Great harmonic stuff - unexpected chords and fine harmonies. The vocal mix reminds so much of the 1966 Gene Clark and the Gosdin bros - have to play that today now!

Really fine lyrics and great blend of voices-smooth and easy melody--so good Nat and Craig !!!

@user-562815797: I'm glad you do Mark, we debated about that but it won out in the end (pardon the pun). Thanks so much for listening again!

@user-562815797: Thank you so much Mark! Durge wrote something really wonderful here, and it was a pleasure to make.  Glad you loved it! :)

This original song describes that feeling of escaping your day-to-day work life, wandering through the crowds to the sanctity of a local pub. And there the really deep rooted thoughts and meanings get their chance to rise to the surface and take over. In the contemplative world of the low lights and the general banter, the heart overcomes the brain and for a while you get lost in it, on that side of the line between real life and the one that got away..... (lyrics below)
This Side Of The Line:
Out of the crowds I 
Look for a break in this fast moving day
As I look about I
Shiver awake to the city’s cold grey

Turn down the lane
And into a pub, dimly glowing and warm
Settle my brain
With the flame in the whiskey as it goes down

Man on the rise I, lose sight of the prize, my 
Time really flies when I’m getting things done
But now and again I, remember when I 
Escaped to the arms of a certain someone

Ordered a beer
Wash down the whiskey and stir up the past
Bringing her near
Just like this bottle, the curve of the glass

Study the mirror
Reflecting the colors of spirits and light
Everything’s clear
Dissecting old lovers like stars in the night

Man on the rise I, lose sight of the prize, my 
Time really flies when I’m getting things done
But now and again I, remember when I 
Escaped to the arms of a certain someone

Time to go home
Can’t stay too long on this side of the line
But here all alone
I feel her lips on this bottle of mine
This side of the line
I feel her lips on this bottle of mine

This Side Of The Line
