5.	5 and 1 (Distant the Heart) 04:03	lyrics	buy track
When will I meet you And what will I say I'll know if I see you Well is it today Will God reveal you If only I pray For Love…. Risking rejection Only seeking a smile No finding perfection I've looked for a while Just pick a direction I'll travel the miles For Love…. More distant the heart The louder it screams The older I get The harder it seems Finding the woman That's there in my dreams Of Love…. Movie romances Rarely show you the pain When taking the chances With nothing to gain Catching the glances Just isn't the same As Love…. Yesterdays gone Don't live in the past Both can be wrong To slow or to fast Just make today strong And you'll find it lasts With Love…. More distant the heart The louder it screams The older I get The harder it seems Finding the woman That's there in my dreams Of Love….. When will I meet you And what will I say I'll know if I see you Well is it today Will God reveal you If only I pray For Love…. Yesterdays gone Don't live in the past Both can be wrong To slow or to fast Just make today strong And you'll find it lasts With Love…. More distant the heart The louder it screams The older I get The harder it seems Finding the woman That's there in my dreams Of Love….

about

PROJECT 814
Project 814 was the first solo project from Jon Pomplin after leaving Sea of Monsters in late 2000. A return to the truth in rock music by combining elements of traditional classic rock with progressive tendencies and meaningful lyrics was the goal of this project. Launched in a time when the music industry superpowers appeared focused on force-feeding the public "manufactured" boy bands, "sexually enhanced" teenyboppers and the self-destructive screams of metallic rappers, "Declassified" is another salvo fired in an effort to further unveil the fact that there is truth and talent found in independent music. Songwriter/Bassist/Producer Jon Pomplin has created a journey that explores ideas about teen suicide, alcoholism, spirituality and the eternal search for love. Jon runs the gambit and puts it all out on the table for the listener with his powerful lyrical imagery and intricate musical soundscapes.The CD features Jon Pomplin on bass, Mark Summers on guitar, Jim Miller on keyboards, Bob Brady on percussion.
