Hide And Seek
(Andrew Combs, Dylan LeBlanc)
Chunk of Coal Publishing (SESAC) / Good Daisy Music (ASCAP)
What’s the use in putting head before heart?
If you want it, go and get it
I lose my touch if I think too hard
So baby don’t sweat it
Out of your skin and into the atmosphere
No surprises, no smoke and mirrors
Let me make it very clear
If you want it, come and take it
I’m not a fool or trying to play the part
It’s yours and you can break it
In this game of hide and seek of the heart
You hide
I seek
To find
So come down, won’t you come my way
How else can I show it
High and haughty’s not a hiding place
I want you and you know it
Out of your skin and into my atmosphere
No more wrongs if right is oh so near
Let me make it clear
If you want it, come and take it
I’m not a fool or trying to play the part
It’s yours and you can break it
In this game of hide and seek of the heart
You hide
I seek
To find
The best I've heard from Steve Earle in a while. The songs have a subtler, earthier tone, tastefully rendered in authentic sounding country/blues/bluegrass stylings. 'J.T' reminds of earlier records like 'Feel Alright' or 'Train a Comin'.
Deep grief, love and compassion is felt on the final track, the only composition from Steve, seemingly written for his son. The rest, composed by JT, do confirm what a great songwriter he really was. tideracer
A vibrant vision of "Central Americana" from the Costa Rica-based artist, blending heartland devotionals with playful Tropicália grooves. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 27, 2022
He is masterful on the piano. Robert Ellis writes songs that grab your attention and are very well written and often times catchy and witty. I love the fact he mostly used the piano on this one. I wish more artists followed this pattern. Yimmy Kil
