Carbon Leaf Lyrics


CARBON LEAF
Nothing Rhymes With Woman

Biography

Some bands insist on dragging listeners into their
world, but Carbon Leaf works towards a more admirable and
considerably more difficult goal – that of letting perfect
strangers feel that the band understands their world. The
band succeeds in doing just that -- and in creating a
soundtrack suitable for multiple worlds -- on its third
Vanguard release, Nothing Rhymes With Woman.
“For me, this is an album that’s focused on growth
and maturity, but it’s not deadly serious,” says front More...

Reviews about Carbon Leaf songs

War was in color | Reviewer: Howie
    ------ About the song The War Was In Color performed by Carbon Leaf

Just stumbled upon this song tonight. Didn't know it was in the Carbon Leaf library. Beautiful song sung perfectly by the band.

My 92 year old grandfather, WWII vet, doesn't speak much of the war, especially the liberation of the concentration camps. I'm afraid the war was and is very much still in color for him.


The War Was In Color | Reviewer: Jimmy
    ------ About the song The War Was In Color performed by Carbon Leaf

I've watched and followed Carbon Leaf for years now, since they played festivals and shows in theirs and my hometown of Richmond, VA. I saw the band live tonight in Charlotte, NC, and I can tell you, I was visibly shaken listening to and singing the words to this song. My grandfather served in WWII and it reminds me of him, but it also makes me think of the cost of war whenever I hear it. After the song tonight, a gentleman came up to me and asked if I was okay b/c he saw how deeply it affected me, and he told me it touched him, too, bc his father served in ww2 and he served in vietnam. I've never had any military service, but the lyrics are so beautiful and vivid, that they certainly touch you. I also had the opportunity to meet the band after this show and tell them how much I love their music. I recommend anyone to see one of their live shows - a ton of fun - and if you are fortunate enough to hear this song life, get out your kleenex!

    ------ About the song The War Was In Color performed by Carbon Leaf

This song sends shivers down your spine. I saw Carbon Leaf in Baltimore this past summer and they were amazing!!! I plan to see them in a couple weeks when they come thru to Hagerstown. I surely hope that these guys get more nationwide playtime. They are talented musicians - I went out and bought every album they had so far and cannot wait for further releases.


Inspirational and Comforting | Reviewer: Anonymous
    ------ About the song Let Your Troubles Roll By performed by Carbon Leaf

I first heard this song after the band was recommended to me by a classmate when I was experiencing a particularly difficult time in college. She was already a devoted Carbon Leaf fan, but she related their music to me when my relationship with my roommate was verbally and mentally abusive. Later that school year, my father passed away and I found so much comfort and relief in listening to their album "Indian Summer." Lyrically and melodically, I find their music beautiful, passionate, unique and endearing (among other descriptors). Thank you for your devotion to your art...it has aided me and I am sure countless others, too!

    ------ About the song Paloma performed by Carbon Leaf

Listening to the words of this poetry are nothing if not inspirational to me; the music lifted me up. I took the leap and got free of a life of abuse...I am chasing my dreams, hoping they erase the troubles in my head. I left my exposed soul behind. Great stuff...! I will continue to spread the word!


Growth and Developmeent | Reviewer: Sabra
    ------ About the song Learn To Fly performed by Carbon Leaf

I have been following these guys for quite some time. When I was making my way around the country, I stumbled upon them in the hills of West Virginia. They have grown so much in the past few years. I trust we'll be hearing more and more from them as time continues to pass.


Great Memories | Reviewer: E Spencer
    ------ About the song Big Strong Man performed by Carbon Leaf

My father-in-law used to vamp on the piano and he served in WW1 in the RCN. He was always called on to lead the sing-a-long and this song
was always called for. I heard him many time years ago. Thanks


What a great song! | Reviewer: Nighthawk
    ------ About the song The War Was In Color performed by Carbon Leaf

I came across this song by accident while setting up a closing flag retirement ceremony for a local BSA camp outside of Las Vegas, Nevada. I needed several songs so we could do the final US flag retirements. We had 25 flags that needed to be retired. While looking for songs I came across this one. After listening to it I knew this was the one. I found that Carbon Leaf had just performed it in front of several US Veterans’ during a special ceremony in Washington D.C. I was in tears thinking about both of my father-in-laws that served our great country. When we finished the ceremony there wasn’t a dry eye at the campfire. Several Veterans came up later and thanked us for the very memorial ceremony. I decided to purchase Carbon Leafs new album and love it. They really have some great songs. Texas Stars * Learn To Fly * A Girl and a Horse * The War Was In Color * Under the Wire * Bright Lights

perfect song for imperfect time | Reviewer: russ
    ------ About the song Let Your Troubles Roll By performed by Carbon Leaf

i first heard this song when carbon leaf performed at virginia tech about a week after the tragic shootings. the lyrics couldn't have been more perfect for the circumstances. in a sea of college students (including my daughter who was a VT freshman at the time) still recovering from the world's worst campus tragedy, no advice was more appropriate than "when all of your tears dry let your troubles roll by". i will never hear that song without thinking back to the pain of that experience. but i'll always remember the kindness and generosity of carbon leaf for playing to those kids, helping them find their way back from sorrow and giving them the performance of their lives. if you believe in karma then good things are coming carbon leaf's way.
