Nilda - 10/21

January 1st, 2019

Recorded at Epilogue Epilogue Recording and Processing Studio
on the trusty tascam
Guitars - Lucas Tennen
Sax - Tony Rosenberg

I really don't know what to say about this one. It's a bossa tune. My voice is shot from new years last night. I've got a good feeling about this year. I'm tired and I want to get this one out on time, so I'll let it speak for it's self.

lyrics

Hey sister spin till the sun comes up
Got a link for a ride, got a link for a bump
All the vampires give it when there's youth in the air
When you can tumble an empire with jet black hair
So rockabye baby, one more song
You gave me the dream but now it's all gone wrong
Rockabye baby, can't catch your break
When you're given more than you can take

But then the conscious slips away
And you're seeing your reflection in the milky way
You don't think about it often but you think about it 'nuff to tell
I think about you often as well

Do you remember in the summertime
I was a wanderer an you were the sky
With an overnight bag, the tracks from your tears
I don't ask for the answers I don't want to hear
Rockabye baby, one more night
I may be young but I can set this right
But when the black car pulled with the money you spent
Hell, I don't give a fuck where she went

But then the objects every day
They seem to grasp you more in an ephemeral way
You don't think about it often but you think about it 'nuff to tell
I think about you often as well

Rockabye baby
On the tree tops
Rockabye baby
The cradle will rock
Feel the motion, feel the sway
And know you're comin crashing to the ground anyday
You don't think about it often but you think about it 'nuff to tell
(Oh, I wanna tell ya)
I think about you often as well
