lyrics

I have a karaoke book
Pick a song you’d like to sing
Maybe Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
Or Sultans of Swing

Grab yourself a microphone
And I will take one too
We’ll sing ourselves a sweet duet
Until the song is through

Words you said to me that day
That day marked on my mind
The salty scented memories
And meanings assigned

Have yourself a cup of tea
So we can sing all day
There’s always green and always black
And always Earl Grey

Half of what I said to you
Meant something at the time
But now that I am looking back
I cannot seem to find

The meaning in the words I spoke
And all that I would do
It’s always green and always black
And now I’m feeling blue

Give emotion
I’ll try to
Bring the ocean
To my eyes and I’ll
Sing it loudly
So you’ll hear and I
I will conquer
That stage fear
It’s gone

Half of what you said to me
Meant something at the time
But holding on and holding back
Will make me lose my mind

The pink words are for me to sing
The teal ones are for you
There’s always green and always black
And now I’m feeling blue

Pick another tune my dear
We’ll sing it all the day
There’s always green and always black
And always Earl Grey

Give emotion
I’ll try to
Bring the ocean
To my eyes and I’ll
Sing it loudly
So you’ll hear and I
I will conquer
That stage fear
It’s gone
