“Heard you
Come through my radio
Sing my truth
Back to me”
‘Roger' is an instant Damien Jurado classic, with intriguing lyrics and sublime vocal delivery drenched in a lush string arrangement.
lyrics
Roger
Heard you
Come through my radio Sing my truth
Back to me
Never!
Never did I walk alone Who I was
Echoing back
In the rhythm of rain
On my city street
Caught my reflection in a Store front window
Move on!
There’s no sense in throwing dimes Heard my thoughts Played through a tape delay
That’s my life
Heard in a grocery store My first divorce
Sung by a choir
Play on!
“There’s no such thing as better days” Soon on screen Piercing the celluloid
Play on!
Why wait for them to change? Living life
Left of the dial
