There’s a tune in my head
That comes and goes
Like scarlet foliage
The pendulous love rose
J. MyOwn – 1980?
Years ago I would not have thought it could come to this. Far apart and only a wish. You see now how fun it is, to have your life like this. Never knowing that I need a kiss. Life like a picture, you are ready to paint, and all of a sudden it’s that glass you blew, a paper weight. But it is so fun to let your love come undone with understanding hearts. Here I am in the back of your mind, stored away till the end of time. But that is the price I have to pay when loving is lost, and eyes see through me.

Take a few pills
For a thrill
Pour yourself a drink
To get out the kinks
What does it matter?
When you are at the top of the ladder
Spin your mind, at the thought of fortune
Just to see where the odds fall
The sound of crisp bills…
Does it make you feel tall?
Where does it take you?
Nowhere at all
You are just you
I can’t be more than me
So give it up for some peace of mind
You’ll like it so much you’d wish it’d be
This way all the time
Take a breath of air, amaze yourself
It’s a wonder how it all goes on
When it comes all undone
But all in all, I can hear the call
It’s in the air, it’s all in care
Won’t you listen to yourself?
