11 While I Miss You
Danielle Howle – Acoustic Guitar & Vocals
Josh Roberts – Electric Guitar
Kerry Brooks – Upright Bass
Tony Lauria – Accordion
There was a cloud shaped like a C in the sky
The return red light blinked to my right
And a full moon lit up the lake that night
While I missed you
I sang five of them shows in three days
Best as I could, yeah the money got made
And the good times came
I’m just grateful to play
While I miss you
If I could drive over the Lake Murray dam
The river would deliver to the place where you’re at
If I could make future turn into past
Live peace like a wave that keeps beating on that
I’d do anything you ask just to rock you
Circumstances beyond all control
Turned that cloud into a thousand white holes
Still the moon lit up the lake as we rolled
While I miss you
If the course is marked and navigation is true
All that’s wrought on the journey’s just glue
And the destination is something I do
While I miss you
If I could drive over the Lake Murray dam
That brown little river would carry me where
If I could make future turn into past
Live peace like a wave that keeps beating on that
I’d do anything you ask just to rock you
Oh, I’d do anything you ask just to rock you
Sunday’s working on an awful full moon
Giving off shadows and making things new
But nothing abstracts the beautiful truth
Why I miss you
