From the recording ORKESTRAZZ VII Album - Vocal Edition I
Lyrics
I Just Listen To My Music
[Verse 1]
I don’t talk to people, no, not like before,
The words get tangled, fall to the floor.
Their answers, rehearsed, like an old cliché,
So I’ve learned to let my records play.
[Chorus]
I just listen to my music, sweet and low,
It tells me things that no one seems to know.
The saxophone sighs, the violins cry,
It’s my only comfort, my alibi.
[Verse 2]
Conversations fade like vapor in the air,
The questions they ask, I no longer care.
The needle spins truths in a groove so deep,
And the rhythms rock my soul to sleep.
[Prechorus]
No more confessions, no open doors,
Just melodies that mend my sores.
[Chorus]
I just listen to my music, sweet and low,
It tells me things that no one seems to know.
The saxophone sighs, the violins cry,
It’s my only comfort, my alibi.
[Bridge]
The trumpet whispers secrets the world won’t share,
The cello hums a solace beyond compare.
I sit in the dark, with the stereo’s glow,
And let the music teach me all I need to know.
David Rose
