Ain’t Going Home “No More” By Paul Wilson I ain’t going home no I ain’t going home no more I’ve turned my back on the past forever closed that door Been down and out been left for dead Kicked and cut shot in the head I ain’t going home no more nothing left for me there Family and friends…ha hell they don’t care Kicking rocks like I been kicked walking down this road of despair Tried my best in every way but it didn’t get me anywhere Ain’t going home no more Ain’t going home no more Made up my mind to leave while I still can Play my music I’m a blues man Let my music touch your heart feel my pain from within Nothing left too lose nothing left too win I’m leaving today ain’t going home no more Turned my back on the past time to open another door I’m just a blues man playing my music while I roam Feeling the pain of you trying to find my way back home ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ Paul |

Dear Paul, that's a deeply melancholic blues song, it touches the heart. Love, Margherita |

Paul, that is a sad post my friend and although it is always great to open some new door, don't, definately don't close the door at home, for really, there is no place like home. Good luck and always remember things are never as bad as they seem. Lindsay |

Paul~ You do the blures so nicely ... sadly ... but so REAL ..~ 'Turned my back on the past time to open another door' My past has turned me to another pathway also ... and I seek the road that turns me 'round to knock on another door ... knowing full well that the door way I've chosen to close may very well open again .. and if and when it does ... I may or may not have the strength to resist the return~ Decisions are often made in a moment~ Sometimes resistance is weak ... but sometimes we know that by holding on to another ... we can make it ... yes, we can~ I can hear your music dear poet friend~ Keep on singing~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

Paul - hello my friend, it's been a long time for sure. I see you still write the blues with feeling. Hope this is just a song, and not for real... BC |
