Welcome back to another #MusicMonday! It’s not about books, but about music, and I’m looking forward to presenting you with a taste of my playlist. It’s the brainchild of Drew from The Tattooed Book Geek, but my inspiration comes from the lovely Claire from A Knight’s Reads. Every Monday, I’ll be choosing a song to share with you. The Spotify playlist is here and it will be updated as I go along.

This week’s track is another one by a band recommded to me by Emma. I discovered them a few weeks ago and have listened to them a lot since. This track is one of my favourites.

Red Rum Club: American Nights And English Mornings

How you sleeping on the West Coast?
I got the blue-sky blues
I’m out cold when you need me most
It’s dark at home when I need you
Seven hours between us
Another call falls through, it’s nothing new
Stay up till 2 tonight to try to talk to you

I’m well away in yesterday and unaware you’re calling
You’re calling me from GMT in every bed I fall in
You’re on the early start, we’re worlds apart, I’m so exhausted
I’m tryna make it right in American nights and English mornings

Another city in my way, another false embrace
Crawling back down Broadway
I could’ve swore I saw your face
Another night nocturnal
Whеn the lead role in my drеams is on my screen
Stay up till 3 tonight to try to talk to me

I’m well away in yesterday and unaware you’re calling
You’re calling me from GMT in every bed I fall in
You’re on the early start, we’re worlds apart, I’m so exhausted
I’m tryna make it right in American nights and English mornings

[Instrumental Break]

I’m well away in yesterday and unaware you’re calling
You’re calling me from GMT in every bed I fall in
You’re on the early start, we’re worlds apart, I’m so exhausted
I’m tryna make it right in American nights and English mornings
I’m well away in yesterday and unaware you’re calling
You’re calling me from GMT in every bed I fall in
You’re on the early start, we’re worlds apart, I’m so exhausted
I’m tryna make it right in American nights and English mornings
