    Painted Door offers a rare look at Corday's solo acoustic years and her folk roots beginnings before her ten year hiatus brought on a shift towards electro-acoustic, alternative and cinematic americana. Longtime fans will find their favorite acapella songs, surprises and songs in Spanish and Portuguese. Here too is the love of subtlety and nuance that Corday continues to explore in her music today.

lyrics

(by John Denver)

The sun is slowly fading in the western sky
Sometimes it takes forever for the day to end
Sometimes it takes a lifetime
Sometimes I think I’ll never see the sun again

There’s a heavy smog between me and the mountains
It’s enough to make a grown man sit and cry
It’s enough to make you wonder
It’s enough to make the world roll up and die

I think it’s kind of interesting the way things get to be
The way that people work with their machines
Serenity’s a long time coming to me
The fact I don’t believe I know what it means anymore

In the east a shaded moon is hanging lazily
I do believe I saw the old man smile
I do believe I did
I do believe that he’s been laughing all the while

I think it’s kind of interesting the way things get to be
The way that people work with their machines
Serenity’s a long time coming to me
The fact I don’t believe I know what it means anymore

When the sun is slowly fading in the western sky
Sometimes it takes forever the day to end
Sometimes it takes a lifetime
Sometimes I think I’ll never see the sun again
The sun again, the sun again

We included this despite a radical amount of noise because it just felt special.
