LET YOUR HAIR DOWN

9.22.04

 

rare and true

is what you do

now is here

and so are you

happy happy

happening

 

sing

it’s a mind thing

attach

you latch

onto some yesteryear

 

stay Dear

stay near

be here

 

who’s to say

that yesterday

was real

 

memory’s a tricky

thing

re-feel

and say

good-bye

 

today can bring

an inner sigh

an offering

 

never again

and never before

will

existence open up

This Door

right now

to BE

with it

 

hey sweetheart

fresh

and true

twirl around

it’s all new

 

the dance of life

keeps changing

 

let it all go

say it’s OK

anyway

even if not

all I’ve got

can’t change it

 

let it BE

soft and free

take the jewels

from your treasury

open your box

of memory

boy

now there’s a scene

 

honey just say

it happened it’s over and I’m OK

I plan to remain

here today

 

your treasure box

is full

of jewels and gems

from memories

of you’s and them’s

 

dancing

twirling

round and round

let your hair

all fall down

into your face

now sweetheart

you’re full of grace

 

Great Mystery

I saw that he

has hair aflame

it can’t be tamed

so wild so free

it sticks straight out

all about

white flames alive

with energy

 

my hair falls down

into my face

it's all over the place

inside I chase

Mystery

down the hall

through the wall

till we are face to face

then

I hear him call

 

Baby Dear

draw near draw near

can you hear me

 

one by one

each jewel and stone

has made you feel

much more alone

you closed the lid

and then you hid

the box under the bed

 

each night you slept

each time you wept

these jewels went to your head

 

enough

you said

the past is dead

but how

oh how to do it

again he said

 

Baby Dear

draw near draw near

can you hear me

 

dancing twirling

one by one

this can be done

you cannot take it

with you Babe

or you’ll be paralyzed

have some fun

and you will run

throw all the jewels away

 

today

 

throw them here

and throw them there

say here

take it

it’s free

it taught me well

about the hell

called Memory

 

running here

and dancing there

she threw her jewels

most everywhere

she didn’t care

 

hey sweetheart

fresh and true

twirl around

and it’s all new

I say

don’t let yesterday

ruin your today

 

hey

hey

it’s not too late

for your Big Date

with Destiny

 

throw those jewels away

 

you cannot take it with you

sweetheart

it never has been done

 

I looked him in the eyes

and said

I’ve been dead

up till now

I don’t know how

I made it

I’ll do as you say today

and throw them all away

even though I hate it

 

yet just as you

I like to do

my own thing

instead of throwing them away

I have this to say

 

each gem and jewel

was earned by me

quite honestly

 

each karma jewel

is here to fool

to trick

me into more

 

pick

it up and I can see

each karma jewel

was made by me

something I did

perhaps as a kid

then hid

away in this box

 

just seeing it

unlocks

a key in me

 

I no longer want

to wear them

as beautiful as each may be

I’d rather date

Great Mystery

 

the treasure box is open now

so I will tell you how

I plan to do it

 

on tiptoe

and bended knees

I’ll bow in secret

shhhhhh

I aim to please

the All and Everything

 

I plan to take them

here and there

in secret

 

to share

each gem

each jewel

and diamond ring

I’ll give away

everything

 

and when I have

nothing left

I will dance and sing

 

it’s not too late

I have a date

with Destiny

 

he looked back at me

and I could see

oh wow

that HE

was Destiny

 

took me by the hand

we danced

we spoke

it all was grand

 

then suddenly

I noticed he

was dancing very close to me

his hair fell down

into his face

all over the place

and mine was all aflame

 

I looked like him

he looked like me

we were the same

you see

he was lost Into-It

just like me

 

he danced so near

it was clear

beyond recognition

his hair was down

all around

I was lost within it

lost so lost

Into-It

beyond cognition

 

took me in his arms

so sweet

knocked me right off my feet

carried me away

 

beyond today

and yesterday

and still I hear him say

 

stay Dear

stay near

be here

hey sweetheart

fresh

and true

twirl around

it’s all new

let your hair fall down

into your face

till it’s all over the place

just in case

you didn’t see

it’s me

 

Mystery’s in love with you

so no matter what you do

even if you blew it

 

he’s Into-It

he knew it

 

just let your hair fall down

into your face

all over the place

and he will chase

you down the hall

through the wall

till you are face to face

then

hear him call

 

Baby Dear

draw near draw near

can you hear me
