josh ritter ~ love is making its way back home

ps love is making its way back home.

dot paths the moonly road
when time the crunch of snow
i wonder when your smile show
'cause love it's making it's way back home
love is making its way back home
love is making its way back home
love is making it's cold really way back home

and when it's finally..
we won't ask for ..
it won't say and we won't care
where it's traveling in the between
love is making its way back home
love is making its way back home
love is making its cold way back home
to you and me

so keep on, keep on, keep on
leaving if you can, you can leave it long
hold on, hold on, hold on
just because it's gone, don't mean it's gone for long

all the jay you heard it's true
love it's patient and love can burn
and it wont' ask to be excused
and it won't ask if it can please return

summer tell you its myth
try to say you dont' resist
well shake the hands and ..
when it's finding in


love is making its way back home
love is making its way back home
love is making its cold way back home
love is making its way back home
love is making its way back home
love is making its cold way back home
to you and me

keep on, keep on, keep on, keep
keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on
keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on
hold on, hold on, hold on

josh ritter @ the wiltern 8.17.11

ps josh ritter is a brilliant musician, songwriter, and author originally from idaho. flashing gigantic grins at the audience his stage presence was spirited. i first discovered josh's overflowing beautiful voice and poetic lines on blip.fm. josh was coming to la so my friend and i took a journey out to see him live at the wiltern for a special evening. when we entered we were overly surprised to see that this show did not sell out. having seats in the mezzanine we were given the option to trade tickets in for floor standing at stage. however, we decided to go to the mezzanine and play musical seats. our decision was perfect because it felt as though we were at our own private concert. we marveled over josh's lyrics and stories he told through his music. if you get a chance to see ritter live, do it!

ps ps oh yes.. when you listen to "change of time" feel the goosbumps as i do.
