A Hard Drinking Gambling Man

(Yelroch Stevens)

A hard drinking gambling man is a song about loss. How ones addictions can take away everything they hold dear. And when all the good is gone, all you have left are the demons that chased them off. But we only start counting our losses in life when theirs nothing left to lose.

Chorus Losing you was losing me Another loss I couldn’t see Help me change who I am A hard drinking gambling man Don’t leave me out to dry I know I’ve hurt and made you cry Please don’t leave me out to dry God help me change who I am A hard drinking gambling man Help me change who I am Verse I remember the day I bet on you Pretty girl with a baby too We were married in the fall Felt like I had won it all But now you’re choosing to leave No more aces up my sleeve Guess this time I’ve lost it all I remember the day you closed the door Told myself she’ll be back for more That was the gambler in me And all the losses I couldn’t see Now you’ve left and gone your way No more cards for me to play Guess this time I’ll wait and see Found myself at another bar tonight Card games going and the slots tight The jackpot on a cowboys land Another deal another hand All this time for me to think Another step toward the brink Where’s the lady who took my hand Bring back the lady who said I do My biggest loss was losing you Bring back her smile and caring eyes Help me find the truth within my lies All I need is one more chance Tough love and a little romance No more bars and no more lies Bring back the one who shared my life The beautiful soul I called my wife Bring back her loving caring ways I’ll dig deep for better days Let me be the one I know I can No more hard drinking gambling man You were the better part of my crazy days My days no longer play the same Time drags on and it feeds the pain Like a broken clock up on the wall Time stands still it doesn’t move at all How I wish that you were here It’s been a long and lonely year For this broken man who had it all Another year has been and gone I still wear my ring but you’ve moved on Wasted love and squandered wealth Dark days brought upon myself And I know life will never be the same Another loss to feed the pain I’ll search hard for my good ol’self Chorus Losing you was losing me Another loss I couldn’t see Help me change who I am A hard drinking gambling man Don’t leave me out to dry I know I’ve hurt and made you cry Please don’t leave me out to dry God help me change who I am A hard drinking gambling man Help me change who I am End verse Nothing I said would have made her stay I chose the deal she walked away God how I didn’t understand My biggest win was her left hand Now I’m here and I’m not alone The dealer deals and I’m at home Another drink and I’m standing tall Hope this time I win it all Just a hard drinking gambling man.

Thymian ist kein Tee

By Jones Lyrics

Topic(s): Es ist wie es ist und nicht anders, auch wenn die Relaität nicht immer direkt klar ersichtlich ist. Verunsicherung in den Versen & klare Realität im Refrain. Atmosphere: auf angeschnittene Weise politisch & kritisch, aufklärend im Chorus, evtl. heiter im Chorus, Catchiger Chorus, grundsätzlich habe ich auch im Verse eher Heiterkeit im Kopf... kann aber verschieden interpretiert werden. Genre/Style I was thinking of: Indi-Pop, Singer/Songwriter, Indi-Electronic, Alternative Artist(s) I was thinking of: Kraftklub, Von Wegen Lisbeth, Bilderbuch, Kawa Kawa,... Comments: Typische Pop-Struktur. Pre-Chorus statt Bridge. Die Pfeife im Chorus ist eine Anspielung auf René Margrites' Kunstwerk: "Ceci n'est pas ue pipe". Viel Spaß beim Performen!

Still Thinking Of You

By Jenny Yu

The process of moving on from a lost relationship is never linear and it is different for every individual. There will be good days and there will be days where you relapse and it feels like you're back at square one. This song reflects on a personal experience in moving on from heartbreak and the inner battles that my mind underwent to get through this stage of my life.

After you were gone

By Howard Aronson

This is a lyric about my grandfather, who is my best friend growing up. He was a self-made man, who had his own business as an electrician, and took me out to help him and taught me so many different lessons. If only I remembered those lessons and I didn't realize a lot of things that he taught me until after he was gone. I think if he could see me now he'd be very proud but there were times when he was alive that I was using and couldn't understand it and I'm sure after he was gone and he looked down at me and saw me abusing my life that he was saddened and could not explain why a fine young man who had all the abilities in the world to do anything he wanted, would throw away his life like that. I really miss my grandfather today, and I really reach back and try to take away things that he taught me and put them to use in my life today
