I love to be transported
To another place and time
Be it by writing
Or music’s amazing rhyme
Dreams can only
Take you so far
You have to find inspiration
To raise that bar
Is there a better rhyme
Than this American Classic’s Line?
“Give me the beat boys
And save my soul
I want to get lost
In your rock and roll”
That is how I view music
Its why I listen at all
I love to hear the music
While watching the leaves fall
Trust me in this
When I say
I could listen to rock
Every and all day
But then there are times
That motion pictures set up the best lines
Some people can scoff
At the movie Avatar
When I watched it the first time
I dreamed I was seeing a distance star
From a world
I had never seen
A lush land
With tons of green
Sure the people were blue
But I was one of them
Daring to rise up
And share freedom’s dream
I live for moments like these
When I’m transported through outrageous dreams
If I could live
Under another sun
Or be taken away
By rock and rolls sweet fun
Then I would dance along
With my wife
In a place far from here
Without any strife
Because in these places far away
Where inspiration rules the day
My wife and I, in each other’s arms would lay.
Because each other’s love will stay
The funny thing is, no matter what I say
This is my life already, in every way.
