about

Original song using looperman material (to be cited)

lyrics

Lord can you tell me 'bout the ways
The first parallel sun rays
Stream across the Earth
And into my window
Lord can you tell me 'bout the space
Between the constellations
Uniquely from the Earth
That are in my window

Tell me bout the place
That I can only get to
when I close my eyes
And ask for you
would I see your face,
As near as my window?
If you showed me,
Would I even know?

Lord cause I'm dumb
Why am I so dumb?
Searching in the dark
In the depths around me?

Lord can you tell me bout the feel
That I can't help but chase?
Deep into the Earth
With those around me?
Tell me bout the real
the things that make us happy
Different from the fake
That I can see from my window.
Tell me bout the place
That I can only get to
when I close my eyes
And ask for you
would I see your face,
as dear as my window,
and if you told me
would I even know?

Lord cause I'm dumb
Why am I so dumb?
Searching in the dark
In the depths around me?
Lord but I'm free
So don't let me be
Smart without a heart
No Lord I ain't that dumb.
No that ain't very fun.
