Default Lyrics That Say What We're Feeling
These lyrics spoke to me today, as Stevie's lyrics always do.

"Well, it's hard to be civil, and it's real hard to be nice"!

Please feel free to add your own thoughts and feelings.

I just wanna be back where I belong (actually to a time not a place).

Now I know how the sun must feel,
Every time it shines...

Don't know why I have to work
Don't know why I can't play
Turn me off, turn me out
But don't turn me away
Save me a place
I'll come running if you love me today

One of my favorites! I bought a house and moved into it a month ago, and I'll be setting up my little recording studio in the basement, soon. I need to get some carpet to deaden the sound down there, but for now, the acoustics are awesome, and I sit down there and sing Save Me A Place, all the fukcing time. It's my go to song down there.

I must give that a go myself!

It's such a gem of song. It has the great merit of getting its message across with beautiful efficiency. It's like LB has sat down and provided a measured counter-balance to the jovial bile of NGBA.

I've always wondered who the baritone voice is in the backing vocals at about 01:39. It's probably Lindsey singing in a lower register or a bit of studio trickery, but I'm not absolutely sure.

Pretty much all of Before The Beginning... but this in particular.

But how many times
Must I be the fool
Before I can make it
Oh make it on home
I've got to find a place to sing my words
Is there nobody listening to my song?
