Sometimes A Song Says It All

Circa 1987

Sometimes A Song Says It All

Sometimes a song says it all;

Sometimes it says too much.

Now I'm all alone.

I don't like how the words touch

At the marrow of the bone.

--------------------------

Sometimes a song says it all;

Sometimes its meaning changes.

Now I'm all alone.

I don't like this tune's strangeness

At the marrow of the bone.

--------------------------

Sometimes a song says it all;

Sometimes it doesn't speak to me.

Now I'm all alone.

I don't like the song's inability

To get to the marrow of the bone.
