Jelly Roll

Jelly roll

Watch em fall
Sadness of a lost season 
No time to reach out and touch a life or a song

Jelly roll
Theres so much a child in you
Things we talk about appear nothing extreme
But although  my mind always wants it all
A hang glide in the sky won't happen today
Ill tell you what I hate
You can show me what you...like
There's no other way it can go.. jelly roll

Each day every step
Each day every step
Every step is another Feeling away from paradise
Away from the strongest human desire
Its not chocolate
Not caffeine or cigarettes nor booze

The talent that you sling
Its the kindness of your lips
The unknown treated like king
The wrestle of your hips
The Van morrison thing 
melody  loops in my mind..... in my brain
She got ...something
about Blue Money and Tupelo Honey

The likened matters
of  the magic in music 
Songs for sunshine songs for rain People were kids
Chains replaced Innocence reines
Make them young 

The cowards and bastards
Make their desperate shadows
Disappear

A room in heaven
A white silver bed
A cherry gold carpet
Windows of perceptive
Air as thick as steel
My love a crush
On my Jelly roll
