New song performed by Jon Anything at the piano. This recording later included on the Jon Anything album "Tell Me a Tale (Acoustic Demos)".
Song idea came to me late at night March 31st and lyrics completed April 26th and 27th 2020, recorded in the evening April 27th to barely meet the npr tiny desk submission deadline!

Tell me a tale
I need to hear your voice once more
Your very image now will save me
from the spinning of this empty world
Tell me a tale
and I'll keep it near forever more
The earth and stone will pass away
But we'll hold on to what we were before
Seasons will blossom again
Far far away
I'll leave a song you can sing
When skies are grey
And now we tread the path unknown
As time, it flows away
I'll tell you a tale
The story of a lifetime long ago
But like a photograph I see it in my mind
and now it's all I know
I'll tell you my tale
And all the worry starts to fade away
replaced by all the blessed moments
Oh the words and silence of the days
Seasons will blossom again
Far far away
I'll leave a song you can sing
When skies are grey
And now we tread the path unknown
As time, it flows away
Tell me a tale
The love and labors of a thousand years
Held forever in the hearts of every striving soul
Please keep it dear,
please keep it dear
