Lyrics

Now another song from Sitting Targets, this is called "My Experience"

It was nothing, it came from nowhere at all
It was a casual remark, not a curtain-call
Late for breakfast – black coffee, brandy-laced...
Oh, that look on your face
I'll remember last night;
I'll look out for the signs;
You were caught in the light
Time after time after time after time

It's been my experience
That when the row gets serious
A certain silence will fall...
But I just can't stop it, oh, tell me what's wrong
My heart goеs like a rocket, the feeling's so strong now
No, I just can't stop it, why don't you tеll me what's wrong?
Don't think about it too long

I could argue this another way
But on another day I might have to shout
You keep your mouth shut
But it's too late for that now: oh, the word got out
In translation it's lost
In desperation it's mimed;
Is this Paradise lost
Or Paradise time after time after time after time?

It's been my experience
And when the row gets serious
A certain silence will fall...
But I'll never [?], oh, tell me what's wrong
Never [?], the feeling's so strong now
Never [?], why don't you tell me what's wrong?
And don't go thinking about it too long

Thank you!
Now some older song, uh, ("Necromancer!") like city life past, present and possible future
