Երգի խոսքեր
[Տուն 1] I ducked in off the avenue Where the hand-painted sign said “sound” A bell gave one bright little note And the whole day settled down The owner said, “take your time, son” As the sleeves leaned row on row I found a band from ’71 That i’d never heard before [Նախաքնարերգ] One needle-drop, and suddenly A brass line crossed the years Somebody’s saturday came back to life And landed in my ears [Կրկներգ] There’s a whole world in the grooves Waiting where the dust comes loose Every worn-out label has a road that led it here I came in looking for a tune Found a voice that felt like truth And a hundred strangers singing softly through the years Turn it over, let it play Old songs still have something new to say [Տուն 2] A woman sorting blue-eyed soul Said, “my brother played this track” She hummed the turn-around perfectly Then laughed and took it back I told her how that chord change Was the one i couldn’t find She tapped the beat against the bin And gave me just the time [Նախաքնարերգ] We traded names of singers And the records that we knew For a little while, the past belonged To everyone in that room [Կրկներգ] There’s a whole world in the grooves Waiting where the dust comes loose Every worn-out label has a road that led it here I came in looking for a tune Found a voice that felt like truth And a hundred strangers singing softly through the years Turn it over, let it play Old songs still have something new to say [Կամուրջ] Now i’m home with a melody And a rhythm i can’t place There’s a little trace of someone else In the song i’m set to make Not a copy, not a souvenir Just a spark passed hand to hand The needle lifts, the room goes still But the feeling understands [Final chorus] There’s a whole world in the grooves Waiting where the dust comes loose Every worn-out label has a road that led it here I came in looking for a tune Found a voice that felt like truth And a hundred strangers singing softly through the years Turn it over, let it play Old songs still have something new to say [Ելք] Old songs still have something new to say I found my way by listening today
