lyrics

A Little While ©Angry Johnny And The Killbillies
Bonesaw Lullaby BMI

All of the love that I could muster
It just was not enough
Under my thunder and my bluster
I’m really not that tough
So I crack a smile and laugh
Say baby everything’s Ok
Don’t worry ‘bout me now
If you gotta go away

Life is fast and it is fleeting
And there’s never enough time
So I took a chance and laid my heart
Right there out on the line
And it’s all yours for the taking
If you think you wanna try
Just grab it ‘cause it’s breaking
And I think I’m gonna die

You’re as lovely as a flower
You’re as pretty as the sky
And I’m dreaming ‘bout you darlin’
Though my eyes are open wide
Could’ve been a couple hours
Could’ve been a thousand years
In the end it doesn’t matter
It was worth a million tears

I can see you in the morning
With the rising of the sun
I can hear you in the evening
When the day is almost done
I can taste you in the water
I can smell you in the breeze
And it feels like I’m drowning
In that icy Baltic Sea

Well I don’t know how it started
Don’t know how it’s gonna end
I just know it feels good
To have this old heart beat again
But the end’s not something
That I wanna think about today
There’ll be plenty time for crying
On the day you go away

So sing for me my darlin’
Won’t you sing for me a song
I don’t care what it’s about
Just make it sweet and make it long
Put your finger on the button
And blow everything away
A world without you is a place
Where I don’t wanna stay

So I’ll think about you darlin’
While I’m driving through the night
And I’ll tell myself that everything
Is gonna be alright
And I’ll dream about your body
Of your face and of your smile
And I’ll be thankful for the little time we had
Though it was just a little while
Just for a little while
For a little while
I wish it had been longer
For a little while
For a little while
I’ll dream about your smile
For a little while longer.....

I get on with my days
In a permanent haze
People think it’s a phase
But my madness is growing…

in the company of his music, leaving the city with a bad car and a good pair of boots, a few sweet cigarettes and with the right pair of eyes, you see the sunlight on the mountains, and you think they are the same as someone else around for the world sees in his day of freedom TIASO

Trouble of this World
by Uncle Sinner

This album grows on me more and more with each listen. Bodner's approach to taking traditional music and reworking it and weaving it into his own personal narrative is amazing. On Into Grace, his own narrative is in the forefront. mad_wanderer
