Sidewalk Star
I was like a butterfly
I could hop and I could fly
I loved to hide myself from your eyes
I often stayed awake in the night
I loved my bonsais and flowers
I liked to walk in the showers
I loved to sneak under the covers
I wear my old jeans over and over
I felt I had some super power
I wanted my life to change over
I felt a lightning, a shudder
I then needed a shoulder
I realised life is now different
I knew this always, was dormant
I kept walking, no more deterrents
I didnt lose faith, not any errant
I now lie down with a pool on my back
I close my eyes, it's bitter I know that
I raise my head, see my guitar bag
I am far from over, just a sidewalk star
I still want to fly high
I often says my tears a bye
I feel fine as the days go by
I go strong and I still can smile
