Cold Front
Music and Lyrics by: Alison Reynolds ©2014
There’s a cold front moving in
And it’s knocking on your door
A cold front moving in my friend
It’ll stop you in your tracks, it’ll get you in the end, yeah!
Skies are turning black
(Listen to the sound, listen to the wind)
Getting’ darker still
(Waiting for the storm, soon it will begin)
That cold front’s headed right for you,
Better move away before your heart turns cold and blue
Your shoulders must be getting’ tired of carrying that chip
Keeps on getting’ heavier when your luck’s about to dip.
Though it makes you weary you just will not let it go
As the clouds keep movin’ in,
They’ll be the only thing you’ll know.
There’s a cold front moving in
(Listen to the sound, listen to the wind)
And it’s knocking on your door
(Waiting for the storm, soon it will begin)
A cold front moving in my friend
It’ll stop you in your tracks, it’ll get you in the end, yeah!
Keep holdin’ all those grudges till you cannot sleep a wink
Life moves on without you till you’ve lost more than you think.
As the world keeps turning it will leave you far behind.
As the dark surrounds your soul
You’ll not see the sun that shines.
Just hear that whistlin’ wind,
Blowing through your heart
Like a run away train it’ll carry you away
And you won’t know how to stop, no!
Don’t let that cold front come on in.
(Listen to the sound, listen to the wind)
Though it keeps knockin’ on your door
(Waiting for the storm, soon it will begin)
Close that door don’t let it through
So you can see the sun shining just for you
You can see the sun shining just for you
You can see the sun shining just for you!
This song features Tim McKellar on bass, Deborah Kuhn on lead guitar, and Alison Reynolds all vocals and rhythm guitar. Recorded at Nasty Cactus Studio in Las Cruces, NM and engineered by Travis James Manning
Thanks Doug, I really appreciate it!
Yes, yes, a much better mix. Still remaining my favorite.
Thank you Farrell! I didn't see the "update" button until after I'd deleted it! Still learning the ropes. Thanks for re posting your comment!
This version of the song sounds fuller like it's been mastered with a skillful ear. The first version was good but this is better!
A helpful hint: The glitch with deleting songs and replacing them with new versions is that you lose any reviews up to that point. Another option is to use the song update feature instead of the delete function. That way you get to keep your reviews.
Here's the review I did previously:
First off welcome to Mixposure Alison! You have a good voice and this is a well written folk song. I like the upbeat music and the meaningful message in the lyric.
BTW, thanks for listening to my songs!
