Rabbit Hole, Rosanne Cash

Rabbit Hole is a song by Rosanne Cash. It is featured on her latest album 'She Remembers Everything.'

She wrote this song for her friends Joe Henry and Billy Bragg.



After a serious operation in 2007, it was a struggle for her to return to the stage. Seeing Joe and Billy perform helped her through it.

She wrote this wonderful song for them. A great song about the power of friendship. Cherish it !



I just want a road that bends
A love that wins
An honest friend
I just want a night of peace
A blessed relief
I want to make you see

That you in your crumpled splendor
When you sing to the farthest rafter
With your big life full of love and laughter
Can pull me up from the rabbit hole

To show me the road that bends
The love that wins
You're an honest friend
And you'll give me that night of peace
Blessed relief
You can make me see

That you with your light and glory
With your old dreams and epic stories
You seal all the darkened doors
And pull me up from the rabbit hole

I just want a road that bends
A love that wins
An honest friend
I'm looking for a night of peace
Blessed relief
You could make me see

That you, with your soldier's honor
You kind man and plainsong scholars
You sound like a million dollars
You pull me up from the rabbit hole 


P.S. : A limited release of the album 'She remembers Everything' features letters exchanged between her and Joe (and a few more)
