about

This is a very old track that we have reworked so many times. Its about the story of a girl I went to school with. A tiny dancer, in the truest sense. The song used to be called, "Ailuj Trats" which was just her name spelled backwards - "Julia Start". It felt to me like an encapsulation of the story she told me on a few occasions when we dangled our feet in the Belhaven University fountain. Since then, my wife and I re-worked it, performed it, and then finalized its production here at County Q in Nashville Tennessee; a production house that I dearly have come to love right in the heart of Berry Hill in Nashville. Man, what else to say about this song. There were so many amazing ideals coursing through the air. So much unrealized possibility, and everyone that I met at the studio felt that they were a part of it in some extraordinary way. We made music, we chewed the fat, and we did what we knew we were made for.

lyrics

Know Me (ISRC: QMFUX1400007)

I am here and I am wandering
I’m at sea and on the shore
I’m debating a commitment
Though I am forever yours

I am hurting I am healing
I am loosing track of time
I am growing most impatient
With what I am sure is mine
Sure is mine

And I want him cause he’ll
Know me
And hear me out about it
Know me
And hear me out about it
Know me
And hear me out about it

I’ve been feeling undervalued
Undeserving and discraced
When our bodies came together
Twice you came with different face

Then the seasons traced their trails
Like a wagon traces their tracks
Like a cat chases its tail,
Or a scholar chases facts

And I want her cause he’ll
Know me
And hear me out about it
Know me
And hear me out about it
Know me
And hear me out about it

Will you love me like a lover
Will you hear what i’ve to say
Will you help create my fable
In that special kind of way

There is an ending i’ve requested
Though the price is high indeed
When i’m loved and I am needed
That’s when I will truly be
Free

And I want em cause they’ll
Know me
And hear me out about it
Know me
And hear me out about it
Know me
And hear me out about it
