I am fascinated by the ability of some songwriters to capture ideas, feelings and events, in a few well selected words. This will be a series containing a line or two from some of my favourite songs. I hope I am not breaking any copyright laws. It is done in admiration, not in an attempt to rip anyone off.
Songlines #1
Paul Kelly
Love Never Runs On Time
I stopped, I don't remember the name of the town.
But the colour of the coffee was a warning,
It was the colour of the river but not nearly as brown.
