johnh76 The trio format here leaves plenty of elbowroom (sorry) for the musicians to delight the listener, both individually and collectively as a band. I feel a really strong connection to this soulful music. Thanks to everyone involved. Favorite track: Cameraderie.

Bonnie Single Hold my hand there’s no angle I can’t wait for that day when we’re arm in arm And you’re holding my hand Who wants to be loved who wants to be clyde Who wants to be loved who wants to be clyde Who wants to be loved who wants to be clyde Who wants to be loved who wants to be clyde And our eyes they will glitter And our souls they will cling together Our smiles, they will rise and fall like tides I’ve been waiting for my leader I’ve been pining for my keeper My accomplice to my dreams of robbing banks and riding seas Who wants to be loved who wants to be clyde Who wants to be loved who wants to be clyde Who wants to be loved who wants to be clyde Who wants to be loved who wants to be clyde

You may have everything You may have the beauty You may have the fleet but you ain’t got the beast You don’t have the market cornered Some folks like the others Some folks like the ones who have to fight for it I may not be the wit I may not be the It I may not have it all together But I’m born of love And made of leather. You don’t have the market cornered Some folks like the others Some folks like the ones who have to risk it all Ooooo

Cameraderie 04:18
I need your best I need just your kind of prowess I’ve never been so good with the gush, you know but I mean it There’s room for one of every kind I need one like you are Count on the camaraderie in this rotten world I do I do I need you I need you I need you I wanna be there for your best I’ll be the bearer for your worst Better believe I’ll go for broke on you And I mean it There’s room for one of every kind I need one like you are Count on the camaraderie in the 11th hour I do I do I need you I need you I need you

Elbowroom 03:52
I want the same as you I want autonomy to do what I do To exist in the space I’m in with elbowroom I need some elbowroom Ooo This is a new day I’m in And I’m ready to begin Ooo Somehow I feel new I need some elbowroom We intend to arrive You don’t have to like it If the corners of your mouth are so stiff that you can’t smile Best to keep them down This is a new day I’m in And I’m ready to begin Elevator to the moon I need some elbowroom I need it ready for it 4x

Juice 03:10
Gotta get your answer Gotta get your answer Gotta get your answer Gotta get your answer It comes when you’re patient Comes when you’re expectant Comes when you hold out your hand It comes when you sweat And it comes when you invest Comes to those who get it Comes when you ain’t ready yet Comes when you sleep, dreaming it I don’t give a damn what they all say What the odds said what the cards said I don’t give a damn what your mama said What the odds said what the cards said Gotta get your answer Gotta get your answer Gotta get your answer Gotta get your answer

One day we’re gon’ look back at this And laugh 5x I’ve got better things to do I get to brood Earned this mood Did they put my reparations in the mail? No you say? Well ok, ok. People make me mad make me glad Ahh they make me sad People are People Make me mad Ahh they make me sad If you’re wondering what’s wrong Here’s a clue I’m in no mood But could be cordial for you One day we gon look back at this and laugh Heal what’s sad and it won’t hurt so bad People make me mad They make me glad Aw they make me sad People are People Make me mad And they make me sad One day we’re gon’ look back at this And laugh 5

Here Gone 03:17
You are the sun to my veins Warm to my soul I won’t watch you wither up I can cry for you today but I can’t make you turn I can’t make you care for you Whether or not I should, I cry for you (Just) as the sun’s too thin to hold, you’ll be here and you’ll be gone Oo whether or not I should I cry for you (Just) as the sun’s too thin to hold you’ll be here and you’ll be gone You are my anchor my peace of mind on earth What’d I do without you ‘round? You know I love you and I can cry for you But I can’t live one life but mine Oo whether or not I should I cry for you (Just) as the sun’s too thin to hold you’ll be here and you’ll be gone

Who You Are 02:24
Long as I been alive Had to stand keeping my head high Bloomed from the root is a bloom from the maker I keep shaking lies You got to know for yourself Who you are Stony the road we trod Bitter the chastening rod I’ve been through it Been under it I’ve been buried alive You’ve got to know for yourself who you are
