       Sister Hazel is an American alternative rock band from Gainesville, Florida, whose style blends elements of jangle pop, folk rock, classic rock and southern rock.

      Chasing Daylight, released in 2003, is Sister Hazel's fourth studio album.

        Sister Hazel formed in Gainesville, Florida, in 1993 and was named for Sister Hazel Williams, a local missionary who ran a homeless shelter. The group released its self-titled debut album in 1994, through its independent record label Croakin' Poets. Shortly after its release, singer/guitarist Ryan Newell and drummer Mark Trojanowski joined the band. Newell played on the album before officially joining the group.

     The band's second album, ...Somewhere More Familiar was released in 1997 and sold approximately 30,000 copies through its initial pressing, prompting Universal Records to sign the band. Universal re-released ...Somewhere More Familiar in late 1997. A single from the album, "All For You" hit Nº 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 and remains the band's most successful single.

          The band's third álbum Fortress was released in 2000 by Universal. The band worked with producers Mike Clink(Guns N' Roses, Mötley Crüe, Heart), Richie Zito (Cheap Trick), and Paul Ebersold (3 Doors Down). The album featured minor pop hits "Champagne High" and "Change Your Mind."

I'm not right, I'm not fine

I wanna be rain that tastes like wine

I wanna be good, I wanna be great

I wanna be everything except for your mistake

 

Send me inside your mind

I wanna know what you're thinking

This time, I'll try

To be the one you always thought you knew

 

It's true, I'm blue

And without you

 

I'm not right, I'm not fine

I wanna be rain that tastes like wine

I wanna be good, I wanna be great

I wanna be everything except for your mistake

 

Let me into your view

I wanna know how you see this thing

That's us, well I must

Keep managing my madness over you

 

It's true, I'm blue

And without you

 

I'm not right, I'm not fine

I wanna be rain that tastes like wine

I wanna be good, I wanna be great

I wanna be everything except for your mistake

 

I don't want your sympathy

Just understanding

Would we be better off if I just took some time

To try to understand you?

 

I'm not right, I'm not fine

I wanna be rain that tastes like wine

I wanna be good, I wanna be great

I wanna be everything except for your mistake

 

I'm not right, I'm not fine

I wanna be rain that tastes like wine

I wanna be seen, I wanna get clean

I wanna just fall out of in between

 

I'm not right, I'm not right

I don't want to be your mistake.
