From the recording The Australian Sessions
Written by Brian Baker (APRA). Published by Origin Music
Vocals: Kylie Horner, Sammy Horner
Guitars, Bass, Drums, Mandolin: Brian Baker
Accordion: Kylie Horner
Notes… Our Aussie producer Brian Baker asked if Kylie could sing on one of his songs. We liked the vibe and it sat well on the record, so we added it to the ten we had already chosen. We like the idea of willingly putting our selves out for another and holding the darkness at bay!
Lyrics
I must be out of my mind
To put myself on the line
But I do it willingly for you
In the past I’ve been a fool
But I’ll bend my only rule
And I’ll do it willingly for you
Because it’s more than the sunlight
Through the frozen trees bouquet
The steam rising up
In the morning foggy grey
More than the night
Calling out your name
More than wine on the table
That makes me want to stay
I must be out of my mind
To put myself on the line
But I do it willingly for you
In the past I’ve been a fool
But I’ll bend my only rule
And I’ll do it willingly for you
When we talk into the morning
Holding the darkness at bay
And we walk into the wilderness
To celebrate the day
When my old boots crunch beside yours
In the gravel of the track
I know that life will not be grinding us
Like dust into the cracks
I must be out of my mind
To put myself on the line
But I do it willingly for you
We have one a hell of a time
When we’re out on that line
And I do it willingly for you
Yes I'll do it willingly for you
