All The While I Was Away

from Gethsemane by Reece Sullivan

/

about

Written circa 2008, Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

lyrics

All the while I was away
I was slaving through the night
While my neighbors were asleep
In my window was a light

All the while I was away
I was seldom understood
But my debts are fully paid
And I've done all I said I would

Try and catch me if you can
Come on, give it all you've got
I am just a mortal man
But I'm headed for the top

All the while I was away
I was groping searching, blind
But my faith had grown in ways
I didn't ask for any signs

All the while I was away
I stayed focused and worked fast
And the promises I made
I've delivered on, at last

Try and catch me if you can
Come on, give it all you've got
I am just a mortal man
But I'm headed for the top

There ain't that much to understand
But that my will will not be stopped
Try and catch me if you can
But I'm headed for the top

My latest incarnation has me playing out often, sometimes touring, and writing and recording consistently. ... more
