ROCKETSHIP PARK: "STUCK WITH ME" from CAKES AND COOKIES (SBR48)
lyrics
September by the bridge watching ships dock in
waiting for my friend's friend's friend's
folks walk aboard as i wave to them
we flap our hands in the wind, wind, wind
whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
where's that money i spent
when my ship came and went
is it peaches aboard that ride
gliding into a sunset sigh
what am i missing on the other side
am i wasting my time, time, time
whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
where's that money i spent
have you ever wanted someone but you were all by yourself
just by the bridge watching ships dock in
see those passengers on board bringing lovers to other shores
clouds open up and i get real soaked
having just missed my boat, boat, boat
a horn blows and the river sings
i watch another ship come in
whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
there's only one guarantee that is that i'm stuck with me
