Song lyrics help!

[JESW]

While in a local Friendly's for dinner tonight they were playing a song that had song lyrics like : "....sitting on a bench in the park by the water playing my guitar..." or something like that. It sounds a bit like John Lennon but I don't remember anything like that by him...?

I know it's vague, but does it sound familiar to anyone????

Julian Lennon
(Written by Clayton/Morales/Lennon)


Sitting on the doorstep of the house I can't afford
I can feel you there
Thinking of a reason, well, it's really not very hard
to love you even though you nearly lost my heart
How can I explain the meaning of our love
It fits so tight, closer than a glove

[ Chorus ]

Sitting on a pebble by the river playing guitar
Wonderin' if we're really ever gonna get that far
Do you know there's something wrong
'Cause I've felt it all along

I can see you face in the mirrors of my mind
Will you still be there
We're really not so clever as we seem to think we are
We've always got our troubles
So we'll solve them at the bar
The days go by, we seem to drift apart
If I could only find a way to keep hold of your heart

[ Repeat chorus ]

Sitting in the valley as I watch the sun go down
I can see you there
Thinking of a reason, well, it's really not very hard
to love you though you nearly lost my heart
When will we know when the change is gonna come
I've got a good feeling and it's coming from the sun

Sitting on a pebble by the river playing guitar
Wonderin' if we're really ever gonna get that far
Do you know there's something wrong
We'll stick together 'cause we're strong

That sounds like its gotta be it!

to love you even though you nearly lost my heart
How can I explain the meaning of our love?
It fits so tight, closer than a glove
Sitting on a pebble by the river playing guitar
Wond'ring if we're really ever gonna get that far
Do you know there's something wrong?
'Cause I've felt it all along

I can see your face in the mirrors of my mind
Will you still be there?
We're really not so clever as we seem to think we are
We've always got our troubles so we solve them in the bar

I concur, John Lennon's eldest son Julian Lennon sang that song in the 80's/

 

[Micca]

Julian has a voice similar to John's.

 

[mickaholic4077]

The first time I heard that song I thought it was John Lennon,because Yoko had just released an album of John Lennon songs and I thought it was one of the single releases.

 

[JESW]

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!!! My ds12 is a HUGE Beatles and John Lennon fan and we kept saying that it sounded sooooo much like ohn but it wasn't on any cd/album that we had. Makes sense that it is Julian.

Thanks DISers....can always get the answers here!
