Story behind the song
Wistful lament about misplaced priorities & opportunities squandered. Vocals by Antti Heikkinen, with help from Eva Kotsopoulos on background vox.
Keith, wherever you are, pal...we finally got it done. Here's to ya.

Bedford Falls
Music - Steve Kotsopoulos aka "dvaoa"
Lyrics - Keith Adams
Well it wasn’t in the north
Time to look towards the east
Life’s too short to coast
When there's sweaty palms to grease
Made and lost two fortunes
In the time spent panning gold
Was it worth the weight to carry
Or trouble that it took to hold
He used to dream of Lincolns
And big old Cadillacs
Mansions by the sea shore
And money piled in stacks
Spent the years out searching
For something left behind
Nothing has more value
Than a peace of mind
It was the same old whisper
He’ll be back some day
Once he’s rode the tiger
That’s always what they say
Oh Bedford Falls ( chorus)
Where it starts and ends
You cant count em all
Good memories and old friends
No one says you’re wrong
You judge your own sins
In Bedford Falls
