Yesterday’s roads

raspy voice, blues, soulful blues, Tempo 72 BPM, 4/4, key D minor. Fender Rhodes plays broken arpeggios opening song, brushed snare and upright bass join gradually, muted trumpet short stabs, nylon-string acoustic accents, close intimate vocal enters 8 bars in, subtle plate reverb, tape warmth, fade.

Lyrics

Verse 1 I walk the streets I used to know, The playground’s empty, the lights are low. I hear my laughter in the past, Those golden days could never last. Every corner holds a name. Chorus Yesterday’s roads, I can’t return, I loved those days, I felt the burn. Yesterday’s roads, I feel the pain, I carry memories in my veins. Verse 2 Schoolyard echoes, the swings are still, I walk alone up the old hill. I touch the fences, I smell the air, The youth I lost is everywhere. Every step recalls the sun. Chorus Yesterday’s roads, I can’t return, I loved those days, I felt the burn. Yesterday’s roads, I feel the pain, I carry memories in my veins. Verse 3 Evening falls, the lights grow dim, I hug the past, I feel it swim. The roads are old, the nights are cold, I walk alone, I keep the gold. Yesterday’s roads, fade away. Chorus / Outro Yesterday’s roads, I can’t return, I loved those days, I felt the burn. Yesterday’s roads… fade tonight.
