Introducing the greatest talent ever to emerge from the orange bedroom at my parents house. I play guitar like.... well, like a guy playing guitar. I tickle ivories. I twiddle on the computer. I sometimes enjoy beans on toast for breakfast. And in the cracks between the eating, sleeping, laughing, crying, working, breathing experience that is my life there sometimes slips out songs like these.

Story behind the song
A tender story about love found and lost along the journey. I met Sarah at a song writing retreat in Ben Lomond, CA. This is our first collaboration.
Lyrics
How Things Change (So, the Story's Told) Sarah Nicholson/Adrian J Pratt feb 2021 Height of the summer in the middle of the day Black truck tinted window pane He wore red designer shades Her coffin nails painted grey Who would have thought they were runaways From a small town where everyone knows your name Where the people said they weren't good enough For anything but the cheapest love But oh, how things change Standing tall in the pale moonlight Ohh my gosh it was worth the drive and all the winding roads Took the long road but we found ourselves having the best time we've ever known So, the story told Apartment shopping Byars lane Hope built in a brand new place He played guitar she built the stage and every night she screamed his name Life was better than they ever knew Far from that small town where nothing grew And the people said they weren't good enough They proved them wrong with perfect love And oh, how things change Standing tall in the pale moonlight Ohh my gosh it was worth the drive and all the winding roads Took the long road but we found ourselves having the best time we've ever known So, the story told Bright lights as the band rolled in He moved on to bigger things Left her behind with an empty kiss Saying "I could do better than this" Hotel room on the 18th floor Where the girls came knocking at his door Maybe life was just teasing us And one day we'd find it meaningless Oh, how things change Standing tall under bright stage lights Oh my gosh was it worth the drive And all the winding roads I took the wrong road and I found myself Missing the one thing I wanted most So, the story told, So, the story told, So, the story told
