From the recording Live In Wellington Volume 1
This was one of my big brother Wayne's favorite songs from one of his favorite albums and movies; The Harder They Come. After he passed away in November of 2007 I learned this song in honor of him-it was hard to sing this one at first but I would have to sing through the tears while performing it at Nicole's Village Tavern.
Lyrics
SITTING IN LIMBO
Sitting here in Limbo
But I know it won't be long
Sitting here in Limbo
like a bird without a song
well they're putting up a resistance,
But I know that my faith will lead me on.
Sitting here in limbo
Waiting for the dice to roll.
sitting here in Limbo,
got some time to search my soul.
well they're putting up a resistance,
But I know that my faith will lead me on.
I don't know where life will lead me,
But I know where I have been.
I can't say what life will show me,
But I know what I have seen.
Tried my hand at love and friendship,
But all that is past and gone.
this little boy is moving on
Sitting here in Limbo
waiting for the tide to flow
I'm sitting here in Limbo
knowing that I have to go
well they're putting up a resistance,
But I know that my faith will lead me on.
I don't know where life will lead me,
But I know where I've been.
I can't say what life will show me,
But I know what I've seen.
Tried my hand at love and friendship,
but all that is past and gone.
this little boy is moving on.
Sitting here in Limbo
waiting for the tide to flow
sitting here in Limbo
knowing that I have to go
well they're putting up a resistance,
But I know that my faith will lead me on.
Sitting in Limbo,
Sitting in Limbo,
Sitting in Limbo.
