about

A band version of a song I first recorded in Pembroke in 2004 with Jon Christink. This version, done by a band I was in with work colleagues called The Slow Century, was recorded by Steve Gaw and Tom Brown at a farmhouse outside of Kemptville in 2014.
This song was eventually re-recorded with Jon Higney for the 2017 Area Resident album Delano.

lyrics

You don't have to open up
And it's not up to you
If you don't want to
You don't want to

And you don't have to save up
You don't have to put up the price
If you don't want to
You don't want to

Two hours to go
Your blue eyes will close
It's alright
Go home

You don't have to live it up
You don't have to build it up
If you don't want to
You don't want to

Two hours to go
Your blue eyes will close
It's alright
Go home
