when life gave us a fighting chance
and melody sang the blues
when we decided to take a chance
and felt we had nothing to loose
when we felt life stood still
Art made our soul rearrange
music made us swallow
a bitter pill
a potion to make us change
when living was an art form
on a constantly changing background
never did our actions mistake
we would ever back down
they are playing our song again
it's not about a broken heart
it's about years unspoken
it's about the years apart
it's about lives left broken
it's all about the body parts
no one makes a start unless
they hear about the life left un led
it's all about the words
that are artfully left unsaid
the 60's
they sing to me
in whiskey whispered rhyme
playing back to me
the memories
of a more or less
war time
