about
I’ve always been drawn to Emmylou Harris’s music, her songs, and her voice. At some point she became so symbolic of Nashville to me. A couple years ago, I attempted to have a residence in both Nashville and in my hometown in Pennsylvania. I have my friends and family, my daughters, in PA - and I have friends that have become family in Nashville. I found myself in a kind of internal war between where I was most needed and where my heart was at the time. Either way, people were going to be hurt, and seeking some kind of redemption for the situation I had created, became the loudest voice in my head, which inspired “Emmylou.”
lyrics
It’s a long way down to salvation from this town
But I don’t want to drive that far today
So I’ll just stay here but there’s nothing much to do
Count the cars and watch them roll away
In another time, I’d be on my way
But I don’t want to go back like before
Oh Emmylou, there’s an achin’ in my chest
Pain that will not rest
If redemption was a bell, this whole town would hear it ring
On this day of reckoning
Should I close my eyes, never look up to the sky?
Do I turn away from everything we dreamed?
Cause I don’t know if it matters anymore
But nothing is the way it used to be
In another life, I might have stayed
Now I don’t want to live here anymore
Oh Emmylou, there’s an achin’ in my chest
Pain that will not rest
If redemption was a bell, this whole town would hear it ring
On this day of reckoning
