Banjo Poetry



I have been rolling around in the folk genre the last few weeks. Personally, I like when an artist can make me think with lyrics and feel with the music. This song builds to a point where the music seems to have a hundred different layers. Simple and layered is the sweet spot if you ask me. Hope you enjoy.






Artist: Peter Bradley Adams
Song: I'll Forget You

Well those days have all but gone
And still I'm listening in
To that old long-distance call
But I'll forget you

Well the fields are turning gold
As the winter moves in
There's a love I used to know
But I'll forget you

So bye-bye
So bye-bye
I'll forget you

There's a ghost above my door
Still, can you hear
There's a high lonesome call
But I'll forget you

So bye-bye
So bye-bye
I'll forget you

As the space around me grows
I need the touch of your skin
So I wear this ring of gold
Til I forget you

So bye-bye
Bye-bye
So bye-bye
I'll forget you
