about

A life long perspective on break ups, tinged with regret and some anger. Cool 6/8 groove. Dynamic track with some nice lead Gilmourish guitar.

lyrics

On With The Show (1978-2019)

Sometimes it all seems so absurd
That all you can do is laugh at your words
I remember that young man out of his depth
Spinning his words and wasting his breath

Had I known what to say instead of just talkin’
And rushin’ somewhere I should have been walkin’
So much of the message I just didn’t get
And I’m just at the top of my list of regrets

Let it go, let your sorrow melt like crestfallen snow
Let it go
For your tears, blood and sweat have had no effect
And it’s time to get on with the show

Now I am told “try not to care”
And all that I need is inside me somewhere
I remember that young man, bitter and sweet
Till you came along and made me complete

All of that talk when I should have listened
Apologies made just gave us permission
To do it again and fall under the spell
Now it doesn’t matter whose story we tell

Let it go, let your sorrow melt like crestfallen snow
Let it go
For your tears, blood and sweat have had no effect
I guess we all choose what to lose or neglect
And nothing is ever quite what you expect it to be

And it’s time to get on with the show…
On with the show (let it go)
