Wonderful tune on a lively beat, will make sure to listen to the original, I have a lot of respect for Steve Low's work too @stevelowsongs

how cool is this?  you guys covering Steve Low   the vocals are just as wonderful as usual and the sound is as good as anything coming out of Nashville;  you guys should be on Mountain Stage or similar

@user-138663860: We certainly agree Sandy! Thanks for checking it out and for your lovely comments. Durge

that 3rd part harmony makes all the difference

Licking your toes to sleep!? Great tune. Chord changes are so good.

This terrific song is the work of our friend Steve Low who granted us permission to attempt a cover. As much as we love Steve's original, we saw no point in trying to do it the same as he so wonderfully did, so we thought it would be fun to go country, perhaps a bit bluegrass and we're very excited to share it here. The song has some terrific lyrics that describe the longing one experiences when the one they love is gone. We thank Steve for allowing us the privilege and we also are pleased to again feature the amazing banjo work of Hamilton Belk.

Lyrics (by Steve Low):
You yes you’re living in a cage
You’re bouncing off the bars
But it’s my ribs and tissue that’s inflammed
Yes it’s I who’s watching for your car
My roots are deep here in the west
Invested here I have to stay
But you got gypsy in your blood
Your fiddles playing the sounds of Spain
And so I’m watching yes I’m watching
All the headlights - all the headlights
Oh I’m watching yes I’m watching 
All the headlights - all the headlights
Coming up over the hill - hoping that one of them is you

Though you’ve had a travelling circus life
You been courting stability
And I’ve been prostrate at your feet
I been licking your toes to sleep
And though you bathe in pleasures warm
I sense our wine is running dry
I know as you commute each morn
You’re not the type to say goodbye
And so I’m watching . . . you

This evening’s sky is coal dust cloud
You’re late and I’m a clairvoyant
This house empty of all sound 
This house is empty
This house is empty
