My golden brass Did you hear a silver tone. One day I remembered the sound we made. Oh boy with thirteen trys I played the song of things. The sound was a still like a drop of rain. Great full Holst composed his eyes in vain. And now im chopping my lips with my dreaded lay over. Five years ago and now im searching the twenties For old photographs about the way I played. My heart stops and excepts the choices I made. Because the future now the preseant is grey like a grave. I still dream of film and simpler days. Like it was still ambitious When I see trombones sliding and clarinets deciding What reed made the sound of jazz.
