SinceThe70s Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 There is no combination of words I could put on the back of a postcard No song that I could sing, but I can try for your heart Our dreams, and they are made out of real things Like a, shoe box of photographs With sepia-toned loving Love is the answer, at least for most of the questions in my heart Like why are we here? And where do we go? And how come it's so hard? It's not always easy and Sometimes life can be deceiving I'll tell you one thing, it's always better when we're together Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real Buffalo Joe Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 This morning I woke up alone, found a note standing by the phone Sayin', "Maybe, maybe I'll be back someday" I wanted to look for you You walked in, I didn't know just what I should do So I sat back down and had a beer and felt sorry for myself Sayin' let her cry if the tears fall down like rain Let her sing if it eases all her pain Let her go, let her walk right out on me And if the sun comes up tomorrow, let her be, let her be No, no, no, no Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralonzo Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 She's faced the hardest times you could imagine And many times her eyes fought back the tears And when her youthful world was about to fall in Each time her slender shoulders bore the weight of all her fears And a sorrow no one hears still rings in midnight silence in her ears Let her cry for she's a lady Let her dream for she's a child Let the rain fall down upon her She's a free and gentle flower growing wild And if by chance I should hold her Let me hold her for a time But if allowed just one possession I would pick her from the garden to be mine Be careful how you touch her, for she'll awaken And sleep's the only freedom that she knows And when you walk into her eyes, you won't believe The way she's always paying for a debt she never owes And a silent wind still blows that only she can hear And so she goes Let her cry for she's a lady Let her dream for she's a child Let the rain fall down upon her She's a free and gentle flower growing wild She's a flower growing wild She's free Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real Buffalo Joe Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 As the snow flies On a cold and gray Chicago mornin' A poor little baby child is born In the ghetto (in the ghetto) And his mama cries 'Cause if there's one thing that she don't need It's another hungry mouth to feed In the ghetto (in the ghetto) People, don't you understand The child needs a helping hand Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day? Take a look at you and me Are we too blind to see Do we simply turn our heads, and look the other way? Well, the world turns And a hungry little boy with a runny nose Plays in the street as the cold wind blows In the ghetto (in the ghetto) And his hunger burns So he starts to roam the streets at night And he learns how to steal, and he learns how to fight In the ghetto (in the ghetto) Then one night in desperation A young man breaks away He buys a gun, steals a car Tries to run, but he don't get far And his mama cries As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man Face down on the street with a gun in his hand In the ghetto (in the ghetto) And as her young man dies On a cold and gray Chicago mornin' Another little baby child is born In the ghetto (in the ghetto) And his mama cries (in the ghetto) (In the ghetto) (Aah-aah) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhoTom Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 1929 when he stepped to the bar, Drank to the dregs of the whiskey jar. 1930 when the wall caved in, He made his way selling red-eye gin. Brown-eyed women and red grenadine, The bottle was dusty but the liquor was clean. Sound of the thunder with the rain pouring down, And it looks like the old man's getting on.
