lyrics

When I woke
I wondered
Did my heart explode
My pillow
Was tears
My face was soaked
Four dark hours crept till dawn arrived
I’m in Quincy again

The whistle blew
And I knew
I was on the Carl Sandburg line
Riding
The rails
To the end of the line
The prairie was swept
With a blue broom to the west
I’m in Quincy again
I’m in Quincy again

It was good
To see
Your family
They were nice
To me
Through the years

I didn’t get to say goodbye
To the town where I first tried
To prove to you that I
Wanted you to be my wife
Tried to hold on
To the fading frame of our life

Ignorance came in stones of gold
I’m in Quincy again

When we kissed
Of course
We couldn’t know
What the future
Would bring
How you would go
The sunset whispered a lonely good-bye
I’m in Quincy again
I’m in Quincy again

When I woke
I knew
It would never be before
I choked
“I love you”
Whatever that means anymore
Trying to obey
The traced circles of the moon
I’m in Quincy again

about

Joe Dickinson Chicago, Illinois

Hi, I’m Joe Dickinson.

I'm a DIY singer/songwriter from Chicago, IL.

It's not easy, balancing the external demands of work/life with the internal demands of creativity, but I'm working toward a set of sustainable internal systems that will allow me to continue to write, record, and release songs. Hopefully for the rest of my life.

I appreciate you taking the time to listen.
