about

Jazz ballad looking at the existential transition called death.

lyrics

Is there someone
I can ask about
still knowing not
what happens next
when comes that fatal lot?
(Hear that sudden urban shot.)

There's a war with Satan
going down
not tired yet
not out of breath you bet
not for what he can get
makes man to live

I've been through the mill
been ground to sand
by my own hand
life goes downhill
from bad to worse to brill
how could I know
the best beforehand?

Now I'm standing here
this very year
not over yet
still debonair
in spite of sorrows share
put to the test
in fate's roulette.

There's a pattern
in the stars above
also within
I looked high and low
for the Indigo.
Where do we begin?

It is love that makes
the stars to shine
and when I die
I'll sunburst into
light divine
learn what it means
at last to fly.
