about

A song about the river, the redevelopment, city life and paintings.......................not to mention The Thinman's shoe fetish

lyrics

I walk through city arches
Diffract across a universe
A tunnel of light and darkness
The marks we make upon this earth
And then the steel glass buildings
Litter the banks of a river
I’m anxious what the light brings
With it’s message to deliver
I’m suspicious of the shadows
Of light years passing by
I found out where the time goes
but I never found out why

I watch the women waiting
In black high heeled shoes
The traffic is impatient
They all got the Highway Blues
The day is falling
Just like all the rest
All the wasted moments
I so really meant to invest
Looking at clouds assembled
To mark pathways to the stars
Like where I saw an angel
from the back seat of car

I walked into a gallery
To see the yellow chair
Thick paint just where you left it
Almost like you were still there
If I could paint then I would paint
The views of heaven and earth
The women that would tempt a saint
And leave him in the dirt
Or maybe an old couple in an orchard
With sunlight on their hands
Looking back instead of forward
at all of their plans
