I wrote this song when I lived in Belgium (in 2005/6), but I never recorded it because I thought it would take too long. Well, it did take most of the day, but here's a rough draft.
Again..it's all Garage Band, so only the built in mic...sorry! I also wish I sounded more like Gwen Stefani...le sigh
also..really sorry I put autoplay=false...but it seems to be having a bad day...
Yeah....that's dumb...here's a link

So you're back
With a smile upon your face
You're still searching
For the spoils from the race
And you're looking
Half-way decent now-a-days
It's a shame
I only knew your darker phase
There's a smile
On the corners of your lips
And you think
You'll charm my hands right off my hips
So come in
And we can open up some wine
And let's talk
About the passages of time
And oh là là
Let's go sit 'round the table
And I'll try not to say
That I just don't think you're able
To love and be loved
And to drink from the chalice
Without choking on the lye
Without shifting the balast
|
You should know
From the fire in my eyes
That's it's over
No use waiting til sunrise
It was good
But every good thing has it's end
Drain your glass
And I'll toast to you my friend
And oh là là
Let's go sit 'round the table
And I'll try not to say
That I just don't think you're able
To love and be loved
And to drink from the chalice
Without choking on the lye
Without shifting the balast
And oh là là
Let's go sit 'round the table
And I'll try not to say
That I just don't think you're able
To love and be loved
And to drink from the chalice
Without choking on the lye
Without shifting the balast
