about

Apologies to Doug Davis for stealing - unintentionally - the verse and vibe from his week 3 submission, Stay By Me.

lyrics

We were broke and hungry back before it was in style
We’d smoke em when we had em, just float away for a while
We thought we were clever, too clever to find any peace
We were desperate together, desperate for some kind of release

I was listening to the sirens echoing down the street
In the middle of the night faded from the Memphis heat
I could feel it coming I could feel you slipping away
There was something in the water, there was something in the way

If only I’d known better, I’d have played it to the letter
I’d have stayed until confetti filled the sky
If only I’d tried harder to listen to my heart
I’d have never let you stray from my side

Talking on the front porch back in your hometown
Every word I said just seemed to let you further down
You told me that you loved me but I could never make you whole
Were you trying to surrender or were you trying to take control

If only I’d known better, I’d have played it to the letter
I’d have stayed until confetti filled the sky
If only I’d tried harder to listen to my heart
I’d have never let you stray from my side

So how are things in Glocca Morra?
Do all your friends still just bore ya?
Are you awake at two in the morning,
Thinking how the time goes by without a warning?

(guitar)

If only I’d known better, I’d have played it to the letter
I’d have stayed until confetti filled the sky
If only I’d tried harder to listen to my heart
I’d have never let you stray from my side
