about

[Americana, Singer-Songwriter | waltz] (3:56) - This is the title track for the album “Annie Benjamin - Night Bird.” Annie draws upon lyrics in Hank Williams’ classic “I’m so Lonesome I Could Cry” and tells the story of a woman’s imagining that a lover from days past revisits her in the form of a whippoorwill. The song evokes a gothic sense of loneliness and memory and transcends space and time.

lyrics

Night Bird
© ℗ 2022 by Annie Benjamin, Rocket Girl Music (BMI)

Sing to me
Whippoorwill
The light’s fading fast
Behind the dark Alabama hills

Your sad slow song
And lonesome notes
Remind me of
A boy who sang to me long ago

Chorus:
Nightbird is it you
Do you sing ‘cause you’re broken and blue
Did the spirits lead you here
With a Silvertone, sure and clear

I wish I may
With all my might
Find a way
To hear you sing one more song for me tonight

Chorus:
Nightbird is it you
Do you sing ‘cause you’re broken and blue
Did the spirits lead you here
With a Silvertone sure and clear

Sing to me
Whippoorwill
The light’s fading fast
Behind the dark Alabama hills
