WORDS UNDER WORDS

Lyrics
There are words under words Stories to be told On the figured wheel There are many restless souls
The world is not as small As it may seem From behind these fragile walls Of claims and creeds
Now there’s a universe next door Another way of life Where you’ve never been before There’s a different kind of light
Chorus
The world turns upside down Every single day It takes sagely fools and saintly clowns To find the way But in the turning in the burning In the changes we are one In the longing for belonging In the search for meaning we are one
Now I have words to speak Mysteries to solve I’ve been wondering What’s the meaning of it all
Chorus

This is a beautiful song, but it's the timbre of that guitar that's absolutely captivated me. What an extraordinary tone. It sounds like my Stick or Warr guitar in places. Are you hammering on? Whatever you're doing, it works!
