Pokhara Line (Demo)

An acoustic version of my new tune 'Pokhara Line' recorded on my trusty reel to reel recorder. This upbeat song is about a bus trip I took a number of years ago from Pokhara to Kathmandu whilst on my travels through Nepal. My first attempt had waaayyy to much tape distortion (not the usual fingerpicking softy!), so had to scrap that and start again - It was getting late hence the tempo increase and slight lack of light!

Lyrics:
What a time to remember, all of our trekking days
It was Brother, Sister and I
Now I'm solo stuck in glue, they took the flight out of town

So I bought my ticket taking me somewhere new
I've got to get my head in the game
I've never done this thing before, I'm just a little alarmed

As I haul my way down the Pokhara line
All on board, we're leaving our Pokhara behind
They say it broadens the mind

I see my woman on a Saturday night as I daydream my way to her love
How I wish that she was here next to me catching them flies

But what a step to trouble, now I'm caught in a daze
I've got to hold fast on my mind
Now I know that she can be something of a gorgon's eye
