Haven't you ever wanted to make somebody's dream come true? Half my life all I've wanted is to someday sing a song with you. But will you ever know me, and will I ever know you? I have painted a picture where you are standing next to me. You are a central fixture, my heritage, my company. But will I ever know you, and will you ever know me? I see it in my mind, how you will come to find Room for me in your heart, before I'm left behind. I could be like a blister... the living trace of where you've been. Or I could be like a whisper... the cosmic goosebumps on your skin Trying to remind you that you have left a Cheshire's grin Showing up right when I need you, then disappear again. But where am I to start combining world's apart? The thread throughout my life, the pulse within my heart...

Just pack your easiest suitcase And take a voyage for the thrill of the ride. You know what happens when you follow your heart? Once upon a time was a lady. Once upon a time she began writing Scenes from out a window not her own. Once upon a time there was waiting... Once upon a time, something more hiding. And she soon outgrew the life she’d known. So pack your easiest suitcase And take a voyage for the thrill of the ride. You know what happens when you follow your heart? You find that you’re flying inside. Once you get the ball all a’rollin Then you get your life on a bun, buttered. Baby’s playing every card just right. Once you’ve seen the scene all unfolding, Once you’ve seen the glorious sun shuttered– Lucky’s gone and shown herself the light. So pack your easiest suitcase And take a voyage for the thrill of the ride. You know what happens when you follow your heart? You find that you’re flying inside. ... You know what happens when you follow your heart?

about

All songs originated during the years G.T. Thomas operated under the name “The Luckless Pedestrian.”

Recorded in Caledon, ON, Canada; Seattle, WA, USA; & Amsterdam, Nederland.

This album is dedicated to the memory of Chris Dedrick (1947–2010), who helps me become a better artist-human through thoughts provoked.

Extra special thanks to Berend Dubbe (X!), Moira Dedrick, Ken Maiuri & Paul Hamilton.
