Cakewalk

traffic is a constant
up and down the avenue
there is a whisper through the window from the wind
and as the shadows make their way across my neighborhood
the afternoon sets in
I am thinking of the woman
who loves to lay in the sun
and on who lately time has pulled a trick or two(
she would be the first to say her work is never done
nothing good comes easy true
IæŠ¦ a tired old romantic for the good old days
when we survived by feeling closer to the fold
I woke up in a dream I saw your face 
I looked up and we were getting older
itæŠ¯ a cakewalk to the patio
in the distance I can hear the radio
why is it so hard to let things go
god weæŠ³e got too much to carry now 
let her lay back and let the sun get hot
bring it on man with all youæŠ³e got
paint these blues over with one good shot
and at the speed of light slow things down
like weæŠ®e driving through some little town

now whatæŠ¯ this feeling that you hold on to
itæŠ¯ hard to push familiar things away
but if we make into something that makes us feel better
then thatæŠ¯ good enough for me today
I want to take this point in time and hold it
up to the light so I can see clear through
I want to shape this into something to ease your mind
now letæŠ¯ donæŠ° be confused
we donæŠ° ask for much from down here under the gun
maybe thatæŠ¯ been the trouble all along
I want to smile a little more
I want a little less control 
I want you to hear this song
