about

featuring Anna Lombard

lyrics

Like a tear that just won’t cry
Like a mountain that’s far too high
I reach out my hand to you
But the door is closed I can’t get through

God knows how hard I’ve tried
Stuck on the other side
They say one and one make two
But one and one is all we do

Cause you and me together we would tear this whole thing down
Maybe stop the world from spinning round
I just keep getting lost, but maybe one day I’ll get found
Head up in the clouds feet on the ground

I want you around

But some things in life you just can’t teach
And you’re just out of reach
You’re just out of reach

Like a river running dry
Can’t quench my thirst I die
No matter what I do
I run, but can’t catch up to you

So close, but far away
The sun won’t shine today
Every time it starts to rain
I weigh my joy against my pain

Maybe it’s the longing for the things that we can’t have
That only seems to make us want them more
Thinking ‘bout the lives we lead, the good times and the bad
The life the two of us together could have had

Try not to be sad

Cause some things in life you just can’t teach
And you’re just out of reach
You’re just out of reach

Zach Jones Los Angeles, California

With an encyclopedic knowledge of yesterday’s music and an awareness and appreciation for today’s, Jones combines the raw energy and style of the 1960’s British pop explosion, with the soulful expression of the R&B that poured from Motown & Stax. While paying tribute to the music he loves, yet expanding beyond tradition, Jones has created a fresh musical melting pot of modern rock, pop, and soul. ... more
