about

When I wrote this song I had trouble putting lyrics to it, and so I wrote 2 different songs with the same melody and music. just a different chorus. We liked both songs so we balanced them as East and West, as in the east this quarrel wouldn't happen, not in that culture. This song discusses the ups and downs of a multi cultural relationship specifically, but I guess it could be two people from any culture, be it the same or different.

lyrics

Here we go round again,
Singin' that same old song.
Tryin' to stop the black hole rise
And find out what went wrong

You say something that I don't care to hear,
An' I raise my hands to my ears,
I know what's coming now,
The sum of all my fears

Musical Ain't it funny how the bad times,
Always stand out from the good?
I even took your children in,
An' I loved ‘em like I said I would...

Even that wasn't good enough for you
You still say you need your space,
Man if I ain't good enough for you,
God Knows who you‘ll love in my place

Musical I sometimes I think I'm a child again,
As I listen to you plead.
Why d' you make such a song and dance
As you stand there and stamp your feat?!

I don't know where we're going with this
I still love you just the same,
You keep throwing my heart away,
It's all just part of your game.
