lyrics

Live Close to Me
(John Sule and Glenda Rogers)

Verse 1
I saw today the perfect house – Up the hill looking over the sea
I think you’d love this quaint little house – just up the road round the corner from me
There’s off-street parking and plenty of sun - The garden has growing some fine native trees
We’d sing our songs on the old wooden porch - Feet on the rails looking out to the sea.

Chorus
Won’t you come and live close to me (we could laugh and share cups of tea)
Won’t you come and sing songs with me (harmonising, guitars on our knees)
Won’t you come live, live close to me

Verse 2
The rooms face the sun thought it does cop the breeze – There’s space out the back for growing some greens
The kitchen needs work if you know what I mean – There’s a shed for Brett to fix his machines
I can see us now walking down to the sea – It’s not too far through the old cemetery
You’d fit right into this suburban dream – A slice of heaven for a minimal fee

Chorus
Won’t you come and live close to me (we could laugh and share cups of tea)
Won’t you come and sing songs with me (harmonising, guitars on our knees)
Won’t you come live, live close to me

We could live so happily – sipping cups of tea
We could sing in harmony –- Guitars on our knees]

Chorus
Won’t you come and live close to me (We could laugh and share cups of tea)
Won’t you come and sing songs with me (Harmonizing – guitars on our knees)
You’d fit right into this suburban dream (A slice of heaven for a minimal fee)
Won’t you come live, live close to me

about

Both Sides of the Line Dunedin, New Zealand

Both Sides of the Line's cd, Sideshow, is " a record chock full of slinky country tunes, built upon 21st Century ‘adult contemporary’ bones. Digging a little beneath the surface you will find cooing swing come-ons here (Magical Man), fleeting touches of Americana there (Macs General Store), rockabilly beats and soft rock tendencies throughout." (Ricardo Kerr, NZ Musician). ... more
