Song List

      
Stringman 

     You can say the soul is gone 
     And the feeling is just not there 
     Not like it was so long ago. 
      
     On the empty page before you 
     You can fill in what you care 
     Try to make it new before you go. 
       
     Take the simple case of the serge 
     Who can't go back to war 
     'Cause the hippies tore down everything that he was fighting for. 
      
     Or the lovers on the blankets 
     That the city turned to whores 
     With memories of green kissed by the sun. 
       
     You can say the soul is gone 
     And close another door 
     Just be sure that yours is not the one. 
       
     And I'm singing for the stringman 
     Who lately lost his wife 
     There is no dearer friend of mine 
     That I know in this life. 
      
     On his shoulder rests a violin 
     For his head where chaos reigns 
     But his heart can't find a simple way 
     To live with all those things. 
      
     All those things 
     He's a stringman 
     A stringman 
     All those strings to pull
