lyrics

after the rain.. in the afternoon
plane in the sky, as the sun broke through
light on the face of boy in blue
old men playing dominos

woman in gray.. is picking out vegetables
rock n’ roll plays from a radio
im reading the book at a table
capuchin and cake …cappuchino and cake

—i’m drawing today, on rice paper
black line on white paper
with nothing in mind i conjure memories
i’m drawing a face from a memory

i’m walking down the street to the pharmacy
...something for a headache..
i hear car breaks.. a pedestrian
cross at the green, not in-between

i had a black shirt, i was wearing it
like a sail in a scene , a scene on a screen
Errol Flynn set sail on a pirate ship
saving the cabin boy, a cabin boy

—i’m drawing today, on rice paper
black line on white paper
with nothing in mind i conjure memories
i’m drawing a face from a memory
