Story behind the song
Wrote this at a friend’s lake house on Sardis Lake in Sardis, MS the day of a gig I had in Memphis, TN that I had that night where I first shared this song publicly.
Lyrics
JOURNAL ENTRIES flipping through the pages of my old journals with every turn another memory and dusty words bring pictures to my mind i see the marks of the passage of time patches of living stitched with a common thread my life’s like a quilt that’s been sewn together CHORUS i can’t get away from love if i went to the edge of the earth you’d follow me i can’t get away from love if i go up to the heavens you’re there i can’t get away from love maybe i was going barefoot in the summertime maybe i was falling asleep to the sound of rain maybe i was listening to the quiet of early evening maybe i was sipping coffee with a couple of friends maybe I was eating ribs at The Rendevouz in Memphis maybe I was on my knees whispering promises (CHORUS) BRIDGE when all the kodak moments have faded and are all but lost in my head moving past my stubborn spirit i will remember you who carefully got me here got me here i have traveled a long and wearisome road but it’s been paved no doubt with mercy like the cracks in the walls and the cobwebs near the ceiling i’ve collected companions through the years and like an old coffee stain these things stay with me your presence hangs over me like a canopy (CHORUS) written by anne davis sometimes i write songs (BMI)
