From the recording Stuck On You
This classic jazz standard was written by Johnny Mercer and Jimmy Van Huesen. It's a beautiful story about a person leaving on a train but having left his love behind. This song features Justin Ray (trumpet) as well as Taylor Pierson (piano), Zack Page (bass), Rick Dilling (drums), and James Hammel (vocal and guitar).
Lyrics
I Thought About You
Johnn¥ Mercer/Jimmy Van Huesen
I too a trip on a train,
And I thought about you.
Looked down a shadowy lane,
And I thought about you.
Two or three cars,
parked under the stars,
A shining stream.
Moon shining down on,
some little town,
And with each dream,
The same old dream.
With every stop that we made,
I just thought about you.
And when I pulled down that shade,
I really felt blue.
I peeked through that crack,
And I looked at that track,
The one running back to you.
And what did I do?
I thought about you.
Solo
With every stop that we made,
I just thought about you.
And when I pulled down that shade,
I really felt blue.
I peeked through that crack,
And I looked at that track,
The one running back to you.
And what did I do?
What did I do?
I thought about you.
I took a trip on a train.
