lyrics
Apologies
The pleasure would be hers
that’s what she was hinting at,
on that fateful night,
in the bar, at the harbour.
My leg was hurting bad,
must ’ve had a drink or two
When she put the gun
on the table
I ran the odds against my luck
Hoping I’d be able
to confess
All I can say now
All I can do now
Is to offer you my apologies
I remember the man at the bar
He was looking kinda strange at me
When the girl had disappeared
the gun also vanished into thin air
My head was hurting bad
must ’ve had something to drink
But I don’t know what it was
I weighed the odds and tried my luck
Guessing I could get out of there
High crimes and misdemeanour
Conspiracies, whatever you believe
She went away in the night
To the sea, to be never seen again
On her first release for RVNG, Discovery Zone makes lustrous, winking pop music that's equal parts pleasant and mysterious. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 9, 2024
