Sweet
Co-Co Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I do I know it’s true, she hears the love I always knew
Would find its way to my life, and I would happily make her my wif
e
We would live so pleasantly, w
orking in her shop by the sea
And I don’t care one little nit that her husband was found chopped up to bits
Oh yeah
Before she was grown she was all alone, her parents left her to get some ice cream
cones
But as they drove down the lane, the brakes did fail, all that was left was a stain
It seems the lines had been severed, leaving poor Anne all a-tither
But she carried on, opened her auto show, where she keeps the ice cream fully stocked
Oh yeah
I would live so pleasantly, if I could find someone to love me
But the songs I sing are hard to hear, when the police sirens are so near
And though it seems my Valentines have all been charged with heinous crimes
I’ll wait, wait, I’ll wait

Sometimes those memories make me feel down, like waking up from a dream
落ち込んだりもした
And I can feel sad
今の僕があるのも

Glad to be able to listen to so many favorite songs of mine from this great band in good quality, plus after internet and YouTube.
My lp is already over 40 years old, still have it, but if I put it on my old player, still have one, the sound not the same with some scratches along the way 🤣
Thank you for keeping Brian’s songs alive. Precious ❤
