The acoustic rock band Vertical Horizon was formed in 1990 by Georgetown University undergrads Matthew Scannell and Keith Kane; after graduation in 1991 the duo relocated to Boston and, in 1992, self-released their debut album There and Back Again. There and Back Again was recorded in Matt's old high school over a period of a few days, and Matt and Keith together played all the instruments appearing on the album, though they both mostly played acoustic guitar. Both also contributed to writing all the songs, and both sang. Matt and Keith toured for several years after this, mostly appearing with similar bands such as Jackopierce. By 1995, they were ready to record again.

Footprints In The Snow Lyrics
Vertical Horizon
Seems like only yesterday
But it started long ago
Trials tribulations
And notes in the autumn nights
We didnt know way back then
What brothers we really were
Letting the time pass quickly
And watching it go
Chorus:
But we stood together
And we made each other strong
We tried to comfort ourselves when the nights were long
And we held back the tears
When they needed to flow
But where we once stood lie only footprints in the snow
Even when it was hard
To find a smiling face
And when others would leave us
Without a trace
We never thought about tomorrow
Or what she might bring
We never stopped to realize
That we might not always sing
Chorus
Seems like only yesterday
God whered the time go
Where we once laughed lie only tears in the snow
