Where You Said You Would Be

lyrics

WHERE YOU SAID YOU WOULD BE

Well, the past is gone and the night's alive,
And the future is on the run.
The promise of a love so blind--
No rest for anyone.

We said we'd meet by summer's end
And forget the world we knew,
Where the woodcock dance in moonlit flight
And the river splits in two.
So, there I wait for you.

Now, I wonder where you could be.
I went right where you said you would be
Waiting for me. Now, I'm waiting on you.
Don't let it be too good to be true.

Two mirrored souls in fevered dance
Upon the thinnest strand
Sparked the edges of the universe;
Shook the limits of the land.

But, so now goes the twilight's blue,
So too now comes the rain,
And still now with no sign of you,
So too now comes the pain
Unknown by any name.

And I wonder where you could be.
I went right where you said you would be
Waiting for me. Now, I'm waiting on you.
Don’t let it be too good to be true.

In dreams I sailed to a land of youth
Where on golden harps they played,
And bid, "Sing us a song of human love!"
I plucked one string and they pulled it away,
And said, "You best be on your way."

Now I wonder where you could be.
I went right where you said you would be
Waiting for me. Now, I'm waiting on you.
Too bad it was too good to be true.

Joseph Huber Milwaukee, Wisconsin

After 7 years of hard touring and playing banjo with the influential streetgrass group, .357 String Band, Joseph Huber has found an individual voice that covers a vast range of influence. Playing all the instruments, from fiddle to harmonica to banjo to tambourine (and as many as he can at once) he amazes and entertains, but also reveals substance. His songs are lyrical, but he knows a good hook. ... more
