lyrics

HERE I GO C. von Sneidern

Here I go, tell me how I found
nothing was around for opportunity
I want to know, why right from the start
I can't steal a heart to fascinate me

If you would like to know
nobody ever calls or asks my name
You'd think I'd want to go
back to the time and place from where I came

But you arrive, take me by surprise
I will not disguise my wishful mind
In spite that I've fallen once before
You're the one I'd swore I'd never find

You'll see a light that shines upon the gloom
pretending to presume he knows everything you need
and then proceed
He'll make your life a peaceful means to end
and then you'll both pretend you're satisfied

(solo horn)

We're much too young to judge
Don't throw away the days that come our way
I'll lay my knife in blood
just tell me where to be and name the day
and let the others go their way
when all is said and done
you won't regret this one

So now you know, suddenly aware
Life without a care to come along
How I know if it's going well
only time will tell if I am wrong
and here I go, here I go, here I go

All A View
by Wanderlust

supported by 5 fans who also own “Here I Go”

The thing with Wanderlust albums is that they never fall off my playlist. I've been listening to Prize for more than two decades now and I keep coming back to it, and sounds like this one is going to do the same thing. Every time I listen I like it more. technofunkboy

Upside Down
by The Rallies

supported by 5 fans who also own “Here I Go”

A contender for best pop-rock album of 2019. Will Pitchfork and hipsters of their ilk ever take notice of The Rallies and the many artists who do not benefit from the hype that they create around far less talented musicians? POPPHIL

Don't believe the name of their latest album; jangle-pop hooks and stacked grunge guitars are two of the Bay Area band's greatest gifts. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 16, 2023
