Words and Music by Bill Payne and James Taylor from James Taylor’s 1988 album "Never Die Young." [Verse 1] Me and T-Bone on the road to town It’s like I’m walking with a talking machine     Just as soon as he thinks of something else He won’t wait to interrupt    himself [Verse 2] Must be something that he can’t quite say He just doesn’t want to leave it that  way Although he may not know it yet Unless I miss my bet He’s just trying to forget What his heart remembers                               [Verse 3] I see that T-Bone got an automobile Low-loping and open to the sky      All night behind the hurricane wheel Riding in the eye [Verse 4] All day underneath the hood Mondo Bondo plastic wood He needs a mile of masking tape If he wants to keep his ship in shape Someday to escape What his heart remembers              Oh yes what his heart remembers   [Interlude] Fadd9  /  Fadd9    /   Bbadd9  Fadd9       [Verse 5] N.C      Bbadd9 T-Bone’s not alone not alone Looks like he gets a second chance It’s Mamarama and Lumalamalu Want to take him to   recovery dance [Verse 6] He’s looking like he gets his meatsuit back I guess he must have missed the crack attack Still he’s riding for a fall ’Cause it’s written upon the wall Now he must recall What his heart remembers            What his heart remembers yeah now                                  [Outro] /   Fadd9  /  Fadd9    /   /   Fadd9  /  Fadd9    /

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson raconte l’histoire de deux amis, dont l’un, T-Bone, semble lutter avec lui-même et ses souvenirs. En chemin vers la ville, T-Bone parle sans cesse, comme si ses pensées ne pouvaient pas se contenir. On sent qu’il essaie d’oublier certains aspects de son passé, mais ses souvenirs le hantent. Le contexte semble être celui d’un voyage en voiture, où T-Bone cherche à retrouver une certaine légèreté de vivre. Il a même un véhicule qui symbolise un nouveau départ, bien qu'il comprenne que la route peut être semée d’embûches. À travers tout cela, il y a un sentiment d'espoir et de renaissance, illustrant la lutte de T-Bone pour se reconnecter à lui-même et à son cœur.
