light up on the beach and cover my feet with sand
I like this kinda livin, ya im this kind of man
wake up every morning thank God that im alive
and I get to keep on livin this life.
when my head is full of sorrows and my heard filled with pain
i open up my window and go walking in the rain
for every step i get to take in my time
I thank God i get to keep on livin this life
when im dead and gone and my loved ones bury me
i will seep into the willows, rise into the trees,
grow up from the ground and speak the language of the leaves
If you listen from your window tonight.
This one has a rhythm of a favourite of mine, the works of Langston Hughes. It reminds me of the simple short ones, with a swing and glide, sing song like the West Indian voices of my childhood... I really like this one.
Thanks for sharing!
