Bay City Rollers

The Bay City Rollers were a Scottish pop band whose popularity was highest in the 1970s. The British Hit Singles & Albums noted that they were "tartan teen sensations from Edinburgh", and were "the first of many acts heralded as the 'Biggest Group since The Beatles' and one of the most screamed-at teeny-bopper acts of the 1970s". For a relatively brief but fervent period (nicknamed "Rollermania"), they were worldwide teen idols. The group's line-up featured numerous changes over the years, but the classic line-up during its heyday included guitarists Eric Faulkner and Stuart Wood, singer Les McKeown, bassist Alan Longmuir, and drummer Derek Longmuir. more »

Headin' out of the city life,
Suitcase full of dreams
Trying to find some kind of memories
That didn't hold a distant scheme
Something she said I can't remember
But I answered her in turn all the same
And what I saw in her style
Well I'd seen it before
But somehow it looked quite different this time
Goodbye to all the friends I never had
Do you still remember me
Takin' care of all your business
You give it all away
And I wonder with all your broken dreams
and promises
If you ever knew me at all
For we are older now
But somehow you still look the same.
Say a prayer for the one you need
Too many here come back Saturday
Don't be concerned
There's too many words to say
Some things will never change
So many faces seemed to pass me by
I've had my share yes it's been used
Money talks, that's what they'd say to me
I'd only laugh at you confused
What used to be an old apartment
They've built a multi-colored jug-saw in the sky
And where the children would play
Well, they're not there anymore
But the rooms are nice with numbers on the door
But in her eyes there's a place for me
An open heart where I can hide away
Forget the changes
As life rearranges to something new
And will she wait for me
When all is said and done will she still be free
or will the chance be lost
Fro love is so hard to take
When dreams in the night are blown away
In her hand lies an opened book
She gives a sign then she turns the page
And in her smile she knows how it all will end
But in my eyes she sees
We're strangers in the wind
