Music Lasts

Floppy Jalopy

rpm 2023
Drums: Kevin Leonard
Lead Guitar: Rich Clark

a darkened stair
a shadow leans
the steps lead down
the music bleeds
through the door
there’s life within
it opens up
the night begins

a stare a nod
familiar gaze
a drink a smoke
the music plays
just sitting thinking
chatting drinking
just wasting time
til life on stage

when you feel it
you will know
the music takes you
and you must go
a minute, hours, days may pass
what only matters
music lasts

the song is over
it all must end
you pack it up
and start again
another day
another show
the songs are written
and the music flows

when you feel it
you will know
the music takes you
and you must go
a minute, hours, days may pass
what only matters
music lasts
