People Are Pictures: The Song That Started The Rolling Ball

Here are the lyrics for my first offering.

PEOPLE ARE PICTURES.mp3 - [12.22.06]

People are pictures, some of them fixtures in our minds
Some of them fading, sometimes the films exposed to the light
I can’t get bitter, while there’s a flicker I will hold on
And when there is crying, I will stare straight up into the sun

Make yourself at home, it’s not cold here
Make yourself at home stay all night
There’s no expectation, there’s no expectation…
…that you’re ever coming back, ever coming back, ever coming
…that you’re ever coming back, ever coming back, ever coming

[short instrumental break]

People are pictures, some of them fixtures in our minds
The ones that keep stayin’, those are the ones we think of at night
Don’t let it break you, you will see colors that you’ve never seen
‘cause what awaits you, is the picture, the light, and shakin’ tambourines.
