Bill McGraw: Music

Let the memory play (Rock)

(Bill McGraw)

Bill McGrawe
See ya smile on the floor
Tryin to ignore the people next door
Searchin through your records
But no one's got a record player, anymore

(chorus)
All the heat in the day
All this lack of redemption
Best you've ever played
No one will ever remember
but you
You saved it, no one will ever take it away
you craved it
let the memory play

Hear a knock on my door
know it must be Thys Jackson
Come to share my remorse
Help me to never remember

What it cost
Is what we tried to surrender
Day dreams will fade
a freak show of human behaviour

When I was young
No one cared to defend us
No one ever dreamed of dispair
Energy that was simply blameless

Reality set in
Older and so much stranger
I live at the river
Following the daily drawn out rhythm
Help me fade away
