Double Dutch

Went to 5pm church last night.  Arrived just on time with the pickings for two seats together already slim.  Made me smile that we were not alone. 

Picked up little kimono shirts to sew later in the week and this sunny morning finds me at my easel with goal setting planned for somewhere later in my day. 

I was always mesmerised watching the kids who could do Double Dutch in the playground just outside our apartment when we lived on 53rd St. in South Central LA.  Still wows me!  I like to be wow'd.  I like to be inspired.



"Man on Fire", from the album 'Here'

Lyrics:
I'm a man on fire
Walking through your street
With one guitar
And two dancing feet
Only one desire
That's left in me
I want the whole damn world
To come dance with me

(ohhhhhhhh. Come dance with me)

I'm a hunter at bay
Come and set you free
Over heartache and shame

I wanna see our bodies burning like the old big sun
I wanna know what we've been learning and learning from

Everybody want safety (safety love)
Everybody want comfort (comfort love)
Everybody want certain (certain love)
Everybody but me

I'm a man on fire
Walking down your street
With one guitar
And two dancing feet
Only one desire
That's left in me
I want the whole damn world
To come and dance with me

(bah bah bah bah bah...)

Yay, yay. Come dance with me
Over heartache and rage
Come set us free
Over panic and strange

I wanna see our bodies burning like the old big sun
I wanna know what we've been learning and learning from

Everybody want romance (romance love)
Everybody want safety (safety love)
Everybody want comfort (comfort love)
Everybody but me

I'm a man on fire (he's a man on fire)
Walking down your street (walking down your street)
With one guitar (With one guitar)
And two dancing feet (two dancing feet)
Only one desire (one desire)
That's still in me (that's left in me)
I want the whole damn world (I want the whole damn world)
To come and dance with me (come and dance with me yeahhhhh...)
