CHRIS ISAAK - EXCEPT THE NEW GIRL

Drive your mustang down, to where you hang out
Alone without a friend
Girls walk by you, some in fact have tried you
But once they tried they never tried again
Except the new girl
Except the new girl
Alone and lonesome, trusting no one they say
You've never had a friend
People talk about you, they say they doubt you really
Ever let anybody in
Except the new girl
Except the new girl
I guess there's never been anyone
Except the new girl
Except the new girl
Last time I saw him, he was laughing
She was standing by his side
I've got a feeling, that they're still together
From the look that was in his eyes
There's no one
Except the new girl
Except the new girl
See him smile, he don't care
Says he loves her, and he'll always love her
See him smile, it seems fair
That he finally found her, finally hold her
There's no one
Except the new girl

Damien Jurado--Kola

 

I look back upon my time
See the snapshots of my life
You will not be suprised
See your name across my smile
See your name across my smile
And I will remember you
I will remember you
I will remember you
The way you are right now
The way you are right now
When I first came into view
I was older than you knew
Always going out of tune
Anytime you'd leave the room
Anytime you'd leave the room
And I will remember you
I will remember you
I will remember you
The way you are right now
The way you are right now
And I look back upon my time
See the snapshots of my life
You will not be suprised
See your name across my smile
See your name across my smile
And I will reemmber you
I will remember you
I will remember you
The way you are right now
The way you are right now

Chris Staples “Dark Side of the Moon”

I want to tell you a story
The only way that I can
I'm just replacing a man that came before me
One day the world is going to see
Another man replacing me
That's just the way it's got to be
It's always been that way

On the dark side of the moon
On the dark side of the moon

I want to love you
I want to pass it on
I want to give and give until it's all gone
I want to know you
While we have the time
Because that's all I got to leave behind

I want to love you
I want to pass it on
I want to give and give until it's all gone
I want to know you
While we have the time
Because that's all we got to leave behind

On the dark side of the moon
On the dark side of the moon

And when you stumble
You look the other way
And when you're riding high
Oh Lord, when you're riding high
They don't expect you to stay

I want to love you
I want to pass it on
I want to give and give until it's all gone
I want to know you
While we have the time
Because that's all I got to leave behind

I want to love you
I want to pass it on
I want to give and give until it's all gone
I want to know you
While we have the time
Because that's all we got to leave behind

On the dark side of the moon
On the dark side of the moon

Chris Staples - "Hold onto Something"

 

Well I told you everything that I could tell
But I guess I got a couple of words
That I have to take with me to hell
What do you expect a man like me to do?
Got to hold onto something
If I can't hold on to you
Got to hold onto something
If I can't hold on to you
Got to hold onto something
If I can't hold on to you
Got to hold onto something
If I can't hold on to you
Somethings are made for breaking
Soon enough they're broke
Settling down into dust
Going up in smoke
Well what do you expect a man like me to do?
Got to hold onto something
If I can't hold on to you
Got to hold onto something
If I can't hold on to you
Got to hold onto something
If I can't hold on to you
Got to hold onto something
If I can't hold on to you
Got to hold onto something
If I can't hold on to you
Got to hold onto something
If I can't hold on to you
Got to hold onto something
If I can't hold on

Lhasa de Sela - Love Came Here

There is no end to this story
No final tragedy or glory
Love came here and never left
Now that my heart is open
It can't be closed or broken
Love came here and never left
Now I'll have to live with loving you forever
Although our days of living life together
Of living life together are over
There's nothing here to throw away
I came to you in light of day
And love came here and never left
And love came here and never left

Koop - Koop Island Blues

 

Hello, my love
It's getting cold on this island
I'm sad alone
I'm so sad on my own
The truth is
We were much too young
Now I'm looking for you
Or anyone like you
We said goodbye
With a smile on our faces
Now you're alone
You're so sad on your own
The truth is
We ran out of time
Now you're looking for me
Or anyone like me
Hello, my love
It's getting cold on this island
I'm sad alone
I'm so sad on my own
The truth is
We were much too young
Now I'm looking for you
Or anyone like you

First Aid Kit--A Long Time Ago

 This is for a girl I know. 

I fell in love with you
Long before I knew
What it meant to give everything up
I was a rolling stone
Rolling my way alone
Till you came and made sense out of everything
But you couldn't wait
I couldn't promise you anything
If it was all a mistake
Then I guess we're both to blame
I could have been
So many things
But it would never be enough for you
I was the one
You counted on
But I was never the one for you
Now I know, I lost you a long time ago
City of strangers
Out of danger
In your arms, I was half awake, half asleep
Grab ahold to what I got
Regretting all that I'm not
I couldn't be the one who'd stand by your side
If it was all a mistake
Then I guess we're both to blame
I could have been
So many things
But it would never be enough for you
I was the one
You counted on
But I was never the one for you
Now I know, I lost you a long time ago
I hold no grudges
I come bearing forgiveness
Only love, only love
Even if it's not enough
Only love, only love
Even if it's not enough
Now I know, I lost you a long time ago
I could have been
So many things
But it would never be enough for you
I was the one
You counted on
But I was never the one for you
Now I know, I lost you a long time ago

Damien Jurado - Percy Faith (Official Video)

Mr. Percy Faith, is your masterpiece complete?
I'm in dire need of curing this headache
There are riots in the streets and
We're still not on the moon
And I hear that you've been
Taken from the airwaves
Joseph Raymond Conniff, I am writing from Seattle
Where they now have put a trademark on the rain
And having just arrived I am staying by the airport
It was tough to find a room at the Hyatt Inn
Alice in disguises
Bill Close taken hostage
"Dear Loretta, these are my demands"
I'll be selling Arizona to the next potential buyer
Who comes in from the north in search of sand
Mr. Allan Sherman, I am writing from the future
Where the people never look you in the eye
And there is no need to talk, and the
Sidewalks they walk for you
I know everything and yet no one at all

Greens of June--case/lang/veirs

 

Just in the moment
Everything's changed
My dark disposition
Has been rearranged
And what was I thinking
Out there on the ledge?
Your steady eyes pull me
Straight back from the edge
And all the greens of June
Come blowing through the door
They make me want to live
Like I never have before
From the oriental rug
You meet my gaze
And all my desperation
Retreats into the haze
And lilacs in the vase
Still got the life
By their witnesses
Perfume and light
And all the greens of June
Come blowing through the door
They make me want to live
Like I never have before
Just in the moment
Everything's changed
My dark disposition
Has been rearranged

The Unwelcome Guest--Billy Bragg and Wilco

 

To the rich man's bright lodges
I ride in this wind
On my good horse, I call you
My shiny black Bess
To the playhouse of fortune
To take the bright silver
And gold you have taken
From somebody else
And as we go riding
In the damp foggy midnight
You snort, my good pony
And you give me your best
For you know and I know
Good horse 'mongst the rich ones
How oftimes we go there
An unwelcome guest
I never took food
From the widows and orphans
And never a hardworking man I oppressed
So take your pace easy
For home soon like lightning
We soon will be riding
My shiny black Bess
No fat rich man's pony
Can ever overtake you
And there's not a rider
From the east to the west
Could hold you a light
In this dark mist and midnight
When the potbellied thieves
Chase the unwelcome guest
I don't know, good horse
As we trot in this dark here
That robbing the rich
Is for worse or for best
They take it by stealing
And lying and gambling
And I take it my way
My shiny Black Bess
I treat horses good
And I'm friendly to strangers
I ride and your running
Makes my guns talk the best
And the rangers and deputies
Are hired by the rich man
To catch me and hang me
My shining black Bess
Yes, they'll catch me napping one day
And they'll kill me
And then I'll be gone
But that won't be my end
For my guns and my saddle
Will always be filled
By unwelcome travelers
And other brave men
And they'll take the money
And spread it out equal
Just like the Bible
And the prophets suggest
But men that go riding
To help these poor workers
The rich will cut down
Like an unwelcome guest

Nina Simone--My Baby Just Cares for Me

 

My baby don't care for shows
My baby don't care for clothes
My baby just cares for me
My baby don't care for cars and races
My baby don't care for high-tone places
Liz Taylor is not his style
And even Lana Turner's smile
Is somethin' he can't see
My baby don't care who knows
My baby just cares for me
Baby, my baby don't care for shows
And he don't even care for clothes
He cares for me
My baby don't care
For cars and races
Baby don't care for
He don't care for high-tone places
Liz Taylor is not his style
And even Liberace's smile
Is something he can't see
Is something he can't see
I wonder what's wrong with baby
My baby just cares for
My baby just cares for
My baby just cares for me

Jenny Owen Youngs - F**k Was I [Official Music Video]

 

I fell in love and forgot about the homeless the hunger in Africa the women on welfare the strippers who need healthcare my friends the beggar the thieves
I fell in love and forgot my own mother my father my sister my grandma it killed her and waltzed around baby wishing you’d notice me
In my mind the light shines so equally
You can call it electricity
But why waste our energy?In my eyes I could be happy
But I stink of Depravity
Just and aching dark cavity
Oooh
I fell in love and threw out all my pencils my books and drew big hearts with red colored stencils and became pickled mush atrophied
I fell in love and I stopped all my eating clung on to your arms and forgot I was living but remembered the kitties and the pretty girls on your street
In my mind the light shines so equally
You can call it electricity
But why waste out energy?
In my eyes I could be happy
But I stink of Depravity
Just and aching dark cavity
I fell in love and forgot my own mother my father my sister my grandma it killed her and waltzed around baby wishing you’d notice me
I’m a fool

Moon River--The Innocence Mission

Moon River, wider than a mile,
I'm crossing you in style some day.
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker,
wherever you're going I'm going your way.
Two drifters off to see the world.
There's such a lot of world to see.
We're after the same rainbow's end--
waiting 'round the bend,
my huckleberry friend,
Moon River and me.

Adalina Roselma--Oakley Hall

Vetiver & Hope Sandoval - Angels' Share

Makeshift moon mends a broken sky
Fields of fallow still stands dry
Night not gentle, soon for the night

Her mistake was to trust in him
His bodily excuse again
Yeah, the voices hard like the wind

Said, "I'm tired of you coming home late"
"I will do as I please, Kate
"There's no one gon' tell me how to be"
"Not for my sake, Tom, for the family"

He read guilt when she pled love
Got anxious and began to shove
Clouds have been kept loomed above

Curses raise the kids from bed
They fell down the stairs in time to see
The blood run warm down Kate's head

While the wounds in silence came to scars
Tom kept hitting the juke joint bars
All the love vanished in the air
Filled with paper vows and the angels' share

Jr Walker & Allstars - Shotgun

 

I said shotgun
Shoot 'em for he run now
Do the jerk baby
Do the jerk now
Hey
Put on your red dress
And then you go downtown now
I said buy yourself a shotgun now
We're gonna break it down, baby now
We're gonna load it up, baby now
And then you shoot him for he run now
I said shotgun
Shoot 'em for he run now
Do the jerk baby
Do the jerk now
Hey
Shotgun
Shoot 'em for he run now
Do the jerk baby
Do the jerk now
Hey
Put on your high heel shoes
I said we're goin' down here to listen to 'em play the blues
We're gonna dig potatoes
We're gonna pick tomatoes
I said shotgun
Shoot 'em for he run now
Do the jerk baby
Do the jerk now
Hey
I said it's twine time
I said it's twine time
I said it's twine time
Hey, what'd I say?




This ending line has resulted in much confusion from listeners then and now, and even Motown boss Berry Gordy misheard it. Junior Walker recalled in a later interview with Nelson George:


At session’s end even Berry asked, “What are you saying at the end, man? What were you saying at the end? … Sounded like you were saying ‘Crying time.’” I said, “No, it’s Twine Time.‘” He said, “Well, it’s pretty good, it’s pretty good.” Then he called me three weeks later and said, “Man, this record is tearin’ up.”

La La Means I Love You: The Delfonics

Many guys have come to you
With a line that wasn't true
And you passed them by
(Passed them by)
Though you're in the center ring
And their lines don't mean a thing
Why don't you let me try?
(Let me try)
Now, I don't wear a diamond ring
I don't even have a song to sing
All I know is
La la la la la la la la la means
I love you
Oh, baby, please now
La la la la la la la la la means
I love you
If I ever saw a girl
That I needed in this world
You are the one for me
(One for me)
Let me hold you in my arms
Girl, and thrill you with my charms
I'm sure you will see
(You will see)
The things I am sayin' are true
And the way I explain them to you
Listen to me
La la la la la la la la la means
I love you
Ooh, baby
La la la la la la la la la means
I love you
The things I am sayin' are true
And the way I explain them to you,
Yes to you
Listen to me
La la la la la la la la la means
I love you
Oh, you'll have to understand now
La la la la la la la la la means
I love you
Come on and take my hand

Barbara Mason - Yes, I'm Ready (1965)

I don't even know how to love you
Just the way you want me to
But I'm ready (ready) to learn (to learn)
Yes, I'm ready (ready) to learn (to learn)
To fall in love, to fall in love, to fall in love with you
I don't even know how to hold your hand
Just to make you understand
But I'm ready (ready) to learn (to learn)
Yes, I'm ready (ready) to learn (to learn)
To hold your hand, make you understand
To hold your hand right now
I don't even know how to kiss your lips (kiss your lips)
At a moment like this
But I'm going to learn how to do
All the things you want me to
(Are you ready?) Yes, I'm ready
(Are you ready?) Yes, I'm ready
To fall in love, to fall in love, to fall in love right now
Yes, I'm ready
(Are you ready?) Yes, I'm ready
(To kiss me?) Yes, I'm ready
(To love me?)
To kiss you, love you, and hug you
Baby, I'm ready

Gene Ammons--"Canadian Sunset"

 

Cold Cold World--Murf Gorlix

 

I've tried for a long time but I think I can't win
I'd do it all better if I could do it a-gain
Wherever I'm going it's the same place I been
Ain't it a cold, cold world
Outside it was hot but inside I am cold
The eyes of the young met the eyes of the old
And what they were thinking I'll never be told
Ain't it a cold, cold world
Then an old lady asked me bout this new daylight time
I said it don't matter and she said I don't mind
Then the bus driver said you still owe me a dime
Ain't it a cold, cold world
I can't get no job and I can't get no rest
I started out east and I ended up west
And I'm so glad to be here I'm sure, I would guess
Ain't it a cold, cold world
I might have to leave you, I think's what she said
Wish I could sleep 'stead of tossing in bed
And I find myself thinking I'd be better off dead
Ain't it a cold, cold world
Ain't it a cold, cold world

DOPE LEMON - Marinade

 

She got attacked by a pack of dogs
But she said, "It's okay
I got some wilderness skills beneath my belt"
She said she used to be a part of a Scout team
They nearly made her leader one time
But they didn't have enough thread to sew the patches on
And she said, "Do you know how you heard about that family that burnt down in that house?"
Well, that was hers
She said it was just some hoax that she made up
To watch people cry
Yeah, she whispered to me softly
Well, do you want me
Just how I am?
Do you need me
Where I stand?
Let's go steady
Let's make a plan
Marinade on that for a while
Yeah
She wanted to die by a river
She wanted the tide to come up and drag her away
So that when she's dreamin'
She can watch the tree line fall away
She used to draw rainbow faces in the sand
But the rainbow made the face sad
Had bits of foam coming out the bottom of its mouth
It's kinda funny that way
Oh, do you want me
How I am?
Do you need me
Oh, where I stand?
Let's go steady
Let's make a plan
Marinade on that for a little while
Yeah

The War On Drugs - "Red Eyes" (Official Audio)

Come and see
Where I witness everything
On my knees
Beat it down to get to my soul
Against my will
Anyone can tell it's you coming
Baby don't mind
Leave it on the line, leave it hanging on the rail
Come and ride away
It's easier to stick to the old
Surrounded by the night
Surrounded by the night and you don't give in
But you abuse my faith
Lose it every time, but I don't know where
You're on my side again
So ride the heat wherever it goes
I'll be the one to care
You're all I've got, wait
Don't wanna let the dark night cover my soul
Well, you can see it through the darkness coming my way
Well, we won't get lost inside it all again
Oh, my mind
No one sees me, I'm out here waiting
They don't mind that I'm here, I hear
Throw the bad away, and your mind against it
I would keep you here, but I can't
Oh, I'll talk to you when I make my way back
I don't see it over there where I come from, yeah
Lost and you're hurt again
The easy way to cover my sin
Don't want another dark time to think to myself
We won't get lost inside it all, you're on my way
Well, I can see it in the darkness combing my mind
Well, we can hear the voices war inside
Yeah, and you won't get lost inside it all
You're on my way

The Shins - New Slang (Live On Letterman)

 Things like this always bring me to my knees. . . and tears to my eyes.

Gold teeth and a curse for this town
Were all in my mouth
Only I don't know how they got out, dear
Turn me back into the pet
I was when we met
I was happier then with no mindset
And if you took to me like a
Gull takes to the wind
Well, I'd've jumped from my trees
And I'd've danced like the king of the eyesores
And the rest of our lives would've fared well
New slang when you notice the stripes
The dirt in your fries
Hope it's right when you die, old and bony
Dawn breaks like a bull through the hall
Never should have called
But my head's to the wall and I'm lonely
And if you took to me like a
Gull takes to the wind
Well, I'd've jumped from my trees
And I'd've danced like the king of the eyesores
And the rest of our lives would've fared well
Godspeed, all the bakers at dawn
May they all cut their thumbs
And bleed into their buns 'til they melt away
I'm looking in on the good life
I might be doomed never to find
Without a trust, a flaming field
Am I too dumb to refine?
And if you took to me like
Well, I'd've danced like the queen of the eyesores
And the rest of our lives would've fared well

Farewell Angelina · Rita Hosking

 

Farewell, Angelina
The bells of the crown
Are being stolen by bandits
I must follow the sound
The triangle tingles
And the trumpets play slow
But farewell, Angelina
The sky is on fire
And I must go
There's no need for anger
There's no need for blame
There's nothing to prove
Everything's still the same
Just a table standing empty
By the edge of the sea
Means farewell, Angelina
The sky is trembling
And I must leave
The jack and queen
Have forsaked the courtyard
52 gypsies
Now file past the guards
In the space where the deuce
And the ace once ran wild
Farewell, Angelina
The sky is falling
I'll see you in a while
See the cross-eyed pirates sitting
Perched in the sun
Shooting tin cans
With a sawed-off shotgun
And the neighbors, they clap
And they cheer with each blast
But farewell, Angelina
The sky's changing color
And I must leave fast
King Kong, little elves
On the rooftop they dance
Valentino-type tangos
While the make-up man's hands
Shut the eyes of the dead
Not to embarrass anyone
But farewell, Angelina
The sky is embarrassed
And I must be gone
The machine guns are roaring
And the puppets heave rocks
And fiends nail time bombs
To the hands of the clocks
Call me any name you like
I will never deny it
But farewell, Angelina
The sky is erupting
I must go where it's quiet

Bruce Springsteen - My Beautiful Reward

 Well. . . they can't all be obscure. . . but when was the last time you listened to this?

Well I sought gold and diamond rings
My own drug to ease the pain that living brings
Walked from the mountain to the valley floor
Searching for my beautiful reward
Searching for my beautiful reward
From a house on a hill a sacred light shines
I walk through these rooms but none of them are mine
Down empty hallways I went from door to door
Searching for my beautiful reward
Searching for my beautiful reward
Well your hair shone in the sun
I was so high I was the lucky one
Then I came crashing down like a drunk on a barroom floor
Searching for my beautiful reward
Searching for my beautiful reward
Tonight I can feel the cold wind at my back
I'm flying high over gray fields my feathers long and black
Down along the river's silent edge I soar
Searching for my beautiful reward
Searching for my beautiful reward
Searching for my beautiful reward
Searching for my beautiful reward

Haley Bonar - Drinking Again

 

My old friendHe don't think or feel a thing
He asks me to wear his ring
But I can't sit down and talk to walls again
Cos they break down
As soon as you leave town
That's when another one comes around
And builds another wall around you

But I been thinking about it
I been drinking again
And it don't help that much
But I don't care
So I just keep sipping the red wine
As I pass the time till I see your face again

I'm tuckered out
So sick and tired of men
But every now and then
I just sing a song and another comes along
And thinks he's quite a hit
But I can't settle down for shit
I think I'm going home to see my ma again

And I been thinking about it
I been drinking again
And it don't help that much
But I don't care
So I just keep sipping the red wine
As I pass the time till I see your face again

The Verve - Bitter Sweet Symphony (Official Music Video)

 Of course. . . I mean. . . you've heard it, but. . . .  I think The Verve nailed it.  Simply.  That song lifts me to the heights and sinks me to the depths.  I love life so deeply and despair all in one instant.  There are no guardrails, no boundaries.  I pity and envy those who never realize that.  

I have so much to be thankful for. . . and then. . . there is all the rest.

'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, that's life
Tryna make ends meet, you're a slave to money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places where all the veins meet, yeah
No change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
But I'm a million different people
From one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no
(Have you ever been down?)
Well, I've never prayed but tonight I'm on my knees, yeah
I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah
I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now
But the airwaves are clean and there's nobody singin' to me now
No change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
And I'm a million different people
From one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no
(Have you ever been down?)
I can't change, oh, no
I can't change, oh
'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, that's life
Tryna make ends meet, tryna find somebody then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places where all the veins meet, yeah
You know I can change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
And I'm a million different people
From one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no,
I can't change my mold, no, no, no, no
It's just sex and violence, melody and silence
It's just sex and violence, melody and silence
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
Been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Have you ever been down?
Have you ever been down?
Have you ever been down?

Out Into the Empty--Boy With a Fish

 

Dean Martin--Sway With Me

 

When marimba rhythms start to play
Dance with me, make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close, sway me more
Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me, sway with ease
When we dance you have a way with me
Stay with me, sway with me
Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have the magic technique
When we sway I go weak
I can hear the sounds of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now
Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have the magic technique
When we sway I go weak
I can hear the sounds of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now
You know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now

Yo La Tengo - Dreaming

 

Dreaming, dreaming
Here I am dreaming again
Dreaming, dreaming
I'm in a deep dream again
Sleeping, sleeping
It's time for me to wake up

Oh no matter how I dream, it always makes me cry
If you them well then you'll know what I mean
For that is a world where things aren't what they seem
Oh no matter how I dream, it always makes me cry

Dreaming, dreaming
Here I am dreaming again
Dreaming, dreaming
Though you make my dreams come true
Sleeping, sleeping
It's time for me to wake up

Oh no matter how I dream, it always makes me cry
If you live in them well then you'll know what I mean
For that is a world where things aren't what they seem
Oh no mater how I dream, it always makes me cry

Dreaming, dreaming
Here I am dreaming again
Dreaming, dreaming
I'm in a deep dream again
Sleeping, sleeping
It's time for me to wake up

Malakoff Kowalski - How I Think Of You (Official Video)

 

I sing to tell you how I think of you
That when I go to sleep, I think of you
And after waking up, I think of you
No matter what I do, I think of you
And every single day, I think of you
And everyone I see, I think of you
And as I play this song, I think of you
No matter what I do I think of you.
Have you seen her, that girl?
I want to go home
That girl, where is she now?
I wanna tell you how, I think of you
In every little thing, I think of you
And as you hear this song, I think of you
No matter what I do, I think of you
Have you seen her, that girl?
I want to go home
That girl, where is she now?
Have you seen her, that girl?
I want to go home
That girl, where is she now?
Du du du du du, du du, du du
Du du du du du, du du, du du
Du du du du du, du du, du du
No matter what I do, I think of you,
Du du du du du, du du, du du
Du du du du du, du du, du du

Fly Me to the Moon · Astrud Gilberto

 

Fly me to the moon
Let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like on
A-Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, baby, kiss me
Fill my heart with song and let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you
Fill my heart with song
Let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for, all I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words
In other words
I love you

Stayin’ Alive (Bee Gees)- Acoustic Cove

Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk
I'm a woman's man, no time to talk
Music loud and women warm, I've been kicked around
Since I was born
And now it's alright, it's okay
And you may look the other way
We can try to understand
The New York Times' effect on man
Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother
You're stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin'
And we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive
Well now, I get low and I get high
And if I can't get either, I really try
Got the wings of Heaven on my shoes
I'm a dancin' man and I just can't lose
You know it's alright, it's okay
I'll live to see another day
We can try to understand
The New York Times' effect on man
Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother
You're stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin'
And we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive (ohh)
Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me
Somebody help me, yeah
Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me, yeah
I'm stayin' alive
Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk
I'm a woman's man, no time to talk
Music loud and women warm
I've been kicked around since I was born
And now it's all right, it's okay
And you may look the other way
We can try to understand
The New York Times' effect on man
Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother
You're stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin'
And we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive
Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me
Somebody help me, yeah
Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me, yeah
I'm stayin' alive
Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me
Somebody help me, yeah (ah, ah, ah)
Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me, yeah
I'm stayin' alive
Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me
Somebody help me, yeah (ah, ah, ah, ay)
Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me, yeah
I'm stayin' alive
Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me
Somebody help me, yeah (ohh)
Life goin' nowhere, somebody help me, yeah
I'm stayin' alive

Saint Valentine · Gregory Alan Isakov

 

Well, Grace she's gone, she's a half-written poem
She went out for cigarettes and never came home
And I swallowed the sun and screamed and wailed
Straight down to the dirt so I could find her trail
Spread out across the Great Divide
Well, I just came to talk, Saint Valentine
I never pictured you living here with the rats and the vines
Ain't that my old heart hanging out on your lines
You're all fucked up, Saint Valentine
Now I circle the bars on the promenade
While the girls in the glass, they're just throwing me shade
And I'm saving my coins up for Jingling Jane
She's out plucking strings in the pouring rain
See I'm all crooked feet, Saint Valentine
I've circled this map till it caught on fire
Now Grace she's left you just skin and bone
Well, you hang up your hat, but you can't call it home
You've tried and you've tried, but you can't call it home
You're the loneliest one, Saint Valentine
You're the loneliest one, Saint Valentine
You're all fucked up, Saint Valentine

Vetiver - Maureen

 

If you need, Maureen, I'll recount you all the ways that I mean to be true.
Though my eyes wonder why, my heart keeps inside the reasons why I'm free with you.
Nobody wants to see trouble where none should be.
My Maureen, don't dream that I could ever be leaving you.
You were saved by doubt and you needed an out to help you get through the day
I may offer you sense but it's love you miss and my talking just gets in the way.
Nobody wants to hear farewells ring in their ear.
My Maureen, don't dream that I could ever be leaving you.
Nobody wants to hear farewells ring in their ear.
My Maureen, don't dream that I could ever be leaving you.

To the Ghosts Who Write History Books · The Low Anthem

 

To them ghosts that write history books
To them ghosts that write songs
Everyone asks would you write one about me
To them ghosts in the train yard
All them ghosts in my drink
Your money's no good here just write one about me
And when you go, where the winds are strong
When you go where flowers bend
Please take along all the best of my luck and come back
Unchanged
Your demons all tamed
Your flowers uncut
And when you go where the winds are strong
Where soldiers carve their stones
Please take along all the best of my luck and come back
Unchanged
Your demons all tamed
Your flowers uncut
To them ghosts that write history books
To them ghosts that write songs
Everyone asks would you write one about me
To them ghosts in the train yard
All them ghosts in my drink
Your money's no good here just write one about me

Emmylou Harris---Born to Run

 

Well, I never did crawl and I never did toe the line
No man is master to me, I ain't that kind
I just put on my travelin' shoes
If you wanna win, you just can't lose the time
Or stay behind
Well, I was born to run
To get ahead of the rest
And all that I wanted was to be the best
Just to feel free and be someone
I was born to be fast, I was born to run
Well I take the chances, sometimes I made mistakes
But you don't get nothin' unless you take the breaks
Livin' as dangerous as dynamite
Sure it makes you feel nervous but it makes you feel alright
Makes you feel alright
Well, I was born to run
To get ahead of the rest
And all that I wanted was to be the best
Just to feel free and be someone
I was born to be fast, I was born to run
Nobody gonna make me do the things their way
By the time you figure it out, it's yesterday
Well, it comes to he who waits, I'm told
But I don't need it when I'm old and gray
Yeah, I want it today
Well, I was born to run
To get ahead of the rest
And all that I wanted was to be the best
Just to feel free and be someone
I was born to be fast I was born to run
I was born to run
To get ahead of the rest
And all that I wanted was to be the best
Just to feel free and be someone
I was born to be fast I was born to run

Various Stages · Great Lake Swimmers

 

I have seen you in various stages of undress.
I have seen you through various states of madness.
I have seen your refractions and I did not recognize you.
I have seen you in various states of madness.
How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?
How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?
I am sorry I had nothing left for you.
My mind was willing and my spirit was strong.
My lips were tired and tightened from singing along.
My eyelids are heavy as anchors thrown over.
How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?
How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?
I have seen you in the eyes of a hundred thousand other stranger faces.
I have seen you in unlikely and unfamiliar places.
I have seen you be reckless in matters of love.
I have seen by degrees the boiling point come and go.
How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?
How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?
What lies at the end of this long and dark and twisted road?
How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?
I have seen you in various stages of undress.
I have seen you through various states of madness.

Moonlight In Vermont · The Four Freshmen

Pennies in a stream
Falling leaves a sycamore
Moonlight in Vermont
Gentle finger waves
Ski trails down a mountain side
Snowlight in Vermont

Telegraph cables, how they sing down the highway
As they travel each bend in the road
And when people meet, in this romantic setting
They're so hypnotized be the lovely

Evening summer breeze
Sweet warblings of the meadowlark
Moonlight in Vermont

Oakley Hall- Free Radicals Lament

 

I have a simple sadness, Hasn't got a name. Saw two years of our lives Down a dirty drain. One relief in freedom, So happy and so strange. Walking in the wild wind, Creature of ever-constant change. You sang songs of devotion, Out of the side of your mouth. I told you that I loved them, But tried to spit them out. It's like what this writer told me, Between sips of wine, "Sometimes you got a perfect story, Most times just a bunch of lines." Our friends would hate and judge us, What did they ever know? You said there'd be no love lost (?), After the after-glow. What starts like a supernova, Ends up like a drizzling rain. You're so happy that it's over, But isn't it a crying shame? I have a simple sadness, Hasn't got a name. Saw two years of our lives Down a dirty drain. Won relief in freedom, So happy and so strange, Walking in the wild wind, Creature of ever-constant change.

Muddy Waters Forty Days and Forty Nights

 

Forty days and forty nights
Since my baby left this town
Sunshinin' all day long
But the rain keep comin' down
She's my life I need her so
Why she left I just don't know
Forty days and forty nights
Since I set right down and cried
Keep rainin' all the time
But the river is runnin' dry
Lord help me it just ain't right
I love that girl with all-a my might
Forty days and forty nights
Since my baby broke my heart
Searchin' for her in a while
Like a blind man in the dark
Love can make a poor man rich
Or break his heart I don't know which
Forty days and forty nights
Like a ship out on the sea
Prayin' for her each night
That she would come back-a home to me
Life is love and love is right
I hope she come back home tonight

Django Reinhardt Sultan Of Swing Full Album

 

All the Roadrunning · Mark Knopfler · Emmylou Harris

A million miles our vagabond heels
Clocked up beneath the clouds
They're counting down to show time
When we do it for real with the crowds
Air miles are owing
But they don't come for free
And they don't give you any for pain
But if it's all for nothing
All the roadrunning's
Been in vain
The rimshots come down like cannon fire
And thunder off the wall
There's a man in every corner
And each one is giving his all
This is my piper
This is my drum
So you never will hear me complain
And if it's all for nothing
All the roadrunning's
Been in vain
All the roadrunning
All the roadrunning
Well if you're inclined
To go up on the wall
It can only be fast and high
And those who don't like the danger
Soon find something different to try
When there's only a ringin' in your ears
And an echo down memory lane
But if it's all for nothing
All the roadrunning's
Been in vain
All the roadrunning, all the roadrunning
All the roadrunning, all the roadrunning
The show's packing up
I sit and watch the convoy
Leaving town
There's no pretending I'm not a fool
For riding around and around
Like the pictures you keep of your old wall of death
You showed me one time on the plane
But if it's all for nothing
All the roadrunning's
Been in vain
A million miles of vagabond sky
Clocked up above the clouds
I'm still your man for the roaming
For as long as there's roamin' allowed
There'll be a rider
And there'll be a wall
As long as the dreamer remains
And if it's all for nothing
All the roadrunning's
Been in vain
All the roadrunning, all the roadrunning
All the roadrunning, all the roadrunning
All the roadrunning, all the roadrunning
All the roadrunning, all the roadrunning

Pig In A Pen · Ralph Stanley & Friends

 

I got a pig, home in a pen
Corn to feed him on
All I need is a pretty little girl
To feed him when I'm gone
Dark clouds are rising
Sure sign of rain
Get your old gray bonnet on
Sweet little Liza Jane
I got a pig, home in a pen
Corn to feed him on
All I need is a pretty little girl
To feed him when I'm gone
Bake 'em biscuits, baby
Bake 'em good and brown
When you get them biscuits baked
We're Alabama bound
I got a pig, home in a pen
Corn to feed him on
All I need is a pretty little girl
To feed him when I'm gone
Goin' on a mountain
To sow a little cane
Raise a barrel of Sorghum
Sweet little Liza Jane
I got a pig, home in a pen
Corn to feed him on
All I need is a pretty little girl
To feed him when I'm gone
I got a pig, home in a pen
Corn to feed him on
All I need is a pretty little girl
To feed him when I'm gone

Lola Albright - How High the Moon

 

Somewhere there's music
How faint the tune
Somewhere there's heaven
How high the moon
There is no moon above
When love is far away too
Till it comes true
That you love me as I love you
Somewhere there's music
It's where you are
Somewhere there's heaven
How near, how far
The darkest night would shine
If you would come to me soon
Until you will, how still my heart
How high the moon
'How high the moon'
Is the name of the song
How high the moon
Though the words may be wrong
We're singing it because you ask for it
So we're singing it just for you
How high the moon
Does it touch the stars
How high the moon
Does it reach out to Mars
Though the words may be wrong to the song
We're asking a high, high, high, high
High is the moon
Though the words may be wrong to the song
We're ought to make high, high, high, high
High is the moon

Lola Albright - I've Got a Crush on You

 

How glad the many millions of Annabelles and Lillians
Would be to capture me
But you had such persistence, you wore down my resistance
I fell and it was swell
I'm your big and brave and handsome Romeo
How I won you I shall never never know
It's not that you're attractive
But, oh, my heart grew active
When you came into view
I've got a crush on you, sweetie pie
All the day and night-time hear me sigh
I never had the least notion
That I could fall with so much emotion
Could you coo, could you care
For a cunning cottage that we could share
The world will pardon my mush
'Cause I have got a crush, my baby on you

A Chance Counsel · Richard Buckner

 

Another washout, brake lights showing
Probably gonna slow down, no way of knowing
Let's hear the outline
I see where it's going
I know where it came from
A bubble in the moment

Someone'll find out
Finishing the time
Crashing around
And one night you'll try it
Is something at stake?

Seen off safely, but I could've used
A chance at maybe, a time or two
One for the distance
And speaking of the roar
Stopping just to listen
At her number on the door

Isn't something calling
Coming as you go?
Never and always
And missing the throw?
With hours on the fade

It wasn't where you found it
Returning late again
Waking dressed from before
In some week-long bed
Leave it all still made

Fall to a weak floor
And let it lay
Think of somebody
Too far away
Get something easy
Lost in the fuel?
Come back tomorrow
With a new excuse

Sparklers are passing
To the corners of the night
"I feel the heat, and they move on glowing
But I can pull away"

No More Parades · Son Volt

 

Don't know if your carin' truth is worth tearin'
Though we're miles apart
Front door leavin's the way I've been feelin'
Twenty days overboard

That's the way the hinge turns, just half way round
Believe it all first, finally flickers out
No mood anymore, hold up, hammer down the stake
No more parades

Got to know a friend with a think tank
And a farm and you couldn't ask for better
Works on dreams inside of her schemes
Lives like the words in a song

That's the way the hinge turns, just half way round
Believe it all first, finally flickers out
No mood anymore, hold up, hammer down the stake
No more parades

A pesticide moon hangs cold coffee
And tears flowin' out of the brain
Shoulda caught the bus, shoulda pulled in line
Shoulda made up for that down time

That's the way the hinge turns, just half way round
Believe it all first, finally flickers out
No mood anymore, hold up, hammer down the stake
No more parades

Wakin On A Pretty Day · Kurt Vile

 

Wakin' in the dawn of day
I gotta think about what I wanna say
Phone ringing off the shelf
I guess it wanted to kill himself
Wakin' on a pretty day
Don't know why I ever go away
It's hard to explain
My love, in this daze
You can say I've been most all around
But honey I ain't goin' nowhere
Don't worry 'bout a thing
It's only dying
I live along a straight line
Nothing always comes to mind
To be frank, I'm fried
But I don't mind
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Been diggin'
Layin' low, low, low
I'm diggin'
Layin' low, low, low
Dig, dig in...
To these lives that we are living
Living low, lackadaisically so
Risin' at the crack of dawn
I gotta think about what wisecrack
I'm gonna drop along the way today
Phone ringing off the shelf
I guess somebody got something they
Really wanna prove to us today
Yeah, I'm waking on a pretty day
Floating in place
No use sayin' nothin'
To explain it to my loved ones...
Today
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Playboy's Penthouse Season 1 Episode 1

 

Portastatic - Truckstop Cassettes

Shot from the green cannon of late spring
The map on your lap unfolding
Some states don't rate even a blur
Toothpaste across your reflection in muddy water

We had truckstop cassettes of Isaac Hayes and Patsy Cline
Sang "Strange" in the desert every night at nine
Purple light on your face in the canyon at dusk
I thought I might as well go blind
I thought I might as well go blind

But I thought my eyes had seen it all
I thought my eyes had seen it all
There may lie beauty up ahead that our language can't capture it all
But I thought my eyes had seen it all

Slept all night in the dry scrub
You crawled from the thicket with a new love
Sleep in our eyes and I pulled a bug off your back
You said "Leave me alone, just let nature attack us"

We had truckstop cassettes of Smokey Robinson and Kinks
The tape hit the player just as we hit "Cruiser's Creek"
Our time was turning dusty yellow but the sun on your forehead shone pink
I thought the worst was over, just goes to show I shouldn't think


But I thought my eyes had seen it all
I thought my eyes had seen it all
There may be desolation down the road and just down this hall but
I thought my eyes had seen it all

The tape ate the player ate the tape ate me
The tape ate the player ate the tape ate me
The tape ate the player ate the tape ate me

I promised you at best
A sparkling mirage at worst
A sea to another shining sea
The tape ate the player ate the tape ate me

Ravens & Crows - Dehlia Low

 

When I went to show my color
I carried a heavy load
And when I cried to my mother
She said it's all just ravens and crows
Baby, it's all just ravens and crows

When I saw that ringing hammer
Well it did not shine like gold
Whether it's coal, rock or steel it doesn't matter
It's all just ravens and crows
Hey, hey it's all just ravens and crows

Now the sands from the storms are uniting
At the angle of repose
Them boys put down their guns and quit fighting
Cause it's all just ravens and crows
Brother it's all just ravens and crows

It's a red, red wine in the pulpit
Corn whiskey when I'm low
Well it's just water when I'm hard up lord
And it's all just ravens and crows
Darlin' it's all just ravens and crows

Eleni Mandell - Dreamboat

 

Dreamboat, out to sea
Land lovers, he's leaving me
Someday when the sky lies awake
We'll be together in the city again

Dreamboat, sailing away
Land lovers, hopeless and gray
Someday when the tide is low
You and me, baby
We'll rock back and forth on the waves

Hang on tight
There's trouble below
The blackest blue
We're going to go

To the bottom
Of water so sorry I cried
Looking back up
Are we ocean or sky?

Dreamboat, motoring slow
Land lovers, wave from the shore
Someday when the mountains escape
Swimming for living, we'll drown in our fate

Hang on tight
There's trouble below
The blackest blue
We're going to go

To the bottom
Of water so sorry I cried
Looking back up
Are we ocean or sky?

Nouvelle Vague - The Killing Moon (Full Track)

 

Under blue moon I saw you
So soon you'll take me
Up in your arms
Too late to beg you or cancel it
Though I know it must be the killing time
Unwillingly mine
Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
You must wait until
You give yourself to him
In starlit nights I saw you
So cruelly you kissed me
Your lips a magic world
Your sky all hung with jewels
The killing moon
Will come too soon
Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
You must wait until
You give yourself to him
Under blue moon I saw you
So soon you'll take me
Up in your arms
Too late to beg you or cancel it
Though I know it must be the killing time
Unwillingly mine
Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
You must wait until
You give yourself to him

Drive That Devil Out · Rod Picott and Amanda Shires

 

Lua - Conor Oberst and Gillian Welch

 

I know that it is freezing but I think we have to walk
I keep waving at the taxis; they keep turning their
Lights off
But Julie knows a party at some actor's west side loft
Supplies are endless in the evening; by the morning
They'll be gone.
When everything gets lonely I can be my own best friend
I'll grab a coffee and the paper; have my own
Conversations
With the sidewalk and the pigeons and my window
Reflection
The mask I polish in the evening, by the morning looks
Like shit.
I know you have a heavy heart; I can feel it when we
Kiss
So many men much stronger than me have thrown their
Backs out trying to lift it
But me I'm not gamble you can count on me to split
The love I sell you in the evening, by the morning
Won't exist.
You're looking skinny like a model with your eyes all
Painted black
You just keep going to the bathroom always say you'll
Be right back
Well it takes one to know one, kid, I think you've got
It bad
But what's so easy in the evening, by the morning is
Such a drag.
I've got a flask inside my pocket we can share it on
The train
If you promise to stay conscious I will try and do the
Same
We might die from medication, but we sure killed all
The pain
But what was normally in the evening, by the morning
Seems insane.
And I'm not sure what the trouble was that started all
Of this
The reasons have run away but the feeling never did
It's not something I would recommend, but it is one way
To live
Cause what is simple in the moonlight, by the morning
Never is
What's so simple in the moonlight, by the morning is so
Complicated.
What's so simple in the moonlight, so simple in the
Moonlight

Gregory Alan Isakov - San Luis

 

Weightlessness, no gravity
Were we somewhere in-between?
I'm a ghost of you, you're a ghost of me
A bird's eye view of San Luis
Oh, highway boys all sleeping in
With their dirty mouths and broken strings
Oh, their eyes are shining like the sea
For you, the queen of San Luis
I'm a ghost of you, you're a ghost of me
A bird's eye view of San Luis
Cutting through the avenues
I'd always find my way to you
Beside the hook, the hammer lies
Fumbling round in the smoke
Spending time chasing ghosts
Hold me down, hold me down, child
Hold me down, hold me down, child
California called you queen
With your golden hair and magazine
Were you somewhere in-between?
Fast asleep, a flying dream
I'm a ghost of you, you're a ghost of me
A bird's eye view of San Luis
I'm a ghost of you, you're a ghost of me
A bird's eye view of San Luis
I'm a ghost of you, you're a ghost of me
A bird's eye view of San Luis
I'm a ghost of you, you're a ghost of me
A bird's eye view of San Luis

Nicolai Dunger : "Dr. Zhivago's Train"

 

Hold on, when the train is moving
through the sound of change
And tell those boys back in town
that there will be a call
Oooo train is comin' on
Oooo train is comin' on
A train is comin' your way
and it sounds like,
just like a chase straight through the season
or why not through your heart
It makes us see the strengh that surrounds us in all
our failures
Just like the train in the film Doctor Zhivago
Oooo train is comin' on
Oooo train is comin' on
A train is comin' your way
and it sounds like,
just like a chade straight through the season
And without a reason, it just blows away
'cause you like the sound of it
It sounds like this....

A secret treat for those who peruse the station 😀.

Kathleen Edwards - Only Love

 

When you were young
And on your own
How did it feel to be alone?
I was always thinking of games
That I was playing
Trying to make the best of my time
But only love can break your heart
Try to be sure right from the start
Yes, only love can break your heart
What if your world should fall apart?
I have a friend I've never seen
He hides his head inside a dream
Someone should call him and see
If he can come out
Try to lose the down that he's found
But only love can break your heart
Try to be sure right from the start
Yes, only love can break your heart
What if your world should fall apart?
I have a friend I've never seen
He hides his head inside a dream
Yes, only love can break your heart
Yes, only love can break your heart
Yes, only love can break your heart
Yes, only love can break your heart
Yes, only love can break your heart

Wrap you in my warm and tender love, yeah

Wonderful · Josh Rouse

 

Oftentimes I sit and wonder
As I gaze out over yonder
I'm so crazy about you
So crazy and it's true
I think you're wonderful
Don't change
I think you're wonderful
Don't change your way
I think you're wonderful
Don't change your way at all
It is the morning, love, you have found me
Reading the paper with my coffee
And before you must go
There's one thing you should know
I think you're wonderful
Don't change
I think you're wonderful
I think you're wonderful
I think you're wonderful
Don't change at all
At all
At all

Cande y Paulo - The Thrill Is Gone

 

Various Stages · Great Lake Swimmers

 

I have seen you in various stages of undress
I have seen you through various states of madness
I have seen your refractions and I did not recognize you
I have seen you in various states of madness

How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?
How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?

I am sorry I had nothing left for you
My mind was willing and my spirit was strong
My lips were tired and tightened from singing along
My eyelids are heavy as anchors thrown over

How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?
How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?

I have seen you in the eyes of a hundred thousand other stranger faces
I have seen you in unlikely and unfamiliar places
I have seen you be reckless in matters of love
I have seen by degrees the boiling point come and go

How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?
How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?
What lies at the end of this long and dark and twisted road?
How high your highest of heights? How low are your lows?

Happy When I'm Gone · Sera Cahoone

 

All I have from it now is a waste of time
Pull those shades down tight
She’s got more than I ever had

All there is from it now, she’s got more than I ever had
And I know you’ll be happy when I’m gone
‘Cause your life is just one regret
Shiverin’, shake up all night, you said
I’m already over my head

Oh this drive’s taking me hours, she’s got more than I ever had
And I know you’ll be happy when I’m gone
‘Cause your life is just one regret
Shivеrin’, shake up all night, but you ain’t seen nothing yet
I’m already ovеr my head

For Shame of Doing Wrong · Ida

 

It seems like a lifetime since I saw you
Lover lover I've been away too long
When I see lovers holding hands and sighing
I hang my head for shame of doing wrong

Bus wheels spinning, song birds singing break my heart
Take me back to old remembered days
Remind me of the times we spent together
Times before we went our separate ways

I wish I was a fool for you again
I wish I was a fool for you again
I wish I was a fool for you again

I'm sorry for the things I've said, the things I've done
I'm sorry for the restless thief I've been
Please don't make me pay for my deceiving heart
Just turn up your lamp and let me in

I wish I was a fool for you again
I wish I was a fool for you again
I wish I was a fool for you again
I wish I was a fool for you again
I wish I was a fool for you again
I wish I was a fool for you again
I wish I was a fool for you again
I wish I was a fool for you again
I wish I was a fool for you again
I wish I was a fool for you again
I wish I was a fool for you again
