One, two, three, four
Will is my friend
Will sings like John
Goin' back to California
Will is the west
Coast with me
Will is a pass
Is a plenty
Will is a good friend of mine
With whom i spend a whole lotta my time
The lemon tree
It laughs at me
It's growin' beautifully
The little vine
It won't unwind
And it'll wrap your whole in time
Now let's have a glass of wine
Now let's have another glass of wine
This is the water
In which we wade
This is our father
And this is how he strayed
This is the wind
And this is the breeze
I ooooo eeee
Will is my friend
Will sings like John
Goin' back to California
Will is my friend
Will sings like John
Goin' back to California
Will is the west
Coast with me
Will is a pass
Is a plenty
Will is a good friend of mine
With whom i spend a whole lotta my time
The lemon tree
It laughs at me
It's growin' beautifully
The little vine
It won't unwind
And it'll wrap your whole in time
Now let's have a glass of wine
Now let's have another glass of wine
This is the water
In which we wade
This is our father
And this is how he strayed
This is the wind
And this is the breeze
I ooooo eeee
Will is my friend
Will sings like John
Goin' back to California

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
pretty sure "john" refers to Lennon, who has obviously been a huge influence on Devendra's music.
This song gives me a very nostalgic feeling.
It literally seems to be an ode to a long lost great friend. As he sings, he's reminiscing on the good times while contemplating the thought of revisiting his old friend. He also appears to ponder what exactly happened that caused so much lost time to pass between them.
I love the way he describes his experiences and the visually enticing moments that trigger memories of his friend.
Devendra is a hidden treasure.
this song is so beautiful.
will is the west coast with me.... i love Devendra.
will is the west coast with me.... i love Devendra.
My favorite from rejoicing in the hands. The lyrics may seem silly but they do have meaning upon close inspection:
the lemon tree it laughs at me it's growin' beautifully the little vine it won't unwind and it'll wrap your whole in time
This verse is the most interesting in the song. Devendra notices the lemon tree tree "laughing" at him because it grows so well, whereas perhaps Devendra feels he isn't growing up the way he should. The line about the small vine wrapping "your whole" in time is a bit melancholy: nature will move on after you have died, covering up all you've done.
Amazing stuff.
Wow. Nice translation couldBanyone.
love this song
i think that "will" isnt an actual person but a feeling and the song is about devendra's will to become a musician(like when he sang songs on people's anwering machines). the vine represents how his dream consumed him and maybe the laughing lemon tree could symolize people discouraging him along the way.
