Like Robert Johnson

from Pareidolia by Bob Gaulke

/

lyrics

I start more stories than I finish
Love more women than I sleep with

Intentions misplaced plans mislaid
Savings destroyed faiths betrayed

Burning decades like paper
Cut-out lives saved for later

Don’t claim to understand it don’t matter
Holding on to ephemera


Spinning the world without pursuing it
Screams blur, sounds indifferent
Calling for me like Robert Johnson
Shadows on the equator

You come to me with the promise
We won’t need to hear tomorrow

Hesitating in front of yesterday
Ducking out into the rain

That distant dog’s barking again
Sounding like he’s ready to sing

Life happens and it happens again
Needles falling on our heads
