I’ve been a hungry ghost, with strangers on a train.
I’ve been too damn sick, to feel any pain
But you knew I was grievin’, before you and I met,
I swear you knew how to heal me, before you ever knew my name
I love you already, you might say I chose you
Sometimes it seems like, I’ve always known you,
You’re arms were wide open, I know that you told me
There’s been someone who always loved you
There’s been someone who already knew.
He might’ve been homeless, when he blessed the child
She might’ve been rich and alone for a while
It’s a young man’s struggle, an old man’s cane,
It’s hard to say just how many have tried to make a rough road plain.
Chorus
But I love you already, you might say I chose ya,
you know I’ve been hurtin’, I don’t have to show ya
You might be an angel, I know that you told me
There’s been someone who’s always loved you,
There’s been someone who already knew
I’ve seen my bowl empty, and I thought I was a fool
but you taught me to trust, that my cups always full
I tell ya I was asleep, before you came along
It’s like you had the music but I had the song
Well I keep gettin older, but I don’t act my age.
I’m a blank piece of paper, words just don’t fit the page.
You’re a dream made of starlight, that shines on my pain
I’m a wide open field, that’s been prayin’ for rain
Chorus
I love you already, you might say I choose ya, sometimes it seems like,
I’ve always known ya, Cuz you love me already, I know that you told me
There was something you had to get through,
And there was someone who knew what to do.
Yeah there was someone who already, some one who already, some one who already knew.

their songwriting and delivery is so authentic, it really makes me feel like I am there in a room with them maybe with a small group of people, that everything is going to be okay, we can share our hopes and our sorrows with each other. we will love again. youngrichhomeless

These are exceptionally good (nearly- instrumental) vignettes played with so much finesse and grace. Pieces to carry you far and wide to wonderful places that live on the borderlands of typical Bluegrass tunes, but are all the better for it. The first track is absolutely perfect accompaniment for any late afternoon or evening Autumnal stroll or window staring musings.
Fans of early Grisman or early Tony Rice instrumentals take note. Joe Borreson
