Sunday August 14, 2022 “Can’t Find the Time” Orpheus

I really enjoy this charming tune, great harmonies, well produced and while I was researching this brief piece I had it on repeat and never got tired of hearing it. And although I realize that it is just a song I have to be honest, the lyrics really confused me.  All those lovely emotions in the verses, ‘I  could fit ‘em in a book of a thousand pages’, ‘I could never tell a lie in a thousand ages’, ‘And I fall in love with you every time I see you’ followed by ‘Baby you’re wrong, Baby you’re wrong’.

It of course was not troubling enough to stop me from listening to it though, constantly.

There’s not much I can tell you about this group Orpheus and their song which only reached number 80, but I just couldn’t resist this tune, so apologies on the lack of details here but I hope the engaging aspects of “Can’t Find the Time” will generate some level of forgiveness.

Stay safe and well…and let me know, while you are listening to Orpheus singing “Can’t Find the Time”, if you 're thinking, wait this could be The Association.

Ba da da da da da da

I can't find the time to tell you

Ba da da da da da da

I can't find the time to tell you

 So many things to say

I could fit 'em in a book

Fit 'em in a book of a thousand pages, yeah

 So many people say

That I couldn't tell a lie

Couldn't tell a lie in a thousand ages

 Baby you're wrong

Baby you're wrong

 [Chorus]

 I look at your pretty face

And I fall in love with you

Fall in love with you every time I see you, yeah

 Nightgowns of regal lace

That are flowin' to the ground

Flowin' to the ground in a mist around you

 Baby you're wrong

Baby you're wrong

Baby you're wrong

Baby you're wrong

 [Chorus]

 Ba da da da da da da

Ba da da da da da da

Ba da da da da da da

Ba da da da da da da
