Why don't you come over 'bout a quarter to nine |
|
Bring all of your fam'ly and |
|
I will bring mine |
|
If I should bring my brothers, and you bring the others |
|
Then I can sing a song like |
|
Jeru, just for you |
|
Just for all the lovely people that you see in the road |
|
We'll sing them a song in |
|
Jeruvian mode |
|
If I can have a pref'rence, |
|
I'll even make ref'rence |
|
To why you write a song like |
|
Jeru, just for you |
|
Then if you'd be kind enough to tell me why youwrite these extended bridgescan it be romance that alwayshaunts me in my reverie? |
|
So why not come on over 'bout a quarter to eight |
|
If you can come early |
|
I'll never be late |
|
And now you're all invited, |
|
I hope you're delighted |
|
To sing a little song like |
|
Jeru, just for youjust for me too -- |
|
Gather around, tale to be told |
|
Maybe it's new, maybe it's old, listen my friend |
|
Blowin' away, doin' alright |
|
Plain' all day, workin' all night, listen again |
|
Movin' along, coverin' ground |
|
Singin' the song, lovin' the sound, listen and thenblow together birds of a feather |
|
Out playin' the blues and "I Got Rhythm" |
|
All at once a moment came without a warning |
|
Got so hot we had to cool it |
|
Go for glory, tell you the story |
|
Out payin' our dues until we found we wereassisting at an unexpected borning'twas the birth of the |
|
CoolSo now |
|
I can tell you why |
|
I'm always |
|
Trying to tell you, listen, come with me, |
|
New York, and we're together in my reverie |
|
So why don't you come over 'bout a quarter to two |
|
Forget all the others, just me and just you |
|
And while we're versifying |
|
We'd better start trying |
|
To write another song just for me |
|
Just for you, one more |
|
Jeru |
