lyrics

This road is long and weary; I travelled farther than I could
I lost my soul to gambling just like you said I would
I came to town this evening to hope I’d find you there
But you had left already, without a single care
IT’S FUNNY THAT EVERYTHING IS DIFFERENT
WHEN EVERYTHING’S STILL THE SAME

I sat down and wrote you a letter to tell you all I had done
To make you proud of me; proud to call me your son
I’m sorry that I couldn’t be there; you needed me more than I knew
The world seemed so ripe for the taking; I should have listened to you
IT’S FUNNY THAT EVERYTHING IS DIFFERENT
WHEN EVERYTHING’S STILL THE SAME

I left your house at midnight I left for where you would go
The sky opened up before me as I wandered the desert below
I knew you would head south at least I hoped you would
I wish I could find the strength to face you I wish that you knew that I could
IT’S FUNNY THAT EVERYTHING IS DIFFERENT
WHEN EVERYTHING’S STILL THE SAME

I finally found you in Tucson, how many years had gone by
So ready to tell you I’m sorry, but all I could do was cry
When I sat down there beside you I fell into disbelief
You died two years ago come Monday and I’ll never know that relief
IT’S FUNNY THAT EVERYTHING IS DIFFERENT
WHEN EVERYTHING’S STILL THE SAME

Jeff Dillon and The Revival Salt Lake City, Utah

Jeff Dillon won’t sit down and he won’t shut up. For 20 years he’s been distilling his punk rock passion in a mash of folk- flavored rock and roll. The result is a sound that evokes the love child of Tom Petty and Against Me! His debut EP, “For Heidi” is the oak-barrel aged soundtrack with a stouthearted, nomadic spirit—gritty and perfected with Dillon’s experiences from the road. ... more
