyes and all my dreams behind me
Left with my cares and woe abandoned by the road
I know a way to go where memories can't find me
Lost in the rhythm of the road

Tucked in your lonely bed where the dark can't find you
Face your old enemy, a world that doesn't care
Outside the wild geese call, they sing their open road song
To find the rhythm of their road

Just like a white bird, skimming the lines of the highway
Just like a bad dream, banished by the dawn
Just like the albatross, a bird of ill omen
You won't see me ... I'll be gone

There is an open road that is forever empty
Lost years that roll on past, dark milestones by the way
My fate it follows like a juggernaut behind me
Till I lose the rhythm of the rhyme
Another traveller lost in time
Another traveller lost in time

Just like a white bird, skimming the lines of the highway
Just like a bad dream, banished by the dawn
Just like the albatross, a bird of ill omen
You won't see me...
I'll be gone
I will be gone
I will be gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
