Give up the sun


My hotel is blue
Beautiful ocean blue,

Paint melting off the walls
And I can hardly breathe
Young men nod against the palms
Turn blue and fail to breathe,

But, I came here to see,

So,
Give up the Sun, Give up the Sun
One hundred thousand times
I live just to hear you say
(I live just for once to? I live just to want to?)
Give up the sun, give up the sun...

Down along the beachline
Gulls pick at bones and glass,

Old Jew remembers Broadway
Among the tires and glass
I try to remember Broadway
I had a friend up there at last,

And she can't help me now,

So,
Give up the Sun, Give up the Sun
One hundred thousand times
I just want to hear you say
Give up the sun, give up the sun...

(solo: Jeffreylee)

Out there, the sea makes love
Waves pinwheel to the bay,

Oh, don't you leave me here
There's ghosts and rooms of pain
There's a storm out on the sea tonight
And bodies filled with pain
Palm wind across the sea tonight
Black with whirling pain
Alone against the docks tonight
Nobody knows my name,

And I can't go back again,

So,
Give up the Sun, Give up the Sun...

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The Gun Club was an American rock band active from 1980 to 1996. Founded in Los Angeles by Jeffrey Lee Pierce, the group combined elements of blues, country, punk and rockabilly into a dark and provocative sound. Pierce, the charismatic singer and guitarist, was the central figure of the group, known for his intense performances and poetic lyrics often focused on themes like alienation, death and the search for spirituality. \n\nThe Gun Club released five studio albums during their active period, including "Fire Of Love" (1981), "Sex Beat" (1984) and "Mother Juno" (1987). Their sound was influenced by artists like The Rolling Stones, Captain Beefheart and Nick Cave. \n\nDespite critical acclaim and a loyal fan base, The Gun Club never achieved mainstream popularity. The untimely death of Jeffrey Lee Pierce in 1996 marked the end of the group. \n\nSome representative tracks include "She's Like Heroin To Me", "The Devil's Playground" and "For The Love Of Money".
