about

Variation based on the lyrics of "When your body takes" (Op.2)

lyrics

When your body takes
Mine is a-leavin'
When your body shakes
Mine is a-fadin'

But it's my body breaking
When yours is asleep
It's my body aching
And yours don't ever weep

When your moon is rising
And I'm all engulfed
I see the horizon
But you draw my gun

My body's resting
When yours is at war
I'm no good for wrestling
I'm scared of what you are

And I'm doing the best that I can
Yes I'm doing the best that I can
Yes I'm doing the best that I can
I'm doing my best Mary-Ann

Now the night is too slow
And the white is graying
Your eyes are too low
For the light to hit in

You once were a beggar
Now you're a crook
And you feel so much better
Not ashamed of what you took

And I'm doing the best that I can
Yes I'm doing the best that I can
Giving all I possibly am
I'm doing my best Mary-Ann

When your body peaks
Mine is ashamed
It's numb and it's weak
When your blood is aflame

But it's my body bleeding
When yours is away
It's my body needing
But yours don't ever pay

And I'm doing the best that I can
Yes I'm doing the best that I can
I'm doing my best Mary-Ann
Giving all I possibly can
Giving all I possibly am
Think of how it all began (wink to L.Cohen)

The Wooden Wolf France

The music of The Wooden Wolf, deeply sincere, is a music of spaces. They are big and wild, small and intimate, he absorbs the details and fills the void. It is an introspective music that nourishes text prose flower. His sensitivity make all the flavor of his compositions: a sensitivity as unique as universal. ... more
