about

Acoustic version of 'Nothing' with Mandolinist, Joe Brent, recorded live in Minneapolis in 2014.

lyrics

On my back there’s a sign called September
with the wind in my face and a drink in my hand
but you wouldn’t understand

I have tried everything I can think of
but you’ll never seen things the way that I do
But its not about you

Wouldn’t you know it takes a special kind of talent to slam shut every open door
Just when it looks like I can reach out there and grab it
I’m picking a fight over nothing
and I’m making her cry over nothing
and I’m taking my time all for nothing, nothing at all

Always guessed that by now it’d be over
Never stressed the details and never kept score
never wanted more

Drip by drip every moment was scattered
just a slip of the tongue and a brush of the hand
and an awkward dance

Wouldn’t you know it takes a special kind of talent to slam shut every open door
Just when it looks like I can reach out there and grab it
I’m picking a fight over nothing
and I’m making her cry over nothing
and I’m taking my time all for nothing, nothing at all

All I want is to savor the moment
while there’s moments to savor

Wouldn’t you know it takes a special kind of talent to slam shut every open door
Just when it looks like I can reach out there and grab it
I’m picking a fight over nothing
and I’m making her cry over nothing
and I’m taking my time all for nothing, nothing at all
