walt wilkins - poetry lyrics
[verse 1]
some things i’ve done make my conscious burn
my very spine shutter and squirm
i only hope that i’ve learned
from my sin
i heard a voice when i was thirteen
got baptized and washed up clean
but the world has a way if you know what i mean
of scuffing you up again
and again
[chorus]
i can’t explain a blessed thing
not a fallen star or a feathered wing
or how a man in chains has the strength to sing
just one thing is clear to me
there’s always more than what appears to be
and when the light’s just right, i swear i see
poetry
[verse 2]
now somebody made everything
from the soul inside, out to saturn’s wings
how my baby smiles and how ray charles sings
of course, we were created
the clouds make rain, the ocean makes sand
the earth breathes fire and lava makes land
now that took a mighty hand
and a wild imagination
yup
[chorus]
i can’t explain a blessed thing
not a fallen star or a feathered wing
or how a man in chains has the strength to sing
like a bird, no
just one thing is clear to me
there’s always more than what appears to be
and when the light’s just right, i swear i see (see)
poetry
[verse 3]
the dreams i dreamed came back ten fold
the friends i have, the woman i hold
i look down and i’m on a street of gold
after all the mud along the way
sometimes the big old mystery just leans right in on me
and whispers, “i am home and i am free”
and i’ll take that any day
any day
[chorus]
i can’t explain a blessed thing
not a fallen star or a feathered wing
or how a man in chains has the strength to sing
i’ll fly away
just one thing is clear to me
there’s always more than what appears to be
and when the light’s just right, i swear i see (see, yeah)
poetry
[outro]
’round the corner, there’s poetry
down the block, yeah
(just one thing is clear to me) on the other side of the road
(there’s always more than what appears to be)
and just above my head, yeah
hey (just one thing is clear to me)
(there’s always more than what appears to be)
(just one thing is clear to me)
(there’s always more than what appears to be)
