Some bands insist on dragging listeners into their world, but Richmond, VA's Carbon Leaf works towards a more admirable and considerably more difficult goal – that of letting perfect strangers feel that the band understands their world. Since 1992, the band has succeeded in doing just that -- and on its third Vanguard release, Nothing Rhymes With Woman, has created a soundtrack suitable for multiple worlds.
“For me, this is an album that’s focused on growth and maturity, but it’s not deadly serious,” says front man Barry Privett.
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
DAG Call my friends to share some wine DAG To share some laughs, and last goodbyes DAG My photographs of these years DAG Will make me laugh through the tears
Bridge:
DA What are the odds, what are the odds? G This ends and we don't meet again DA What are the odds, What are the odds? G That I will miss your smile
Chorus:
EEC Take awhile! Take awhile! Take care and DA Fly away and see the world EEC Take awhile! Take awhile! Take time and DA If you need rest, I'll keep your nest D Changeless
Verse 2 (same as before):
Let fondness be our souvenir To keep it warm, we'll keep it near Otherwise with no heart to recall... A memory's just a memory after all I will not leave this pulse alone Though it may take the long way home I will not wait until the end For my applause for you my friend
Bridge (same as before):
What are the odds, what are the odds? This ends and we don't meet again What are the odds, what are the odds? This ends and we won't meet again What are the odds, What are the odds? That I have missed your smile
Chorus (same as before):
Take awhile! Take awhile! Take care and Fly away and see the world Take awhile! Take awhile! Take time and If you need rest, I'll keep your nest Changeless
