MYSTIC DREAMER - ALL INSTRUMENTALS, ALL THE TIME! Just spent three weeks in the hospital (mid January). My heart stopped 4 times, twice at home, once in the ambulance and once at the hospital. I am lucky to have a nurse/wife who kept me alive with CPR. Home now but tired. Going in for an Angiogram in February and a possible pacemaker. PLEASE! Still need the real title to my posted "Unknown Bruce Springsteen". I cannot find the title to this old Bruce hit. If you know it, PLEASE e-mail me with it so I can check to see how close I came, or if I have to "revise" it! I did it from a vague memory of the tune. Recently posted an old Roy Orbison hit titled "Shahdaroba" as well as my personal favorite "Palisades Park" an old Freddie Cannon Song. I also posted "Time To Say Goodbye", a pretty orchestration of a truly beautiful song. Will post two new ones I recently wrote soon! Hopefully I will have more time to devote to my music than I did this summer Like to discuss/talk music? Contact "Frankoid111@aol.com" Love to all! Frank On Music page, please note that an asterisk * after a song title denotes an original composition. For a playlist of all my albums, see "Lyrics" on "Outer Limit".

Story behind the song
I always loved this song, it tells a stroy that has been played out over and over. (Especially if you were a musician!).
Lyrics
Third Rate Romance – The Amazing Rhythm Aces Sittin' in a tiny table in a ritzy restaurant She was starin' at her coffee cup He was tryin' to keep his courage up By applyin' booze And talk was small when they talked at all They both knew what they wanted There was no need to talk about it They were old enough to scope it out And still keep it loose She said, "you don't look like my type But I guess you'll do" Third rate romance Low rent rendezvous And he said, "I'll even tell you that I love you If you want me to" Third rate romance Low rent rendezvous When they left the bar They got in his car And they drove away He drove to the family inn She didn't even have to pretend She didn't know what for And he went to the desk And made his request While she waited outside Then he came back with the key She said, "give it to me And I'll unlock the door" She kept saying "I've never really done this kind of thing before, have you?" Third rate romance Low rent rendezvous And he said, "yes I have, But only a time or two" Third rate romance Low rent rendezvous Third rate romance Low rent rendezvous
