lyrics

There was a time
When we packed up our bags
And headed for the nearest town
Checked in the room
Left no time to unpack
Gravitated to the booming sound

(Pre-Chorus)
This was the highlight of the week
Hoped to see something unique
Something that lodged inside the brain
Something we’d never hear again

(Chorus)
Wondering what rules apply
Skipped the beat, it all passed by
Mourning like American Pie
In the year the music died
Hanging on to what was said
Sitting down to watch instead
Leave before the watershed
In the year the music died

There was a time
When we packed up a guitar
And headed where they’d let us play
Spare set of strings
A pair of microphones
And some songs we’d be on our way

(Pre-Chorus)
This was the highlight of the week
Hoped to keep the gigging streak
Something that lodged inside the brain
Something we’d hope to play again
