Lyrical Response

[SinceThe70s]

I recall once upon a time
Living was so easy and I felt so fine
But, my, my, my right before my very eyes
Satan came with fire to burn me
Wouldn't listen when they warned me
A dagger in my back while she's calling me honey
Wouldn't stand back, for neither love nor money

[Just Jack]

In your eyes
I see there's something burning inside you
Oh, inside you
In your eyes
I know it hurts to smile but you try to
Oh, you try to

[muppy]

Baby hair with a woman's eyes
I can feel you watching in the night
All alone with me and we're waiting for the sunlight

When I feel cold, you warm me
And when I feel I can't go on, you come and hold me
It's you and me forever

Sara, smile
Oh, won't you smile awhile for me, Sara?
 

[Just Jack]

"What if this does not belong to you,
And all the things you thought were true
Turned out to just be someone else's lies."
Cause baby this does not belong to you,

[WhoTom]

I'm convinced the whole day long
that all I learn is always wrong
and things are true that I forget
but no one taught that to me yet

[Just Jack]

Girl, you know it's true
Ooh, ooh, ooh, I love you

[PastaJoe]

So true, funny how it seems
Always in time, but never in line for dreams
Head over heels when toe to toe
This is the sound of my soul
This is the sound

[SinceThe70s]

This is a sound
The here and the now
You've got to talk to talk to talk to talk
To get it all out

[Just Jack]

Where all those roads lead to an end
Germany am I getting through?
Something's up I need to talk to you.

[Bill from NYC]

Who knows? It's only just out of reach
Down the block, on a beach, under a tree
I got a feelin' there's a miracle due
Gonna come true, comin' to me

 

Could it be? Yes, it could
Somethin's comin', somethin' good, if I can wait
Somethin's comin', I don't know what it is
But it is gonna be great

[muppy]

Be on my side. I'll be on your side, baby.
There is no reason for you to hide.
It's so hard for me staying here all alone,
When you could be taking me for a ride.

She could drag me over the rainbow,
Send me away.

Down by the river,
I shot my baby.
Down by the river.

Dead, ooh, ooh, shot her dead, ooh.

[WhoTom]

Do I smell?

I smell home cooking

It's only the river, it's only the river.

[PastaJoe]

That sends me down to the river
Though I know the river is dry
That sends me down to the river tonight
Ah-yah-yah

[Just Jack]

This land is the land of ours, this river runs red over it
We knee-skinned it you and me, we knee-skinned that river red
And we gathered up our friends, bank the quarry river, swim
We knee-skinned it you and me, underneath the river bed

[The Real Buffalo Joe]

I'm drowning in a whiskey river
Bathing my mem'ried mind in the wetness of its soul
Feeling the amber current flowin' from my mind
And leaving a heart you left so cold

 

Whiskey River, take my mind
Don't let her mem'ry torture me
Whiskey River, don't run dry
You're all I've got, take care of me

[Just Jack]

I had a fight with a bottle of whiskey last night
and the bottle of whiskey won.

[PastaJoe]

I took my troubles down to Madame Ruth
You know that gypsy with the gold-capped tooth
She's got a pad down on Thirty-Fourth and Vine
Sellin' little bottles of Love Potion Number Nine

[The Real Buffalo Joe]

Tonight the bottle let me down
And let your memory come around
The one true friend I thought I'd found
Tonight the bottle let me down

[Bill from NYC]

Blind man running through the light of the night
With an answer in his hand
Come on down to the river of sight
And you can really understand
Red lights flashing through the window in the rain
Can you hear the sirens moan?
White cane lying in a gutter in the lane
If you're walking home alone

 

Don't let it bring you down
It's only castles burning
Find someone who's turning
And you will come around

[muppy]

 

(Turn around)
Every now and then
I get a little bit lonely
And you're never coming round
