Apparently I also found no source for that "Lawyer+Wipe The Slate Clean" story.

Re: Opinions about the song Lost For Words

english isn't my native language, and i wasn't quite interested in PF lyrics... especially the Gilmour era (mainly because people don't talk much about his lyrics). but when i really pay attention to the Lost for Words lyrics, i think it's all about Roger.

Really? Everyone seriously thinks "enemies" (plural) refers to one person?

Re: Opinions about the song Lost For Words

If WYWH was an album about Syd, then TDB is an album about Roger. The connection is logical, musically as well as lyrically. So I think it's not accidential that Lost For Words sounds similar to "Wish you were here"

Has anyone ever wondered (as I have) if "No Way" on Gilmour's first solo album was directed at Waters...From all I have read, including the above quoted post, the dissension amongst the ranks had been in effect for some point at the time of this album (David Gilmour). Either way, it's a great song from a kickarse album...
Lyrics copied from some website....

No Way lyrics

There's no way I'm going to let go
There's no way, because it's my show
I'm hanging on for a little while
I won't go down easy, that's not my style

I'm all tied up, tied up in a knot
And I can't decide just what it is I've got
Did I get out of touch? Did I lose my way?
I've not forgot, no, not a single day

Now you might believe I'm not a happy man
Putting myself apart from the common clan
Well, the boat we're sailing, we have a leak or two
But I know it's sound, like me and you



Bump

Re: Opinions about the song Lost For Words

Gilmour has said the first verse is about Syd and the second's about Roger. No ambiguity there.
