Unknown Artists/Songs On Muzikum - Sweet Song From Yesterday (gezongen door/sung by Bob Zentz) songtekst
Over deze songtekst:
Bob licht toe:
"The old songs (and the ones that seem as though they've always
been around) take care of us, and tend to cleanse us by washing
away the immediate grit and grime of everyday existence in a
'solution' of 'we've all been there before.' Those songs and
tunes tend to plug us into the mainstream of mankind, and let us
live and learn from the billions who have lived, lost, worked,
loved, and felt - and celebrated it in song.
Sometimes I realize that my songs tell who I am better than I do.
We are all anchored somewhere between yesterday and tomorrow -
and those sweet songs are a way of holding hands in the darkness
as we face the unknown. As time washes over us, we keep our
footing by being rooted in tradition as we face the future."
Hold back the days in which I'm living So far from home, so far from free Hold back the way we've all been given And let a sweet song from yesterday wash over me Hold back the days in which I'm living So far from home, so far from free Hold back the way we've all been given And let a sweet song from yesterday wash over me If we should meet like ships a-passing Some stormy night upon the blue We may not speak, but for the asking And let a sweet song from yesterday wash over you Hold back the days in which I'm living So far from home, so far from free Hold back the way we've all been given And let a sweet song from yesterday wash over me When it seems your dreams ain't worth the dreaming When you can't find you way through And when your schemes ain't worth the scheming Just let a sweet song from yesterday wash over you Hold back the days in which I'm living So far from home, so far from free Hold back the way we've all been given And let a sweet song from yesterday wash over me And let a sweet song from yesterday wash over me
