Songs From a Room
Sing for me Leonard, sing deep, long and slow
from the darkest corners of this circular room
Pray sing Hallelujah …………………………………
sing loud and sing clear
Let those angel tears flow and maybe you will
tell me of the beauty you once found in chaos
Then teach me to live, to love and not hate …
Sing for me Leonard, sing slow, long and deep
from the barest corners of your secular room
Pray sing Hallelujah …………………………………
sing clear and sing loud
Make those angels all proud and maybe one day
tell me of the sorrow, you once found in beauty
Then teach me to live, to love and not hate …
Sing for me Leonard, sing cool, dark and deep
from the sharpest corners of this celibate room
Pray sing Hallelujah …………………………………
sing honest and true
Let those angel hearts beat and maybe one day
show me the wonder you found hidden in poetry
Then teach me to live, to love and not hate …
