From the recording Medicine
Lyrics
There’s a melody ringin’ in my ears
And I’m still singin’ along after all of these years
And there’s a symphony risin’ from the ground
Every backyard and boulevard and cable car in this old town
So turn up all the speakers, turn down all the lights
In the bars and the cathedrals, everyone’s holy tonight
This medicine, it goes down smooth
So just kick off your shoes and let the music move
Let the music move
There’s a tent revival stirrin’ in my soul
Like an antiphon, I call and respond to the song of old
There ain’t no reason for holdin’ back
There ain’t no good in missin’ out like that
I’ve been lookin’ for rest, but all I got was sleep
So maybe it’s time for a lovin’ spoonful of some sweet remedy
So turn up all the speakers, turn down all the lights
In the bars and the cathedrals, everyone’s holy tonight
This medicine, it goes down smooth
So just kick off your shoes and let the music move
Let the music move
There ain’t no reason for holdin’ back
There ain’t no good in missin’ out like that
I’ve been lookin’ for a sign, but all I got was a street
So maybe it’s time for a lovin’ spoonful of some sweet remedy
So turn up all the speakers, turn down all the lights
In the bars and the cathedrals, everyone’s holy tonight
This medicine, it goes down smooth
So just kick off your shoes and let the music move
Let the music move
Gimme some of that medicine
Gimme some of that medicine
