Something to Remember You By

Carla Bley & Steve Swallow - Houses and People (live)

Gone by the Next Call

[instrumental]

The spark is gone, you're on the phone
But you don't care
They might be words, it's just a drone
Going no where

Not of a sudden, but then one day
One day you know, it was a show
Every color, is turned down low

The world is gray, nothing to say
And you don't care
You don't want another day
Going no where

From now on, it's all pretend
The smile you make, The cards you send
It never ends

[bridge]

You don't fit into this life
It was fine, the world you knew
But that was then, and good for them
But you are you

You need to leave the past behind
You don't need to be unkind
Fifty ways are quite enough
Paul said it well, he said it all
So, be gone, by the next call

[instrumental]

You don't fit into this life
It was fine, the world you knew
But that was then, and good for them
But you are you

You need to leave the past behind
You don't need to be unkind
Fifty ways are quite enough
Paul said it well, he said it all
So, be gone, by the next call

[instrumental]


Gone by the Next Call

Here are the lyrics:

[Verse]
I see the skyline it’s breathing slow
A velvet haze where the secrets grow
Your touch is heat it’s electric fire
Pulling me deeper in this strange desire

[Chorus]
You're so sensual it’s criminal
Every move you make feels mythical
I’m falling hard I’m losing control
Your rhythm’s got me body and soul

[Verse 2]
The night unfolds like a whispered lie
The stars above are your alibi
Your voice it hums like a siren's tune
Drawing me close under this silver moon

[Chorus]
You're so sensual it’s criminal
Every move you make feels mythical
I’m falling hard I’m losing control
Your rhythm’s got me body and soul

[Bridge]
The air is thick with a sweet perfume
Time slows down in this endless room
Your shadow dances in liquid light
You’re the pulse that owns this night

[Chorus]
You're so sensual it’s criminal
Every move you make feels mythical
I’m falling hard I’m losing control
Your rhythm’s got me body and soul
