Jacket

(Howard Aronson)

This lyric is about a gift I got from her old girlfriend, and shortly after she gave it to me I found out she was cheating. I was so pissed off and broke up with her immediately. But one thing that I've loved as far as clothing goes his leather jackets, and she knew that. That's why she gave me a leather jacket, because she wanted to keep me happy even though I kind of said something wasn't right. Then I found out the bad news. After that I got rid of everything that would be any kind of memory of her, except the leather jacket I wanted to get rid of it but I just couldn't. I don't know if it was my love for leather jackets, or I just wanted one piece of something to hang on to that was a part of her. I guess I'll never know

I have a black leather jacket Hanging in my closet Used to be my favorite Now I never wear it She gave it to me in 2003 Now that she's gone Doesn't mean anything to me I keep on saying I'm going to throw it into the sea I burned all her pictures Tried to forget the memories That leather jacket Was the last thing she gave to me I don't know why I can't set it free I don't know why I can't set it free I should give it to a shelter Or the salvation army But the last thing I'm going to do Is put that jacket on me I burned all her pictures Tried to forget the memories That leather jacket Was the last thing she gave to me I don't know why I can't set it free I don't know why I can't set it free I have a black leather jacket Hanging in my closet Used to be my favorite Now I never wear it She gave it to me in 2003 Now that she's gone Doesn't mean anything to me I keep on saying I'm going to throw it into the sea I burned all her pictures Tried to forget the memories That leather jacket Was the last thing she gave to me I don't know why I can't set it free I don't know why I can't set it free The last thing I'm gonna do, is put that fucking jacket on me.

Basking in the light

By Howard Aronson

This lyric is about my first real love, when I was living in San Francisco in 1984. As soon as I saw her I was completely attracted and wanted to know who she was. She was on a life cycle at the gym, and as luck would have it after waiting for one to open up the one next to her became available. I waited for about 10 minutes and then asked her name and introduced myself. I asked her out to dinner, she said yes and the rest was all history as they say. Even though she had a boyfriend back in Canada, they had an agreement that they were free to do what they wanted while they were apart from each other. Being so young I didn't care about the boyfriend back in canada, and I had already come to grips with the fact that one day she would go back there for good because she was on a student visa. I can't even begin to tell you the unbelievable times that I had with her, and how she shaped my mind as far as women and their needs and so much more for years to come. Now in my 60s, I still remember her like yesterday. There are times when I want to go back to that time in the gym and see the first love of my life.

I got to get away from the girl

By Howard Aronson

This lyric is about a love that has gone wrong and and they just need to get away they were once in love with this girl but now things have changed almost overnight and he knows he has to get away. He doesn't know where he's going and what's going to happen but he has to do the right thing and leave. It's so surreal to him, because this girl was the love of his life and he thought she was going to be in his life forever. But things change, and the next minute you're in a totally different situation, with different feelings about the situation. It's hard to walk away from the one that you love but sometimes you have to

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

Leave Her Alone

By Jones Lyrics

Topic(s): If we hold on to something too tight, it won't stay. Atmosphere: pop character, catchy chorus, singer/songwriter, charty, extraordinary verse melody, can be a stop & go style, can be melodically fluent Genre/Style I was thinking of: Pop, Singer/Songwriter, Indi-Electronic, Indi-Pop, Synth-Pop Artist(s) I was thinking of: Imagine Dragons, The Weeknd, dvsn, Awolnation, Milky Chance, Passanger, RacknBone, Topic (ft. A7S), Phil Might Leave,... Comments: typical pop-structure & easy to sing along with in the chorus. In the verses I thought of a lot of breaks (e.g. "How many"...break... "Times"; A bit like in the song "Believer" - Imagine Dragons). I might work with it myself, so cant give you exclusive licence on that one.
