| Aftertones ___________________________ tekst & muziek: Janis Ian origineel door: Janis Ian (1976) op repertoire Too Others Too One - tour 1999 Basement Bargains - tour 2005 niet verschenen op lp/cd/single ___________________________ the sound’s a shroud the meanings crowd Sometimes the words are painful to the ear they disappear and nothing’s clear ‘Til all that’s left to see are aftertones I take them home we live alone But I remember chains of melody it pleases me, this song’s for free And ooh, I like the sound of harmony from time to time I really do believe in some kind of tomorrow when it speaks to me Within the memories of our life gone by afraid to die, we learn to lie And measure out the time in coffee spoons in fading suns and dying moons ‘Til all that’s left to see are aftertones I take them home we live alone But I remember chains of melody it pleases me, this song’s for free And ooh, I like the sound of harmony from time to time I really do believe in some kind of tomorrow when it speaks to me |
