Don't Let It Be You (with Goldmundo)

from A Brown Cafe at 3am by The Low Countries

/

about

The second 'bonus' track, a remake of our country classic, this time with Richard Turner aka Goldmundo who had declared his love of the track to me and an idea for a third harmony, well why not?

lyrics

The sun and the moon
Cannot lift off the gloom
And the songs are all mellow and blue
It’s not healthy to be so downhearted like me
So please, don’t let it be you…

No surprise it’s a boy
Played my heart like a toy
Once more I haven’t a clue
They’ll tell you goodbye
Leave you wondering why
So please, don’t let it be you….

Is it worth all the trouble
To give them your heart
When you know it’ll end up in two?
Is it worth all the trouble?
Well all I will say
Is please, don’t let it be you…

The sun and the moon
Cannot lift off the gloom
And the songs are all mellow and blue
It’s not healthy to be so down hearted like me
So please, don’t let it be you
Please don’t let it be you
