Take Two Bodies And You Twirl Them

Time It Was And What A Time It Was, It Was A Time Of Innocence A Time Of Confidences Long Ago It Must Be I Have A Photograph Preserve Your Memories They're All That's Left You

We've Survived By Believing Our Life Is Going To Get Better.

I Really Don't Know What Exactly All The Songs Mean. Sometimes Other People Have Meanings And When I Hear Them I Think, 'that's Really A Better Meaning Than I Thought, And Perfectly Valid, Given The Words That Exist.' So Part Of What Makes A Song Really Good Is That People Take In Different Meanings, And They Apply Them, And They Might Be More Powerful Than The Ones I'm Thinking.

Instead Of Thinking In Terms Of Chords, I Think Of Voice-leading; That Is, Melody Line And Bass Line, And Where The Bass Line Goes. If You Do That, You'll Have The Right Chord. [these Voices] Will Give You Some Alternatives, And You Can Play Those Different Alternatives To Hear Which One Suits Your Ear. Keep The Bass Line Moving So You Don't Stay In One Spot: If You Have An Interesting Bass Line And You Roll It Against The Melody, The Chords Are Going To Come Out Right.

I'm Laying Out My Winter Clothes And Wishing I Was Gone, Going Home, Where The New York City Winters Aren't Bleedin' Me.
