about

From Bollywood Hula Bard (vol.3), the one and only time I've played banjo

lyrics

I hope that I live long enough for my son to see,
his father grow up and become all that he can be,

some people play their cards right and then there's those like me,
who bet it all, big or small and live in fantasy,

I sit and strum on my guitar, while buildings go up around me,
I came here to escape this fear but is has finally found me,

I've stood my ground on principal and thought myself invincible,
as long as I followed my heart but it has led me back to the start,

choices, I made choices,
the ones I wish I never had,
my love has left me so so sad,
it's not where I thought I would be,

Choices, awful choices,
what voices should I listen to?
the ones of me or ones of You?
I don't know who I'm talking to,

Faces tell me everything,
My son just Hope's the day will bring,
His father home, security,
and if that's all I'll ever be, I hope I'll do so happily, 

It's time to cut your losses and fire all your Earthly bosses,
put down other people's crosses,
you can't even manage your own,

Now I'm out here on this freak, when see?
I met some girl so much like me, 
She drank from streams and swung from trees, 
And made room in her nest for me, 

But like a bird with broken wings,
I could not fly and do the things, 
that lovebirds do,
and the whole world sings,
oh how my mother's silence stings,

Choices, no more choices,
A sitting duck and hearing voices,
Sad and stuck,
now what the fuck is left for me to do but suck, 
The life out of my absent love, 
Who ran away from day one of,
Her vow of neverending love,
Always leaving, sending love,

She had her own choices,
and they too weren't easy ones,
I know she loved me,
oh she loved me,
like no other one,

Choices, awful choices,
and just like me, she had her voices,
telling her, 
but what they were,
I doubt if I will ever know,

I hope I live a hundred years,
with silver hair and hairy ears,
and once I've conquered all my fears,
take to the air with you my dear...
