Lyrics:
Sitting in the back seat of my car
With my arms around my guitar
And the rain falls, from the roof of the world
Nothing around, just the trees and the ground
There's a bird in a tree singing a song, just for me
Just for me
Ah, da-da-da
La-da-da, da-da-da
La-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
La-da-da, da-da-da
La-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da-da
I've been down for oh so long
It seemed like my soul was dead and gone
But it's alright, I'm back in the fight
I thought my day would never come
Maybe it won't, but I'll have fun
And I'll hold tight, 'cause that way it might
La-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
La-da-da, da-da-da
La-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da da
Oh I know I'll be down again with my old friend
This friendship never ends
The blues is always the same
The blues is always the same
Well I don't know just where I am
I'm a nowhere man, I'm a desperate Dan
But I'll find out, maybe if I shout
Give me your hand, I'll give you my mind
It's a fair exchange if you're deaf, dumb and blind
And we're sold out, well that's what it's all about
La-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
La-da-da, da-da-da
La-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da da, da-da-da
La-da-da, da-da-da
La-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da da
Ah!

#labisiffre #watchme #mysong Classic performance from 'In Concert: Labi Siffre, 15/02/1975' Lyrics: Watch me when you call my name See me sparkle, see me flame Sing a song, playing a game Oh, I'm so glad you came Watch me when you look my way See me smiling, be my night and day Touch me in your own sweet way Feel me tremble you take my words away All of the time I love you Make you a rhyme, I l...
A pity the footage is in the USA, when Cannock Chase is in Staffordshire, England.
This song has me crying,laughing and in need to spread love.
Hermosa por siempre... La descubrí en un momento algo difícil y extraño.. Y me da fuerzas para recordar y seguir adelante (:.
Just finding out his nigerian
Life just pure Life brought me here. Avoid negative people guys embrace peace and loving one another.
2:10 one of the highest peaks of musical experience
agreed
Such a wonderful piece of music. I love it! Labi needs so much more recognition.
Incredible considering I lived right next to Cannock Chase most of my life and only now I'm finding this...
It's nice that good old things are being rediscovered...
Oh snap! I'm from that area! Gallup New Mexico and Window Rock in Arizona on the Navajo Nation. Cool
words can't describe how much i love this song
This song is criminally underrated.
Right?? I’m seeing these view counts on thinking they must not be right
Something that sounds so fantasy yet is about very down to earth sentiments.
I wanna sample this
I think someone already did, Sufjan Stevens if I remember correctly. Because it feels so familiar to me...
Turns out the song I was thinking of wasn't by Sufjan Stevens, it was Dawn in the Adan by Ichiko Aoba
Came across this by complete accident in autoplay, this is absolutely gorgeous
Acoustic stuff in the early 70s was magical. So many incredible acoustic songs in that 3 year period.
❤
2030 sampled song:
This has become one of my favorite songs, and to see the video footage taking place where I grew up (NM) is so awesome
Unsolved Mysteries brought me here. 🤷♂️
Newgen
One of the happiest songs in the world. Brings me an indescribable joy. Thank you Labbi
Takes me to a safe place in my mind. No where to run, only myself to find! Thank you for your heart spoken song.
This song is crazy good stuck in my head
Putting this comment down so hopefully Adam Winterstellar sees it. Fuck you.
who's that and what happened if you don't mind me asking lol?
Damn man why

Absolutely beautiful song
i have been on Labi's journey for a very long time- so underrated - a beautiful person and artist!
Feeling this song to the core of my soul right now💙
Que belleza. Conocí esta canción recientemente por la serie Hacks
Beautiful music that stands the test of time.
great song and video...reminds me of my childhood.
Seriously thank you to HACKS for showcasing this song and artist. I can't believe I had never heard him before and now I'm beyond hooked. Gorgeousness all around...the song and the show! #Hacks
That’s where I first heard it too, immediately went to UA-cam to find it. Love this song!
I've been listening to Labi since I was a little kid, 1970. His music still manages to play with my emotions. It's a pity he's not better known as he is a special musician, and man.
Wonderful song but weird video when he’s singing about rain and trees - and a bird. It’s a forest in Staffordshire, England, just a couple of miles from here. Best to listen and not look at the sunny home movie!
I think most people don’t realize he’s British lmfao
This song was made for me and my friends
Steven Wilson's, The Album Years, 1972, brought me here.
Amazing song. Adding the horns works out so well. Beautiful!
Wow, what a beautiful voice… I’m in love
So maybe, not about Cannock Chase, Staffs UK??
I believe it is
@@dbeme07 Interesting :)
As good as any 70s singer-songwriter but I only discovered him recently on the Radiooooo website. Such command of melancholy as something that can be beautiful.
Does anyone know the chords or tabs?
yes please! someone!
there is a guy who covers it, you can copy him : )
Please dont ever stop creating music. Just found you and love the sound!
The thing is this was recorded like 3 decades ago
