THE TIMBERS

about

From the critically acclaimed 2018 album release SEEING THINGS by Eb & Sparrow

"a genuinely show-stopping sound" James Belfield - NZ Listener

"the band is bigger, better, sharper, darker" Simon Sweetman - Off The Tracks

"Eb and Sparrow’s Seeing Things is a beautifully made, richly atmospheric record. The playing is subtle and understated, and has been captured and rendered to something close to perfection by producer and engineer Brett Stanton" Nick Bollinger The Sampler RNZ

"an impressive vault upward into a different and more rewarding musical landscape and ethos" Graham Reid - Elsewhere

"The band is quietly brilliant; lapsteel, brass and strings provide texture, but at the heart of the record is Lamb’s indelible, soul-stirring vocal performance" Jeremy Quinn - Otago Daily Times

lyrics

4.THE TIMBERS
SWEET HONEY OF DECEMBER
I’M THE HARD ONE TO PLEASE
I FEEL THAT THE TIMBERS
OF THESE TREES, ARE GOING TO LEAVE
 
STRIKE ON A MATCH FOR ME
PUT OUT MY BAD COMPANY
I’M THE RECKLESS ONE BABY
AND I KNOW, THAT YOU WANT ME
 
SHAKE IT BABY, SHAKE IT LIKE YOUR GOING TO RAIN
EVERYBODY HERE, WANTS TO KILL THEIR PAIN
SHAKE IT BABY, SHAKE IT LIKE YOUR GOING TO RAIN
EVERYBODY HERE, GOT A LITTLE DREAM
 
SWEET HONEY OF DECEMBER
I’M GOING TO STAND IN OUR TREE
I FEEL THAT THE TIMBERS, GOING TO CARRY ME
 
STRIKE ON A MATCH FOR ME
PUT OUT MY BAD COMPANY
I’M THE RECKLESS ONE BABY
AND I KNOW, THAT YOU WANT ME
 
SHAKE IT BABY, SHAKE IT LIKE YOUR GOING TO RAIN
EVERYBODY HERE, WANTS TO KILL THEIR PAIN
SHAKE IT BABY, SHAKE IT LIKE YOUR GOING TO RAIN
EVERYBODY HERE, GOT A LITTLE DREAM

For G.A.
