Warren Zevon‘s poetry reminds me of America the beautiful. Here’s Justin Gaston‘s acoustic souled version of it, for reflection today:
She tells him she thinks she needs to be free
He tells her he doesn’t understand
She takes his hand
She tells him nothing’s working out the way they planned
She’s so many women
He can’t find the one who was his friend
So he’s hanging on to half her heart
He can’t have the restless part
So he tells her to hasten down the wind
Then he agrees he thinks she needs to be free
Then she says she’d rather be with him
But it’s just a whim
By which she hopes to keep him on the limb
She’s so many women
He can’t find the one who was his friend
So he’s hanging on to half her heart
He can’t have the restless part
So he tells her to hasten down the wind.
