Sons of Bill - Radio Can't Rewind lyrics

rate me

Well, days they run like ink on pages stained with coffee, blurred with tears and rain.

Some song about a lover leaving, broken hearted,

a troubadour that's run away.

Where the story's tread a beaten path,

worn out lines and feelings already talked about.

You trade the song in for a single,

and a chance to see your name up on those charts.

So you go back home,

just to find that magic line.

Better sell it all the first time that you spin it

'cause radio can't rewind...

radio can't rewind.

Back out on this bus my back is tired,

and my head is hangin' low.

I'm sick of all this talk from men,

who never lived a day of what they say they know.

What echos of those singers past will soothe

my aching heart and help my soul to rest.

Well they fell upon the needle with a thought that they could be the very best.

So they go back home

just to find that long lost rhyme.

'cause it all comes to be a distant memory,

'cause radio can't rewind..

yeah, radio can't rewind.

Ooh they sing for the loss of everything.

'cause we know we'll never have that time again

So you go back home,

just to find that long lost time.

The years all go like songs that came before you,

that radio can't rewind...

yes radio can't rewind...

oh radio can't rewind...

oh radio can't rewind.
