Lyrics:
EVERYDAY NEWS
By©Bernardo Barreto

Looking out the window
I see many people passing by
I look at their tears
Reflecting the light from the sky.

I walk on the street
Water running under my feet
I come to my house
And hide my life under a sheet.

No time for pain
No time for sorrow
We know we will
Be gone tomorrow.

(solo)

A woman in an alley
Sticks a needle in her arm
dreaming about some valley
Where no one will do her any harm.

A kid gets shot,
A mother cries
A policeman looks away
While everybody lies.

No time for pain
No time for sorrow
We know we will
Be gone tomorrow.

Have to agree with Dick, this is very, very cool. The guitar work couldn't be better and I remember loving your lyrics on your last post and I love them this time around, as well. "I come to my house and hide my life under a sheet," is really evocative. You sang this very, very well, too.

Thank you so much for your comments. I know it's been a while. I't nice to find the same familiar faces (icons,avatars). I'll try my best to listen to all of your new tunes as well.

Your music continues to mesmerize me &mdash 05/30/08 - 08:40:35 PM
They are like musical pictures that you just want to stare at for hours, and you keep finding some detail that you must focus in on. Your paint brush works well on your guitar. I try not to miss anything you do. Never a disappointment. Just one suggestion: You really should move out of that neighborhood. Terry

LOL &mdash 05/31/08 - 04:20:48 AM
Yeah...too bad this neighborhood is a whole city.
The truth is I'm just focusing on one part of the reality of this town where I have lived half of my life: New York City.
It really isn't as bad as it seems or maybe I'm just totally insane as most of the people who live here.LOL

Thanks a lot for the comments.

Like the feel and the sound of it though would have liked the vocals brought up just a little more.
