lyrics

it's been one hard week
since I've been away from you
looking out my doorway
what I see is nothing new

well I went to the kitchen
and I found some mr. gleam
well I took a little sip
and I had a little dream

that I kissed you
oh baby how I miss you

well you screamed and you shook
"go to hell and don't come back"
please know that I won't hurt you
lay my head down on the tracks

something led me to your door
something made my knuckles knock
something made my mouth fall open
you shut the door and turned the lock

oh honey I miss you
oh baby how I miss you

well now where have you gone?
how long will you be?
I've been down so long about you babe
that down do worry me

well I guess I'll go to sleep now
Billie's singing in my dreams
well I try and make her face out
her voice is ripping at the seams

oh honey I miss you

about

Ben Kreader Los Angeles, California

Ben Kreader writes songs driven by the rhythm of the road and framed by the pain of the blues. His Chicago roots bring tornados, rain, and sky to his lyrics, mirroring the Midwest's meditative melancholy. Influenced by art-pop pioneers, Ben melds country-folk narratives and blues vocals with a dense forest of electronics and beats into simple songs of love and loss. ... more
