Coast Of Marseilles
By: Keith Sykes
1977
I sat there on the coast of Marseilles
My thoughts came by like wind through my hand
How good it'd be to feel you again
How good it'd be to feel that way again
Would you be remembering me?
I ask that question time and again
The answer came and haunted me so
I would not want to think it again
No I would not want to think it again
You make it so hard to forget
I haven't stopped lovin' you yet
(instrumental)
You make it so hard to forget
I haven't stopped lovin' you yet
When I left the coast of Marseilles
I hadn't done what I'd come to do
Spent all the money I'd saved
Still did not get over you
No I still did not get over you(Knight/Chapman)
Sometimes we need to start again
When this crazy life of ours is slow
And I guess that's why fools like us rush in
Where wise men never never go
In time we may find out why
These walls we build seem so high
But I've gotta believe that we can break through
And I gotta believe this love is good for me and you
And all we have to do to make it last, oh yeah
Is try a little harder, try a little harder
All we have to do to make it groove is try a little harder, try a little harder
You're the wildfire in my life
Always burning out of my control
Sometimes you cut me like a knife
Deep into my heart
Way down to my soul
But somehow we survive
And we get another chance to make it right
But I gotta believe that we know which path to choose
And I gotta believe that somehow we will see it through
All we have to do to make it last
Is try a little harder, try a little harder
All we have to do to make it groove
Is try a little harder, try a little harder
Each precious moment that we share
Is locked up in my heart forever more
I just need to know that you really care
When you touch my hand
Swear I'm gonna fall apart
All we have to do to make it last
Is try a little harder, try a little harder
All we have to do to make it groove
Is try a little harder, try a little harder
All we have to do to make it last
Is try a little harder, try a little harder
