Words and Music by Lorne Entress
Entress Music, BMI

lyrics

He took his good old time to find you
as you waited by the door
And when they all had said their goodbyes
he stuck around to say one more

All the lights are blinking yellow
the only car left on the road
He’s such an easy going fellow
If anyone would know, you would know

“I couldn’t have done it without you”
he cracks and waits for you to smile
But you’ve had your share of small talk
and click the seat back for a while

Floating high above the treetops
that race along beside the road
How does the moon keep his composure?
If anyone should know, you should know

It’s a red letter day
Everyone came just to see you
“Are you okay?”
He always will see right through you

Breath keeps fogging up the windshield
as the summer turns to fall
After a while he comes to notice
you haven’t been listening at all

So he cuts right to a question
that you thought he’d never ask
“Do I ever make you happy?”
If anyone should know, you should know

He pulls into the driveway
jams on the brakes to make a point
But you don’t want a confrontation
He never gets this out of joint

You wave your arms into the darkness
a blinding light shines on the stairs
You catch of glimpse of all the heartless
things that you never should have shared

He takes the leash down from the rack
and walks the dog out toward the road
You wonder if he’s coming back
If anyone would know, you would know

Lorne Entress Hartford, Connecticut

After decades of producing many artists I've released my own record. With little fanfare and a modest budget I hid away in my studio in Tolland Connecticut tracking songs. Most began with a single line of verse and grew from there. In addition to American roots influences the ringing harmonies of 70s British rock pushed to the surface and I didn’t push back. ... more
