Balladeer
words & music by J. D. Haring
He sees
through the eyes of a hopeless romantic.
The world in
its chaos & utter despair,
Appears not to
change him or alter his sense.
In endless
frustration, he still seems to care.
He looks down,
as children, and up as a child.
He's old and
as young as he's called on to be.
He's home, and
he's homeless, where ever he is.
He's bound to
his life, and his lifestyle is free.
He's a modern
day travelin' balladeer, who
Sings his soul
for tips & beer.
And through
this veiled & clouded time,
A ray of light
shines bright through his rhyme.
To move the
hearts of all who hear, he's a
Modern day
travelin' balladeer.
To move the
hearts of all who hear, he's a
Modern day
travelin' balladeer.
In sadness and
joy, he molds your emotions.
His song, is a
Siren, that beckons to linger
And lost in a
sweet memory as a dream,
He'll reach
for your soul with the touch of his finger.
He's a modern
day travelin' balladeer, who
Sings his soul
for tips & beer.
And through
this veiled & clouded time,
A ray of light
shines bright through his rhyme.
To move the
hearts of all who hear, he's a
Modern day
travelin' balladeer.
To move the
hearts of all who hear, he's a
Modern day
travelin' balladeer.
