lyrics

Never seem to stop learning
Even when my minds astray
Could life be going my way?

And I know that theres always
A lesson to be learned
But I keep on dreaming
Of the life that ill earn

Living up to the stories
That always made my day
Now I am living with more ease
As the sadness melts away
I know tomorrows on its way
But still I live today

And I know that theres always
A lesson to be learned
But I keep on dreaming
Of the life that ill earn

Seeking out the very best
Another day, another dream
And I sit here, wondering
If my emotions get the best of me
Isn't youth still just what it seems?

What do we
Deserve
When we've
Got it all
What do we
Deserve

And I know that theres always
A lesson to be learned
But I keep on dreaming
Of the life that ill earn ( x3 )

"Max Gardener's music can be best described as "Barbecue Pop" - a delightful fusion of dream pop's ethereal charm with a sprinkle of lightheartedness and warmth. Just like a perfect summer barbecue, Max's songs invite listeners to indulge in a sonic feast, where the melodies sizzle, the rhythms groove, and the lyrics spark conversations around the grill." ... more

A great album!! The recording style reminds me feels so lovely. I love all the tracks, but that OPENER - the switch to full "band" is so good. That is all. :D nicole di bisceglie

Absolutely beautiful! The flippant wistfulness of Neutral Milk Hotel meets the spare immediacy of Spoon . . . But it's its own thing. Just listen to it. Matt Leber
