Street Corner Singing
Echoes of Love and Longing: Street Corner Serenade by The Como Brothers
Lyrics
Too much love is putt off till tomorrow
Delaying too much love for another day while engaging in excessive fighting in the present.
And too much fighting is for today
Emphasizing the prevalence of conflict or arguments in the present.
I’ll be sitting here singing my songs
Expressing a commitment to singing songs while hoping for someone's continued presence.
And I hope you know I wanted you to stay
Conveying a desire for someone's stay despite uncertainties.
If you’re street corner singing baby that’s alright
Supporting the idea that singing on the street corner is acceptable.
And if you’re gone in the morning, I’ll be holding on tight
Expressing a willingness to hold on tightly even if the person leaves in the morning.
If you want me to stay, it’ll all be just fine
Assuring that things will be okay if the person wants to stay.
Tell me that you love me at night
Requesting affirmation of love during the night.
After all this time I’ve come to my senses
Realizing one's mistakes and rectifying them over time.
And all the wrongs have turned to right
Indicating a positive shift from wrongs to rights.
I hear you calling, but I’m not looking for the answers
Acknowledging calls or appeals but not seeking answers.
I’m throwing all of them, all of them away
Disregarding or discarding all answers or solutions.
If you’re street corner singing baby that’s alright
Reiterating the acceptance of street corner singing.
And if you’re gone in the morning, I’ll be holding on tight
Committing to holding on tightly even if the person leaves in the morning.
If you want me to stay, it’ll all be just fine
Ensuring that things will be fine if the person desires to stay.
Tell me that you love me at night
Asking for verbal confirmation of love during the night.
Street corner singing
Repeating the theme of street corner singing.
Street, street corner singing baby
Emphasizing the acceptance of street corner singing, reinforcing its normalcy.
Street corner singing with me
Inviting someone to join in street corner singing.
Street corner singing
Repeating the theme of street corner singing.
Street, street corner singing baby
Reiterating the acceptance of street corner singing.
Street corner singing with me
Encouraging someone to join in street corner singing.
If you’re street corner singing baby that’s alright
Reaffirming the acceptance of street corner singing.
And if you’re gone in the morning, I’ll be holding on tight
Expressing a commitment to holding on tightly if the person leaves in the morning.
If you want me to stay, it’ll all be just fine
Ensuring that things will be alright if the person chooses to stay.
Tell me that you love me at night
Requesting verbal assurance of love during the night.
