Water Under The Bridge

[Ray Brookes]

A family that lives at the end of my block
Won the state lotto and are still in shock
Barred all the windows and changed all the locks
Begging letters flowing like wine
They got all those souls but they sure as hell didn't get mine.

The geometry of life maybe ain't too fair
Run around in circles yet think outside the square
The eternal triangle ... we've all been there
We all have our own sense of shape
Make the mistake of thinking we wanna escape.

A friend of mine ran out on his woman
Hit that old road and just kept running
Everybody said they could see it comin'
She still keeps his photo on her fridge
What we do right now will one day be water under a bridge.

loving the bass guitar amidst that piano and acoustic guitar.  This is high level stuff man.
I heard your song about playing guitar drunk today and it made me laugh and laugh... even that was great.

this is superb... lyrics are really to the point.  Deep stuff.

Very nice all around. A fine song and great listen!

[chapperz66]

Wonderful stuff, mate.  The little piano and acoustic guitar lines are so tasteful and the vocal "ahs" are sublime - kind of 10CC like.

Brilliant.

[Redler]

Great song and lyrics! You have put nicely some tasty flavors to this, like piano and lead guitar additions.

Bravo, Ray!

[Bluesberry]
