Let me feel the slow blues
And I’ll never accuse
Anybody of dreaming
And steeling the meaning
Of words, while one sings.
It’s the music that brings
The unspeakable sense
And the magic in verse.
But the dance brings the hart
And the motions discard
In one’s body, who sings
Thinks loud, truth means
While expressing the thoughts
Or unthinkable notes,
Or unspeakable words
Of all ladies and lords,
Of all women and men
In hazards fastest train.
Please rhythm, tell us were
Should hide life’s despair
Show us where to go,
Do it fast, do it slow,
As the music dictates.
Let my body rephrase
What you say, what you mean,
While you hide in my dream.
I will learn, I will grow,
Understand life’s great show
Only while I am dancing,
Or while simply romancing,
While I’ll love, while I’ll hate
But while I’ll remain straight!
