i hope i do not destroy Golly Sandra like i did with the Escaping song as if i was a wrecking ball attacking a vacant building. and i am not saying these are right so feel free knight in shinning armour to give us the correct lyrics.....there's your intro Kim Razz

Golly Sandra you’ve grown up pretty crazy
have I been to denying of you
Golly Sandra you’ve grown up so crazy
have I been to untrusting
to take me down to the under ground bridge
where you know I will always love you
and I’ll go without stopping

oh you are a bright star
that’s not really far away away

Golly Sandra you’ve grown up pretty crazy
have I been to denying of you
to take me down to the under ground bridge
where you know that I always loved you
and I’ll go without stopping

oh you are a bright star
that’s not really far away away

well I guess I have should have been around to sing, oh to sing
you look so beautiful
it hurts me sadly
oh

oh you are a bright star
that’s not really far away away
oh

oh you are a bright star
oh oh

Stacy has changed the lyrics of Golly Sandra a little since they first started playing this one....here's my take, maybe Kim or Christie can clarify......i always heard it as "scar", not "star"...

Golly Sandra!
you’ve grown up really crazy...
have I been too denying of you?

Golly Sandra!
you’ve grown up so crazy....
have I been too untrusting?

to take me down to the bridge
where you know I will always love you
and I’ll go without stopping

oh you are my scar
and that’s not really far away

oh you are my scar
that’s not really far away

well I guess I have should have been around to sing you to sleep
you look so beautiful....
it hurts me slightly

oh you are my scar
and that’s not really far away away

AND on the latest MP3 Boyd posted from the other night,
she has added something at the end like ...
"Oh you know i've tried so hard ...
I love you"

or something like that.

Kim? Christie? Smile

"star" seems a tad bit more eisleyish than "scar"
...just my opinion...

I felt like I should have been riding a horse in a Western when I heard this song in Chicago (yes, for the first time)

Gooood song though; I liked it.

I think Kyle has it more correct, except it is "star" not scar.

I'll have to listen again.

"Golly Sandra" blew me away live, even though I couldn't understand the words. Stacy wrote one darn good song.

Sorry, we're out of placation.

Will patronizing do?
