Levee Break - 矢野顕子 (やの あきこ)
Lyricist:AkikoYano/Peter Barakan
Composer:AkikoYano/Haruo Kubota
Don't tell me what the people say about me
I guess I can imagine
They think I only give a hang about me
I drive a hard bargain
We made this levee big high and wide
Enough to keep our troubles outside
Without it there'd be nowhere to hide
Don't let the levee break
I always have to call a spade a spade
But maybe not today
Sometimes you have to feel between the lines
I see the danger signs
We made this levee big high and wide
Enough to keep our troubles outside
Without it there'd be nowhere to hide
Don't let the levee break
Good times and bad times
Too much is just too much
Feelings will soon overflow
That little dutch boy
Held off the flood with just a finger
It's gonna take all of me
You're living in a room of total darkness
Let's open all the windows
It nothing on the radio is happ'nin'
Why don't you sing your own song
We made this levee big high and wide
Enough to keep our troubles outside
Without it there'd be nowhere to hide
Don't let the levee break
Good times and bad times
Too much is just too much
Feelings will soon overflow
That little dutch boy
Held off the flood with just a finger
It's gonna take all of me and you
I hear a mighty rumblin' sound
Fire on the levee burning down down
I think my heart would burst I can't stand
Too see it breakin' up
We made this levee big high and wide
Enough to keep our troubles outside
Without it there'd be nowhere to hide
Don't let the levee break
Now every time I come across a new crack
I get another heartquake
You know for us to keep it all together
A lot of love it's gonna take
Now every time I come across a new crack
I get another heartquake
You know for us to keep it all together
A lot of love it's gonna take
