"Flipside Of The American Dream" lyrics
"Flipside Of The American Dream"
This is the flip side of the American Dream
This is the riptide of the American Dream
No way up from here
No way up from here
When the county fair was over
We went drinking in the sundown
She said, "Pull yourself together, man
And put that stupid gun down"
No way up from here
No way up from here
This is the flip side of the American Dream
This is the riptide of the American Dream
This is the flip side of the American Dream
I was up in Cedars-Sinai
Reaping consequences
Almost a dead man by the time I
Staggered to my senses

Roxy Music - "My Only Love" Do I ever wonder?
More than words can say
Heaven knows it's
Hard enough to pray
Let me tell you something
There's a change in me
Even now you're gone
You'll always be
My only love
My only love
Only...
Deacon Blue - "Your Town" I wouldn't want to be you
Mostly not even near you
When you're gone they will curse you
And raise the tide against you
I no longer care now
For what you said was fair now
I just don't go there now...
Morcheeba - "The Edge Of The World" Lay it on the line
We are bold we are beautiful
Wide eyed and running
From the nothing
To the nothing
Flow slow
Sow the seed of light
Grow the fruit of love
Overturn the burden of times as
The sand...
