Cowboy Junkies have a new release, "One Soul Now"
As previously stated, I'm a huge fan of their slow, dark trainwrecks..the new one is more of the same feedback drenched beauti-noise as their last release, "OPEN"
two from the "One Soul Now"
"He Will Call You Baby"

He Will Call You Baby
(Michael Timmins)
He will call you baby
but will he listen when you cry?
He will call you sweetheart
but always seem apart.
He will tear all your fences down,
trample all into the ground.
He will call you baby.
She will call you honey
and leave you twisting in the wind.
She will call you darling,
keep you stunned and wondering.
She will take you to another world
where the winds of confusion swirl.
She will call you honey.
We should call them lucky
as they watch their babies dance.
Or maybe call them crazy
for even thinking they have a chance.
They will carry her as far as they can
then abandon her once again,
they will call her baby.
They will call her baby.

Notes Falling Slow
(Michael Timmins)
My love swears that he is made of truth
I do believe him though I know he lies.
I've caught him creeping 'round darkened holes.
I've caught him staring at distant skies.
I would have seen it coming but I'm blind with age.
Too much time on the battle line.
Shut it all out just let the notes fall slow.
Slow.
My love lives inside a haze of gloom.
He fears today, what might come tomorrow.
Seeks the shadow, shuns the light.
Bleeds for knowledge, prepares for sorrow.
I would have seen it coming but I'm blind with age.
Too much time on the battle line.
Shut it all out just let the note fall slow.
Slow.
This ain't no depression, just notes falling slow.
An early snow and notes falling slow.
Do I have the strength to bear their passion?
An early snow and notes |
