lyrics

Seashells, dried bluebells
Faded pictures pinned on the wall
Dusty songbooks and travel journals
Perfumed letters with words written so dear
And I’m trying in vain to hold back the tears

At the train station I stare deep into her eyes
Time sings me her lullaby
Under the tower with the stars shining down
She was the sweetest thing I’d ever found

At every tick and every tock
In every drip and every drop
I only see what used to be
In every scent in every song
In all I’ve built this whole lifelong
It’s all lost in an ocean of memory

Put down my poor dog, I’m lost in a fog, sleep’s a long lost friend
And the raindrops are boring holes in the roof of my head
All it takes is the rustling of the leaves blowing by
And deep into the daydream I dive

In the meadow I look into her eyes
Time sings me her lullaby
Amid the weeping willow tickling the pond
Above the sun pools rippling through the dawn

At every tick and every tock
In every drip and every drop
I only see what used to be
In every scent in every song
In all I’ve built this whole lifelong
It’s all lost in an ocean of memory
I’m drowning in the ocean of memory
Gluglugluglu….

about

Cory Seznec Paris, France

Somewhere between musical wanderer and uncertified ethnomusicologist dwells the artist Cory Seznec and his unique world.
A French-American in Paris, Seznec’s fingerstyle guitar-playing is syncopated, polyrhythmic, cross-pollinated, and idiosyncratic. He also sings, plays old-time banjo, and wades in the deep river of American song.
