Testo For A Dancer - Jackson Browne & David Lindley
Testo della canzone For A Dancer (Jackson Browne & David Lindley), tratta dall'album Palm Meadows Benefit 1978
I don't remember losing track of you
You were always dancing in and out of view
I must have thought you'd always be around
Always keeping things real by playing the clown
Now you're nowhere to be found
I don't know what happens when people die
I can't seem to grasp it as hard as I try
It's like a song I can hear playing right in my ear that I can't sing
I can't help listening
And I can't help feeling stupid standing around
Crying just ain't gonna ease you down
'Cause I know that you'd rather we were dancing
Dancing our sorrow away
Right on dancing
There's nothing you can do about it anyway
Just do the steps that you've been shown
By everyone you've ever known
Until the dance becomes your very own
No matter how close to yours another's steps have grown
In the end there is one dance you'll do alone
Keep a fire for the human race
Let your prayers go drifting into space
You never know what will be coming down
Perhaps a better world is drawing near
Just as easily it could all disappear
Along with whatever meaning you might have found
Don't let the uncertainty turn you around
Go on and make a joyful sound
Into a dancer you have grown
From a seed somebody else has thrown
Go on ahead and grow some seeds of your own
And somewhere between the time you arrive
And the time you go
May lie a reason you were alive
That you'll never know
Now I'm gonna
I'm gonna ask David
I'm gonna ask David to, uh
To do this, uh, my favorite fiddle song
This thing's called, this is called "The Reel of the Hanged One"
And uh, so I'll see you after he's done that, uh
I want you to turn it up out there
