Van Morrison - Days Like This

7in7, Session 4 - Day 4

VERSE 1:
Well I could never, I would never
Try to advocate
For any foul devil, who would ever
Choose to negotiate
A closed door deal in the city of angels
Then work every angle
To spin the story for their glory
Like the web in which they are entangled

CHORUS:
That’s not defense, don’t be offensive
That’s just bad offense, it’s not worth defending
No need for pretense, so stop pretending
Like this picket fence you broke can ever be mended

VERSE 2:
I might feel better if you ever
Tried to shoot us straight
But you think you’re clever, you trade a treasure
Then try to manipulate
Like we can’t see the strings that you’re pulling
Who do you think you’re fooling
It’s just ain’t right how you gaslight
To fan the flames that you’re fueling 

CHORUS:
That’s not defense, don’t be offensive
That’s just bad offense, it’s not worth defending
No need for pretense, so stop pretending
Like this picket fence you broke can ever be mended

Defense | Offense

Song lyric and music copyright 2025 by Mike Dampf. Love You So - is a gentle love song with a bossa feel. This is a stripped down version. David Leadbitter on bass.

Love 
Stumbled in the dark
Fumbled for a spark
Tried to hit the mark
But we ran out of time

Time
All was lost or won
We were so damn young
Dancing on the sun
And unafraid of death

Time out of mind I've watched you shine
And as it all unwinds you should know
I still love you, I still love you so

Death
So many friends are gone
But somehow they live on
At sunset and dawn
When I look for hope

Hope
I find you again
Up around the bend
Someday before the end
Of everything but love

Love You So
