lyrics

Sandpaper and cigarettes
Squeaks and buzzes 'cross the frets
For that I harbor no regrets
No regrets

Curtains drawn with patterned lace
Moonlight cool across your face
A beautiful and simple grace
Simple grace

How could I forget that sound
So familiar so profound
The way you played it soft and slow
Nothing like the radio

Easy in your old blue jeans
Unselfconscious, out of key
A sweet rendition just for me
Just for me

Syncopations on the fly
Jumbled lyrics made me cry
No matter how the years go by
Years go by

How could I forget that sound
So familiar so profound
The way you played it soft and slow
Nothing like the radio

No recordings or replays
Some things are the best that way
Only they will never fade

How could I forget that sound
So familiar so profound
The way you played it soft and slow
Nothing like the radio
Nothing like the radio
