Music and lyrics by Brian Wright {Suspension Bridge Publishing, ASCAP}

Saw her just sitting there, sunk in her shoulders
And this kind of thing, will usually blow over'
But, it ain't blowin' over
It's a new kind of pain
She cries for the boy with no name

We must have missed the last chance oasis
Free drinks all around
Sun on our faces
At just the right time, in just the right places
She cries for the boy with no name

She says “Waltz with me Darlin,
Watch the stars fallin, and know that I came
When I heard you callin'
This heartache's a game that nobody wins right away”
And it's always the same,
When she cries for the boy with no name.

Creased in the corner, cards on the table
Between secrets and dreams, who's got the angle
And time is a spy that grows blinder each day
When she cries for the boy with no name

We must have missed the last chance oasis
Free drinks all around
Sun on our faces
At just the right time, in just the right places
She cries for the boy with no name

She says “Waltz with me Darlin…”

She cries and she cries and she cries
She cries all night
(Repeat)

Excellent. You sound so different. A bit Elvis Costello and Elliot Smith in there. An urban album. Great clean sound. Love Holidays. More, please? Roy Greer
