Blue Guitar

Once I knew a man, showed me the sleight of hand In the blink of an eye he danced across the strings He played a song I'd never heard, poignant and absurd And to this day it leaves me wondering Don't let tomorrow find you wishing Boy, you got a mission to shake it, rattle and roll Oh now, just use your intuition You'll get less competition from the clock upon the wall You are what you are, you dream what you dream Play on your blue guitar for me Play me a serenade, a simple masquerade Play on your blue guitar for me Was he real or make believe or someone to deceive That time is just a folly we can't see You only know one song, play it right or wrong Cause the truth is always somewhere in between You and I, we can't change the weather And we're all in this together so let the strong wind blow Oh now, things will be much better If you don't become a prisoner to the reason you should know you know Are what you are, you dream what you dream Play on your blue guitar for me Play me a serenade, a lover's masquerade Play on your blue guitar for me --- Blue Guitar - Jimmy Buffett
