Aaron Jaxon Band performs "I'll Be Gone For a While," a song built on two voices trading the same refrain over imagery of shadows, ego, and locked windows. Repetition and metaphor create a melancholic mood about departure and the longing that follows.
tickets for free, but they wouldn't let me behind the wheel.
So I'll be gone for a while, I'll be gone for a while. Remove the lock from your window, baby, I'll be gone for a while.
The sun was casting its shadow when you put your mark on my neck. Sometimes you're deep, some you're shallow. Well, I play the organized wreck. Roll to cloudy at midnight, take you straight to the sky. You wear your inside out right here, babe. I'll be gone for a while.
I'll be gone for a while. I'll be gone for a while. Remove the light from your window, baby. I'll be gone for a while. I'll be gone for a while. I'll be gone for a while. Move the light from your window, baby. I'll be gone for a while.
Sometimes I feel like a lion, ego bigger than skin. So lay me down with the lion. In heaven, though not in the den. So take your note and a maple, make 'em bloody and dry. I left a note on your table saying I'll be gone for a while.
So I'll be gone for a while. I'll be gone for a while. Remove the lock from your window, baby. I'll be gone for a while. So I'll be gone for a while. I'll be gone for a while. Remove the light from your window, baby, and I'll be gone for a while.
I'll be gone for a while. I'll be gone for a while. Remove the light from your window, baby, and I'll be gone for a while. I'll be gone for a while. I'll be gone for a while. Remove the light from your window, baby, and I'll be gone for a while.
I'll be gone for a while. I'll be gone for a while. With the light from your window, baby, I'll be gone for a while.
