WRITTEN BY BRITON “PUNK ROCK PAPA” UNDERWOOD
Oh meandering and wandering and wondering what I’m supposed to be
Clouded in my judgement but clearly seeing you
Bending over backwards and jumping through these hoops
Teach an old dog new tricks for that is what you do
Piece of heart a piece of soul, lovers tryst the light won’t know, but my whole spirit aches to be free
And we are spinning round and round, dangerously dizzy, I know that I am falling but it’s worth it if you see
I am bare
I am naked
Scars they show
Yet you embrace it
I’m simply run amuck, cupids arrow doth strike, blinding pain but peaceful agony
And these scars
Glare at me
But your beauty and your grace has set me free!
Oh meandering and wandering and wondering what this all does mean
All I know is we’re falling and I’m free.

Gonna have to listen to some folksy Americana to find out what a steel guitar sounds like, but certainly I could ‘hear’ music, yaknow? ๐
