History Of Love
Written By Ezra Vancil & Leslie Wills

hey, girl, I think we’ve had enough
there’s a sadness that we can never rise above
my heart is heavy to be touched
it’s so crowded in the history of love

I made a promise on that wedding day
but I was wrong
that’s why I couldn’t stay

but I won’t go
I got no reason
i could love you just the same
with no possession
and no believing that I ever owned your name

babe when you finally lost your way
I didn't even realize we were through
there was just way too much to say
but now the conversation lags and there’s
nothing left to do

we made a promise, but everything has changed
I love you, babe... I know that’s why I couldn’t stay
but I won’t go

but I won’t go
I got no reason
I could love you just the same
with no possession
and no believing that I ever owned your name

Hey girl our history of love
it’s just a boring book on a shelf, but who can say
someday we’ll open up
and read this final page that we wrote today

don’t let me keep you cause it just ain't right
Don’t worry baby
I won’t even put up a fight

Easy On My Mind
by Kelley McRae

It's a great Americana mood album. I played a show and camped with this duo at Kerrville Folk Festival and they are also great people with a powerful live presence. ezra vancil

Ran into this on the ISC awards.. great feeling to the sonics of this recording. The sonics of it are what I come back to listen to.. it doesn't hurt that the songs are also fantastic trips. ezra vancil
