breathe easy

For those of you interested in RB trivia, this is the first mandolin and vocals only song I’ve recorded since “big city, small town” on today is boring. I think. That may be wrong. And technically, that one had two mandolin parts. So maybe not. Disregard that whole statement.

Tour planning is coming right along; added Square Beans Coffee in Collierville, TN to the confirmed dates! I have a lot to do before I leave, including practicing and getting more comfortable with these newer songs. With a few exceptions, I’ve always worked the same way when it comes to recording: write a song, record it as soon as possible. So I don’t necessarily give myself time to learn the words and get comfortable.

The amazing Amanda Hawkins is working on designs for t-shirts, posters, and all that good stuff, so I’m really excited to see everything. She makes RB look really cool.

walk with me a little while, we will feel the wind
blow our hair around
and our feet will push the ground
in the direction we want it to go

stay with me a little while, we will feel the air
at least it’s fresh and new
it’s not that clean but it will do
oh we’ll breath easier, yes, you told me so

if there’s an answer hidden here
then you will be searching for a long, long time
and there’s a life that’s waiting to be found
but you know i’d never leave you behind

i’ve been here a little while, and i have felt the wind
come from down the mountain
twist and turn and back again
in my direction as if it might know

stay with me a little while, we will watch the sky
fade from black to blue
the day is here, we are too
and we’ll breathe easy, yes, you told me so

there’s an answer hidden here
and we’ve been searching for a long, long time
and there’s a life that’s waiting to be found
but you know i’d never leave you behind
