January Town

With the snow coming down
in this January town
how could I not think of you
Oh the words that you said
still echo in my head:
When one dies one is born anew

In the parking lot of the graveyard
a stranger walked up to me
he said if I was a bird I would fly away
if I was a bird I’d be free

if I was a bird I would just fly away
and if I could fly I would be free
if I was a bird, oh if I was a bird
If I was a bird I’d already be free of this town

So now I wander around
in this January Town
Searchin’ for something that’s new
But the snow on the ground
has hushed all the sound
and all I can think of is you
yeah all I can think of is you

and that stranger in that empty lot
opening his heart to me
he said if I was a bird I would fly away
if I was a bird I’d be free
and if you were there
I know what you’d do
you’d say oh yeah man
I wanna fly too
but you’re not a bird
and you can’t fly away
you’re not a bird
and you’re already free of this town

...a time a place and a girl. Nice song. Cool imagery...."snow has hushed the sound..." And the graveyard reference.

There are no storytellers of your caliber left on this planet. IMHO :)
