(Fearing) Talking with my friends around a bottle of red wine We laugh a lot, telling jokes, telling lies Money in the bank is knowing people that you like Knowing people you can trust in troubled times 'Cause time offers no guarantees And it only takes a little thing to bring you to your knees To face the music playing now Like a song on the radio It's sad and it's familiar spreading like a rumour And everybody knows that old song on the radio As clear as black and white We can sing it with our eyes closed Everybody knows that old song on the radio The morning's in the headlines and the tealeaves in my cup But I still don't know what isn't true The sun rose on the city and everyone so busy Making plans up and down the avenue A flash of silver caught the public eye And we all turned to stare into the New York sky To face the music playing now Like a song on the radio It hurts to have to hear it Seemed too cruel to bear But everybody knows that old song on the radio The red, white and blue It's a scar and a tattoo And everybody knows that old song on the radio Drums: Gary Bass: John Organ: Richard Acoustic Guitar: Tom Electric Guitars: Colin Acoustic Guitar, Lead Vocal: Stephen ©Darryl Sterdan/Winnipeg Sun
