Song | Mr Rock & Roll - Live At Barrowland Ballroom |
Artist | Amy MacDonald |
Album | A Curious Thing |
[00:25.25] | So-called Mr Rock & Roll, |
[00:28.52] | Is dancing on his own again, |
[00:30.53] | Talking on his phone again, |
[00:32.28] | To someone who tells him that his balance is low. |
[00:36.46] | He’s got nowhere to go, he’s on his own again. |
[00:42.79] | Rock Chick of the century, |
[00:45.66] | Is acting like she used to be, |
[00:47.69] | Dancing like there’s no-one there. |
[00:49.54] | Before she never seemed to care, |
[00:51.73] | Now she wouldn’t dare. |
[00:54.53] | It’s so Rock & Roll to be alone. |
[01:00.01] | And they’ll meet one day far away, |
[01:04.52] | And say, ‘I wish I was something more.’ |
[01:08.37] | And they’ll meet one day far away, |
[01:12.95] | And say, ‘I wish I knew you, I wish I knew you before.’ |
[01:19.35] | |
[01:25.87] | Mrs Black & White she’s never seen a shade of grey, |
[01:30.47] | Always something on her mind, |
[01:32.63] | Every single day. |
[01:34.91] | But now she’s lost her way, |
[01:37.70] | And where does she go from here? |
[01:43.34] | Mr. Multicultural sees all that one can see, |
[01:47.64] | He’s living proof of someone very different to me. |
[01:52.03] | But now he wants to be free, |
[01:54.90] | Free so he can see. |
[02:00.44] | And they’ll meet one day far away, |
[02:04.88] | And say, ‘I wish I was something more.’ |
[02:08.93] | And they’ll meet one day far away, |
[02:13.10] | And say, ‘I wish I knew you, I wish I knew you before.’ |
[02:19.94] | |
[02:25.94] | He’ll say, ‘I wish I knew you |
[02:28.96] | I wish I met you when time was still on my side.’ |
[02:35.20] | She’ll say, ‘I wish I knew you |
[02:37.64] | I wish I loved you before I was his bride.’ |
[02:44.08] | |
[02:46.13] | And so they must depart, |
[02:47.86] | Two many more broken hearts. |
[02:50.14] | But I’ve seen that all before, |
[02:52.12] | In T.V, books, and film and more. |
[02:54.44] | And there’s a happy ending, |
[02:56.89] | Every single day. |
[03:03.00] | And they’ll meet one day far away, |
[03:07.55] | And say, ‘I wish I was something more.’ |
[03:11.53] | And they’ll meet one day far away |
[03:15.70] | And say, ‘I wish I knew you, I wish I knew you before.’ |
