simple song: i'm happy
to see you everytime i see you coming my way i get so excited - and calm somehow deep down inside i just wanna state
this simply, inside this simple song - i just wanna love you
i love it when we're out walking your
arm entwined in mine i love how it's unfolding i love how we're just taking our time who knows where
we're going it's nothing we can guide i just wanna be in this i just wanna be inside (your beautiful
eyes)
i never said grace before dinner ever since my father died and when we prayed in soul kitchen last
night you know it felt so sweet inside
i wish you could've met my father i know he would have enjoyed
you he was complex in his own way but he was a good and simple man too
and i don't mean to make you
nervous... but you know i wish you could've meet my mother too she swung from vivacious to blue, but encouraged
to in everything i ever wanted to do.
but this is just a simple song.
you know... sometimes in
this life i wonder how anyone makes it through? you know, lay down in your final hour without worrying
about the things that you wonder if you could undo.
but this is just a simple song.
i'm turning
my back on words now no more weighing the worth of observations. the poet's voice dried with the search for
perfection, and i just wanna sing a simple song.
i could feel the empty egg shells of dreams in the hollow
of my skull. blown by taunting winds across floors of a rememberance of an enthusiasm when, ... as a young
boy full of trust and belief in the aether (and my own abilty to pull the sword from the stone), i could envision
it all! breathe life into it and give it wings. hold the gift of "dove" in my hands and set it free.
where do the souls of unrealized dreams go? do they twist and turn with incompletion? or vaporize like butterfies
in fields of zen like resolution?
but no.... i'm turnin' my back on words now. - i just wanna sing
a simple song.
(all the while the wind was in the willows, and the seven pillars was in my wisdom, -
the seven pillars was in my whim-som!) ____________ __________ music and words: Frank Orrall
