Lyrics (From the Streetlights To The Car)

by Mello193   May 10, 2012


The sounds are all shaken
the music were making
sounds a little ska, yeah Jamaican
and with each note inside I awaken
from the streetlights and the car
down to this rusty little bar
I got you in my sights now
I dont wanna know how
just where the timbre will allow us to go
who cares, who knows

just let go of all they say
lets let the sounds pull us away
and to that, I have a song to play
the one i wrote for you before you left

and so I move my fingers down the frets
and just a lower tone id bet
that every single tear filled regret
would awaken tonight inside this song
and i just want to know how long
i have to wait, is it already to late
for us to pack up and leave this town tonight
and just follow the light
from the streetlights and to the car
away from this grungy old bass guitar bar

just let go of all they say
just let the sounds pull you away
and to that, I have another song to play
the one i wrote for you before you left me

and now the chorus burns my very brain
to the cradle without the flame
just tell me are we both to blame
every note just sounds the same
without you, without you I'm lost in the tune
and i know this happened all too soon
from the way you walk the way you talk
from the streetlights to your car
just wanna see if we can ever get so far
from inside this, ugly old grungy bass guitar bar

just let go of they we say
just let the sounds pull us away
and to that, another sad song i have to play
the one i wrote for you before you left me all alone

just let go of they we say
and let the sounds pull us away
and to that, another sad song i have to play
the one i wrote for you, before you left me all alone.
the one i wrote for you, before you left me all alone

    You always have the best rhymes. I'm not good at rhymes, at all lol. You got skill :)

    Again the repetition works great - you definitely need to look into writing more songs.

    Well, it's a well written piece but I feel so dark here. I like the lyrical words and the repetition of some parts constituted the symmetry of whole piece. Awesome and great work:)
