lyrics
1. FAREWELL MAMA So I faced up to the truth You were never there And I could tell you true I didn't really care Now it's all over Well it hurts like hell Here I broke up all my promises And I said farewell Wah wah wah wah wah wah mama Wah wah wah wah wah wah well well Wah wah wah wah wah wah mama Wah wah wah wah wah wah farewell I don't lay no blame You did the best you can You're still the only one But now the lord has taken you to him Wah wah wah wah wah wah mama Wah wah wah wah wah wah well well Wah wah wah wah wah wah mama Wah wah wah wah wah wah farewell I won't come to say goodbye I won't come to say goodbye Wah wah wah wah wah wah mama Wah wah wah wah wah wah well well Wah wah wah wah wah wah mama Wah wah wah wah wah wah farewell 2. FORTY CENTS Drowning in the silver water Where the lion never sleeps And the world must know Why do you sit Take every hit Like a canvas For the violence of his childhood It would be So damn easy baby Just to run And never look back Like it's nothing You're drowning in the silver water Where the lion never sleeps And the world must know He tried so hard To beat the odds But now he sleeps in a treehouse Built by children years ago Too much grog Not enough love and tenderness And no-one cares if he's dying now He is nothing He's drowning in the silver water Where the lion never sleeps And the world must know Forty cents Is all it takes to help them But no-one gives a damn or a dime Cause they might lose too much time In this world We're all cursed Until we find our sinking hearts We are nothing He's drowning in the silver water Where the lion never sleeps And the world must know 3. SNOW SONG If I saw you standing on a precipice About to fall into the arms of darkness Then I would come and take your hand together stand And wait with you to walk away or step into the cold I know You will be the door to heaven When you go Lying in the snow forever I'll stay with you Until we fall into the halls of ever after I'll become your evergreen and alabaster All above the winter stars are raining on The light of love is shining on your face and in your heart I know You will be the door to heaven When you go Lying in the snow forever I'll stay with you

4. SONG FOR US Do you remember we were young So highly strung Songs that were sung When the stars were shining bright Saying goodnight Always a goodnight Did I hold you just like now And say I love you I'll always love you Now you say we've fallen down Our love is over It'll never be over I just want to break your heart I just want to break my heart I just want to break your heart I just want to break my heart So we can go So we can go So we can go So we can go back So you tell me love is gone It's cold and you cry Tell me an old lie Oh it's always just like you To say it's over It'll never be over I just want to break your heart I just want to break my heart I just want to break your heart I just want to break my heart So we can go So we can go So we can go So we can go back 5. WINGS Love love love Why are you out here on your own I was already on my way Love love love Tell me who and what you've done All I ever asked was honesty I look into your eyes I stare inside your face And I know you'll break my heart I know what you will say There was a moment where I thought you were an angel There was a moment where I thought you were with me For a minute there it seemed you weren't a stranger But now all I want to do every minute is spread my wings Darling darling honey pie Won't you quit this path you're on I can give you almost anything Oh sugar lover razor burn Can't you kill me kinder Can't you hold me like you promised that day I look into your eyes I stare inside your face And I know you'll break my heart I know what you will say There was a moment where I thought you were an angel There was a moment where I thought you were with me For a minute there it seemed you weren't a stranger But now all I want to do every minute is spread my wings Oh darling don't you tell me This ain't ecstasy Oh baby come on give me Something real There was a moment where I thought you were an angel There was a moment where I thought you were with me For a minute there it seemed you weren't a stranger But now all I want to do every minute is spread my wings 6. KLAATU My love Come down from your high place Tomorrow Won't come again my friend No sun So hold your hands up to the dark Show them how you mean more than you are If your story's almost over Take my hands in yours and go Make it seem like it's not really over If a kiss will last forever Our home Is going away This sorrow Well heaven knows the end is here No sun So hold a candle to the dark Show the world that you mean more than you are And if your story's almost over Take my hand in yours and go Make it seem like it's not really over As if our love could last forever In my heart My heart I can't see the end I can't see the end Cause we'll be here for forever Hold your hands up to the stars Show them how we mean more than we are If our story's almost over Take my hands in yours and go Make it seem like it will never be over Because our love will last forever In my heart In my heart 7. ANYTHING AND ANYONE Don't take me out and don't take me home I'm no good without nor with anyone at all I'm sure to let you down I'm sure to break your heart For I am here in doubt of everyone Sure I see the light shining on your face And no I can't deny that it's anything but grace But here is why I won't and here I cannot stay Pure and devout is someone I will never be Wake up to you and no, I'll be there Wake up to you and no, I'll be there Tell me that your wrong is anywhere but right Let me see the wound, the scar behind your eyes Hold me in your arms break on down and cry I'll be your broken bones and love you one more time Wake up to you and know, that I'll be there Wake up to you and know, that I'll be there

about

Following C Side Volume 3 in numerical succession, 'Drowning Silver' once again captures Jimmy Sky's bedroom/garage interpretation of romance, life, love and learning through the medium of music. Big drums and catchy melody combine with dark pop and jangly acoustic guitar to whisk the listener away on a journey of raw emotion.
Consistently loyal to the notion that live knocks, natural hiss and backdrop discordance make for a more realistic and gritty sonic experience, this collection keeps up with digital vinyl tradition, presenting seven songs on one continuous track.
'C Side Volume 4: Drowning Silver' draws on some of Jimmy's most lyrically honest, raw and heartfelt moments to deliver remastered anthems for the human condition, nostalgia and eternal love.
