lyrics

Scenes of cruelty and sometimes love
It’s what the world is made of
Only time will tell if we stick together

I can be alone if you gotta go
But it aint my first choice no no no
Only time will tell if we stick together

Down in the sea of darkness dear,
I’ve been a driftin for 1000 years
But only time will tell
Only time will tell
If you and I stick together

Throw me a line and pull me in
So the sea of darkness don’t win again

Only time will tell if we stick together.

about

Sonny & The Sunsets San Francisco, California

Sonny & the Sunsets are a beautiful west coast thing. Birthed from the sand, the surf, and twilight campfires down in Ocean Beach, Sonny & the Sunsets’ busted beach-pop songs spark recollections of doo wop's otherworldly despair, a dose of goofball humor from the Michael Hurley school, and positive possibilities exuded by Jonathan Richman. ... more

Maybe the best thing David ever did, which makes me extremely sad. A Jews record in all but name, but more direct in its lyricism without losing that indescribable feeling, that beauty and sorrow and lighthearted sarcasm all rolled into one profound set of lyrics that are David Berman. Not to mention the band playing on the record is probably the best Berman ever recorded with. Rest in Peace DCB. jack_thorn16
