Avalanche - Rick Richardson

Avalanche

Feeling your love leaving me,
And seeing my world crumbling
Who would have thought our love would pass
Right through an avalanche

The distant strung out between us now
I guess it seemed to me would never come at all
I could have sworn our love would last
Before the avalanche

I've heard it said that love is plentiful
Just drop your nets into an endless pool
And you will find in time a love that's pure
But if I've been there, I still don't know for sure

Getting back all these memories
And thing about how much your love still means to me
Just hoping you'd grant another chance
After the avalanche

Feeling your love leaving me,
And seeing my world crumbling
Who would have thought our love would pass
Right through an avalanche

 

NOTES:

We often hear about relationships that "crumble" or "fall apart".  So, in my typical melodramatic way, I thought, "What if you had a relationship that went through an "avalanche".   

This song was recorded at Applewood Studio with me on guitar and A.C. Watson playing acoustic lead.   This was one of the songs that, as you can hear, the magnetic tape was beginning to deteriorate before I was able to get it digitally recorded.
