THE MUSIC HAS JUST BEGUN
Don’t fail a friend
Don’t take the gifts
That are not for you
Don’t break your word
Don’t trust the life that looks
Too good to be true
You should’ve known
It was only a flash in the pan
You should’ve said
“Sorry, I’m not… I’m not your man”.
Don’t stop the band
If they come from a desperate land
Don’t spoil the sound
When their music has just begun.
In any event
I’d like to hear
The bad news first
You’ll give me some strength
To bring to an end
These longtime blues
You of all people should know
What I have to do
You know what it means
When I write a song for you
Don’t stop the band
If they come from a desperate land
Don’t spoil the sound
When their music has just begun.
(M. Petrak)
