So. Central Rain (I’m Sorry) - Live From Rock City, Nottingham / 1984

[Verse 1]

Did you never call? I waited for your call

These rivers of suggestion are driving me away

The trees will bend, the cities wash away

The city on the river, there is a girl without a dream

[Chorus]

I'm sorry

I'm sorry

I'm sorry

I'm sorry

[Verse 2]

Eastern to Mountain, third party call, the lines are down

The wise man built his words upon the rocks

But I'm not bound to follow suit

The trees will bend, the conversation's dimmed

Go build yourself another home, this choice isn't mine

[Chorus]

I'm sorry

I'm sorry

[Verse 3]

Did you never call? I waited for your call

These rivers of suggеstion are driving me away

The ocеan sang, the cities wash away

The city in the mountains, there's a boy without a dream

[Chorus]

I'm sorry

I'm sorry

[Verse 4]

Did you never call? I waited for your call

These rivers of suggestion are driving me away

The ocean sang, the conversation's dimmed

Go build yourself another dream, this choice wasn't mine

[Chorus]

I'm sorry

I'm sorry

I'm sorry

I'm sorry

[?]

Ah, yes

Ah, yeah

Oh, ow

Oh, ow

Oh, ow

[Outro]

We're R.E.M

We're here from Georgia, which is in the southernmost part of the United States

We're not proud of our president, we're sorry

(enthusiastic applause from the audience)

Um, I meant that

The more astute of you may notice there's a truck parked outside, this is being taped tonight for one of your bigger radio things

But, outside of that, the heel came off of my boot and I was wondering if anybody has a size 9 1/2 shoe I can borrow

([?])

Yeah

What color?

Does anybody mind if I wear beige shoes instead of black?
