A 60’s Rhythm ‘n Blues nuanced band that has successfully made it into the short-list of local bands with soulful character. Their music is like a wake-up call for the youth of today to leave their computer screens or look up rather than down to communicate through smartphones; and to dance, make love, play, and be alive under the sun. Indische Party selected as the winner of Converse Rubber Tracks 2015 and recorded two songs at the legendary Abbey Road Studios in London, England.
Babe You Got A Hold On Me Somehow
Indische Party Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll be by your side and I will comfort you I would
I promise you I would
Every time the sorrow breaks you down
I would steal the rainbow from the sky for you I would
I promise you I would
You gotta read between the line
Babe you got a hold on me somehow
Every time the tears falls in your eyes
I'll be by your side and I will comfort you I would
I promise you I would
Now your man is back from out of town
I'll go disappear for not too long I'll stick around
Till the end of time
You always say you need more time
You gotta read between the line
Babe you got a hold on me somehow
Every time the sorrow breaks you down
I would steal the rainbow from the sky for you I would
I promise you I would
You always say you need more time
You gotta read between the line
Babe you got a hold on me somehow
Oh no
Babe you got a hold on me somehow
Oh no no no no no
Babe you got a hold on me somehow
Oh no no
Babe you got a hold on me somehow
