The perfect opener. From his 1997 album, Flaming Pie. An invitation from us, from Paul McCartney, to sit down and discuss ... and sing this song we were singing.
lyrics
For a while, we could sit, smoke a pipe
And discuss all the vast intricacies of life
We could jaw through the night
Talk about a range of subjects, anything you like
Oh yeah
But we always came back to the song
We were singing
At any particular time
Yeah, we always came back to the song
We were singing
At any particular time
Take a sip, see the world through a glass
And speculate about the cosmic solution
To the sound, blue guitars
Caught up in a philosophical discussion
Oh yeah
But we always came back to the song
We were singing
At any particular time
Yeah, we always came back to the song
We were singing
At any particular time
For a while, we could sit, smoke a pipe
And discuss all the vast intricacies of life
Yeah we could jaw through the night
Talk about a range of subjects, anything you like
But we always came back to the song
We were singing
At any particular time
Yeah, we always came back to the song
We were singing
At any particular time
Yeah, we always came back
Take a sip, see the world through a glass
And speculate about the cosmic solution
To the sound, blue guitars
Caught up in a philosophical discussion
Oh yeah
But we always came back to the songs
We were singing
At any particular time
Yes, we always came back to the songs
We were singing
At any particular time
Yeah
We always came back
To the songs we were singing
