A Coat of Many Colors Lyrics


I don't live like the others
I see twice as many colours
When you know tomorrow is just a day
You're not as quite like the others
Wrap your spirit around the chambers of my heart
Bury your secrets in the lucky stars
Got a friend like no other
She's a fire and a lover
From time to time she owns the sky
Sometimes shes right beneath the cover
Wrap your spirit around the chambers of my heart
Bury your secrets in the lucky stars
Back and forth goes the water
Through the stile and through the garden

When you wonder how you'll be found in the sea of others
I gave you a coat of many colours
From time to time
I turn my eye
To release your high
This could be why
I'll take you right over
I'll take you right over

As a native of Missouri, Israel Nash grew up slap bang in the heartland of America. Ever restless, Israel was somehow destined to take the well travelled road to New York City where his songwriting skills were properly put to the test. In 2011 he released Barn Doors and Concrete Floors. The album was recorded live in an old barn in upstate New York and was an ode to Israel’s influences in the shape of Neil Young and the Rolling Stones; widespread critical acclaim followed and thereby ushered in a new, classic songwriter to the scene.“music soaked in rural American lore.”

Israel Nash has now signed to Loose Music and is commencing the next chapter of his career. The forthcoming album Rain Plans was inspired by Israel’s new home outside Austin, deep in Texas hill country. The young songwriter has fully embraced the meandering hills and endless skies of his Texas home, where you can find yourself so isolated that it is not uncommon for your path to be crossed by a tumbleweed or to hear the percussive warning of an agitated rattlesnake. There is an uneasiness that goes alongside the visual thrill of living in the untainted Lone Star hills and Rain Plans is a testament to the overwhelming grandeur of nature and our place in it. These songs are about finding solace in family and the fear of the future – knowing what you’ll never know and the uncertainty that comes with that knowledge. At times melancholy celebrations and at other times raw guitar rock, Israel’s new surroundings have helped him create a tone only hinted at in his previous work and a songwriting sophistication that comes with great time and effort. Rain Plans is new territory for Israel Nash Gripka, both literally and figuratively, as well as an expression of his finding a strange sort of direction in the fragility of existence.
