Lyrics
SONGS ARE LIKE THE MUSTANGS
Crumpled balls of paper all across the floor
Candle on my desk burned to dawn
Trying to capture an essence
Weave a spirit into a song
Fight that devil of discouragement
When the right words never come.
Chorus
Songs are like the mustangs, girl
Out on the range and running free.
Go with the flow - don't overthink it,
Take off the shackles so you can breathe.
Slap that bass with your fingers, girl,
Thump the drums until they hum!
Good songs are like the mustangs, baby
You can't force them -- just let 'em come!
2
Sigh a prayer into the atmosphere tonight
Sweep those bits of paper into a pile
Well it took a while of waiting
But in time the answer came -
Wrote it down upon a napkin,
Filled my soul like a refrain:
Chorus
