Radio Paradise (mobile)

Time after time, I held it,
Just to watch it die.
Line after line, I loved it,
Just to watch it cry.
Bless the weather that brought you to me,
Curse the storm that takes you away.
Bless the weather that brought you to me,
Curse the storm that takes you home.
Wave after wave, I watched it,
Just to watch it turn.
Day after day, I cooled it,
Just to watch it burn.
Bless the weather that brought you to me,
Curse the storm that takes you home.
Bless the weather that brought you to me,
Curse the storm that takes you away.
Pain after pain I stood in,
Just to see how it would feel.
Rain after rain I stood in,
Just to make it real.
Bless the weather that brought you to me,
Curse the day you go away.
Bless the weather that brought you to me,
Curse the storm that takes you away.
Time after time, I held it,
Just to watch it die.
Line after line, I held it,
Just to watch it cry.
Bless the weather that brought you to me,
Curse the storm that takes you away.
Bless the weather that brought you to me,
Curse the storm that takes you away.

Love Big John, especially work from that era. But I have to say I prefer the arrangements on "No Little Boy" even over those on "Solid Air" and "One World". Saw him a few times and he could be a cantankerous old sod, but Dear Lord, he could conjure up such incredible music. Undoubtedly one of my very favourite musicians. [ Reply ]
