Truth Is Truth is there’s nobody else who came before you, and never after you you completed the puzzle you accept me even all rusted and dull so stick me to you, together with glue ah you little pebble in my shoe I find truth in your deep ocean blue Truth is I hate to see your frown I’d rather go down flaming pieces to the ground spread my black feathers all over this town I’m guaranteed to raise a smile and to lower your defenses for a while I tell you, I’ll walk a lonely million miles just to tug at your soul luminescent when the moon is full Listen listen, listen to me, everyone every soul that wants to know in the whole worldwide playground slide listen to this song unheard truth is in my words: Truth is still a lie until the heart feels the cry keep us wonderin’ why we never get anything straight until we die so greet me, oh bountiful glory tell me the whole story tell me truth from wrong so sweet and so strong the love I left for you there in every curl of your hair Truth is I want everything good and with you I know I could get from the things I dream to the things that mean love and happiness but still, the truth is I find these things every second with you I find that the truth is here, there, everywhere beautiful and rare inside and outside of you "How do the angels get to sleep, when the devil leaves the porchlight on?" -- Tom Waits, 'Mr. Siegal' |

I am so loving these lyrics. I especially liked this ~~~ I’ll walk a lonely million miles just to tug at your soul luminescent when the moon is full and this too ~~~ every soul that wants to know in the whole worldwide playground slide that's such a great line!!!!  Has any of your music ever been recorded? You're a highly talented song writer and I always enjoy reading your work, soul drifter. |

"Has any of your music ever been recorded? You're a highly talented song writer and I always enjoy reading your work, soul drifter." No, nothing recorded. I haven't even written music for 'em yet, so who knows if even that would work. However, some of them do sort of read like the melody would be implied by the structure and flow. It's a good starting point. Thank you very very much, Blues. It's my pipe dream to be a songwriter someday..a real songwriter. I just gotta pick up a guitar and/or piano someday soon finally, to learn it all and from there I can start, or at least try. I really appreciate your comments, and hopefully someday I'll get 'em recorded and then I'll post 'em on a website or something for all to hear.
