Paving over

Liner Notes
Another one about something else
Lyrics
Paving over the old houses New ones in their place Memories buried in the rubble New ones yet to spring from the soil
Everything has changed over the centuries Never content to stay the same Fashion from then is unusual now Until it comes back round again
And speech patterns, words themselves Change as they crash on the shore, finding new meaning, opposites sometimes Nothing is new, merely recycled Bad is good, junk is food We don't always notice but we should

Such a soothing melody and voice to accompany your lyrics. I appreciate the simplicity and wisdom in your lyrics. Thank you!
So true. In music and in life. I enjoyed your song. Good job.
Music is kind of this way, too. Ever building upon previous influences and ideas and constructing an infinite number of new combinations and variations. Lovely accompaniment and vocals.
