about

Imaginary Baseball League was an indie rock band from Murfreesboro/Nashville, TN from 2001-2005. The band released two EPs (The Letter/Cardiact) and one LP (Revive) and spent time touring the Eastern USA before quietly disbanding in 2005. Prior to breaking up, the band recorded a second full length LP that was never properly released. After nearly 16 years, The Inevitable Parting will finally see the light of day later this Spring.

lyrics

"Partners In Time"

your folks were in love in the 70's
I've seen your home videos
they lifted you up on their shoulders
you were the star of their show
and as if they were inanimate
smiles wrapped faces like scarves
neverending, ever-bending
unaware they would become scars

and it's come to mind
we are partners in time
it's come to mind
we are partners in time

my folks were in love the 70's
inside your same zip code
preparing for the explosion
of the familial fold
but I have no videos to speak of
just the grey of withered happenings
just the pictures of smiles expiring
just the sound of sadness sighing

and it's come to mind
we are partners in time
it's come to mind
we are partners in time

and we took our trials to other towns
to exact a rebirth of mind
we kept the roots buried underground
and out of ourselves we climbed
we suffered through all the growing pains
oh, we hunted and kissed and cried
and failure's always probable
when love is not on your side

and it's come to mind
we are partners in time
it's come to mind
we are partners in time

you came to me in a dream
you came to me in real life
you saw the to the darkest part of me
and in it you shined your light
our folks were in love in the 70's
but our folks, they gave up the ghost
but we are in love eternally
our children will get us both
