Week 44 - Rhymes With Orange (221030)

from Song A Week, Volume 7 by James Tristan Redding

/

lyrics

I've been tryin' to learn all the rules
Words like an iron crown without a jewel
They say spell it like this rhyme it like that
Now I might say it wrong but I know the facts

There's no gold where the rainbow ends
Only wet wet ground
Sometimes when you lose a friend
Ain't nowhere to be found

There's no face in the moon London bridge ain't fallin'
And the tooth fairy isn't real
So what if nothing rhymes with orange
I'm gonna' tell you how I feel

You've been givin' me new ideas
Night times full of silence mornings bright and clear
If I break some law they can lock me up
Only key I got is honesty and that's enough
