about

"Matter of Time" is a classic folk-rock tune. It's an ode to escaping the grind of daily routines in search of adventure, and adding some spark to a relationship by letting loose and "getting lost" together. Michael O'Connor's guitar licks sparkle and shine, while perfectly arranged backing vocals by Megan Burtt, John McVey, and Jen Morrison compliment Shulman's catchy melody.

lyrics

Matter of Time
© 2021 Carolyn Shulman

Where'd that old feeling go?
Did it drown in a bottle of wine?
Did we work so long, try so hard
We straightened every crooked line

Let's get lost, take a wrong turn
Screwing up's the best way to learn
We'll never get anywhere but bitter and burned
'Til we cross that line
It's just a matter of time

Well, sometimes the days go by
Like a matchbox starting to burn
Driving ‘round town, runs me into the ground
Peace and quiet is something you earn

Let's get lost, take a wrong turn
Screwing up's the best way to learn
We'll never get anywhere but bitter and burned
‘Til we cross that line
It's just a matter of time

Well I know you work all day,
And you must be so damn tired
But you know I love the way
I can count on you to break out a smile

Let's get lost, take a wrong turn
Screwing up's the best way to learn
We'll never get anywhere but bitter and burned
‘Til we cross that line
It's just a matter of time
We’ll never get anywhere but bitter and burned
‘Til we cross that line
It’s just a matter of time

Where’d that old feeling go?
Let’s open up a bottle of wine.
