  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    "Nearly 30 years after his first album, Gordon should be better known, as should Christensen, who was a staple in the Los Angeles punk and jazz scenes before her extraordinary collaborations with Leonard Cohen, and then a solo career. But these things happen. Now comes a record that adroitly fuses Christensen’s exploratory vocals with Gordon’s vividly drawn emotional and physical landscapes. The result brings out the best in both of them, especially in the way Christensen unearths veins of gold that were hiding in plain sight..." - Amos Perrine, NO DEPRESSION

lyrics

Rest Your Head
(©Kevin Gordon, Little Rain Music BMI)


Stars above the clouds tonight that I can’t see

Pictures swirling up in my head say what you mean to me

You're a thousand miles away

You get tired this time of day

That bad feeling ain’t all it seems

Baby rest your weary head and dream



Work is good but wants to steal away our time

Hours and frustrations lead to nothing but

Paper dollars and thin dimes

It’s here and then it’s gone

So we labor on

Polished shoes and Listerine

Baby rest your weary head and dream



Rest a while

Hear that laughing river flow

When I find it I’ll follow it

As far as it goes



Cool wind in the shadow of a redwood tree

I can’t see that bird but I’m a fool to think

it’s singing just for me

Whippoorwill or mockingbird,

Lonesome song ain’t got no words

But I think I know what it means

Baby rest your weary head and dream



Rest a while

Hear that laughing river flow

When I find it I’ll follow it

As far as it goes


And that bad feeling ain’t all it seems

Baby rest your weary head and dream

Baby rest your weary head
