Blues Traveler ~ My Only Regret


Music & lyrics: john popper Please let me speak of my only regret Let me speak of the girl that i'm sure you've all met A kind with the earth like a dream that you've had Terribly happy and wonderfully sad This dream got to know me when i was in school She made me look silly while i tried to act cool She asked me to dance and i flatly refused For my perpetual fear of being abused She brushed me once more, and i turned away So i can't help but wonder, what if i'd stayed Devoid of a purpose, devoid of a place I muster my courage by the smile on her face I'm not used to people didn't know who they were It needed a reason so i'd do it all for her To pry for a meeting, how secretly i dreamed Song and dance to hide, how easily it screamed She asked me to dance and i flatly refused For my perpetual fear of being abused She brushed me once more, and i turned away But i can't help but wonder, what if i'd stayed Soon i wound up in a rock and roll band A conquested number part of my total plan One night we played for many, but i played for one She'd not yet arrived and soon we'd be done We finished too early and another band was on My hopes for impressing this girl were gone She asked me to dance and i flatly refused For my perpetual fear of being abused She brushed me once more, and i turned away But i can't help but wonder, what if i'd stayed She got there soon after and to my surprise She walked right up to me with those beautiful eyes She tried conversation, i tried to be bold I came off indifferent, my manner was cold I could see i was tired, perhaps unprepared But the truth of the matter, i was too damn scared You see she asked me to dance and i flatly refused For my perpetual fear of being abused She brushed me once more, and i turned away But i can't help but wonder, what if i'd stayed In different directions our two lives have led And though not with her, but with thoughts in my head Regrets can be scary, they can choke like a noose But i also believe they can be put to good use So follow your views, but be sure that they're yours And try them out in real life, cause that's what they're for She asked me to dance and i flatly refused My perpetual fear of being abused She brushed me once more, and i turned away But i can't help but wonder, to this very day The next time the girl of your dreams asks to dance Put your dreams on the shelf and just give it a chance more free lyrics

Music & lyrics: john popper

Please let me speak of my only regret
Let me speak of the girl that i'm sure you've all met
A kind with the earth like a dream that you've had
Terribly happy and wonderfully sad
This dream got to know me when i was in school
She made me look silly while i tried to act cool

She asked me to dance and i flatly refused
For my perpetual fear of being abused
She brushed me once more, and i turned away
So i can't help but wonder, what if i'd stayed

Devoid of a purpose, devoid of a place
I muster my courage by the smile on her face
I'm not used to people didn't know who they were
It needed a reason so i'd do it all for her
To pry for a meeting, how secretly i dreamed
Song and dance to hide, how easily it screamed

She asked me to dance and i flatly refused
For my perpetual fear of being abused
She brushed me once more, and i turned away
But i can't help but wonder, what if i'd stayed

Soon i wound up in a rock and roll band
A conquested number part of my total plan
One night we played for many, but i played for one
She'd not yet arrived and soon we'd be done
We finished too early and another band was on
My hopes for impressing this girl were gone

She asked me to dance and i flatly refused
For my perpetual fear of being abused
She brushed me once more, and i turned away
But i can't help but wonder, what if i'd stayed

She got there soon after and to my surprise
She walked right up to me with those beautiful eyes
She tried conversation, i tried to be bold
I came off indifferent, my manner was cold
I could see i was tired, perhaps unprepared
But the truth of the matter, i was too damn scared

You see she asked me to dance and i flatly refused
For my perpetual fear of being abused
She brushed me once more, and i turned away
But i can't help but wonder, what if i'd stayed

In different directions our two lives have led
And though not with her, but with thoughts in my head
Regrets can be scary, they can choke like a noose
But i also believe they can be put to good use
So follow your views, but be sure that they're yours
And try them out in real life, cause that's what they're for

She asked me to dance and i flatly refused
My perpetual fear of being abused
She brushed me once more, and i turned away
But i can't help but wonder, to this very day

The next time the girl of your dreams asks to dance
Put your dreams on the shelf and just give it a chance

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
