TRACY CHAPMAN



The 'wellspring of creativity' that Bobby Dylan mentioned in his 60 minutes interview from 2004 that I posted earlier courtesy of Aquarium Drunkard, produced these songs by the peerless Tracy Chapman too. Without any doubt, small songs somehow perfectly formed, heartfelt and revealing of the human condition, love and the ability to ask for forgiveness and to finally say 'Sorry' . . . . . . . . 






the next song means so much to me  . . . here with some backing guitarist . . . 




the original official video


such a breathtakingly beautiful song




Sorry
Is all that you can’t say
Years gone by and still
Words don’t come easily
Like sorry, like sorry

Forgive me
Is all that you can’t say
Years gone by and still
Words don’t come easily
Like forgive me, forgive me

But you can say baby
Baby can I hold you tonight
Maybe if I told you the right words
At the right time you’d be mine

I love you
Is all that you can’t say
Years gone by and still
Words don’t come easily
Like I love you, I love you


Songwriter: Tracy L Chapman
