Body and Soul

Body and Soul

Looking in the mirror
Smoke has made the glass quite dull
Everything has lost it's edge
Including Me as well

Another dawn is rising
The trees begin to sway
Clouds are dark and thickening
Looks like rain today

Coasting through another day
Keep the blues away
Surely as the sun does rise
My time's begun to fade

Many years have come and gone
Through this soul of mine
Aging is a natural thing
My mind can't seem to find

So here I sit this very day
Guitar at my side
Through the music that I play
My age will always hide

Far out funky outa sight
Peachy keen and nifty
Neato cool can ya dig it man
Yeah I'm damn near fifty



Inspired by "Hilch's" "My new song"

Last verse was just for kicks

Wow ...Inspired by something I did ...

I love the way you bring some lovely imagery into the song ..The glass , the tree all very good ...

Last verse yeah ..You gotta have fun with your songs other wise you become a writter , writting about death and doom and gloom ..

Lovely lyrics

Well done
