I've never been good at identifying lyrics in songs, but now that I sing in public, I construct an emotional story to remember and deliver the lyrics. Now I can't help but find the emotional stories in songs, and I can't listen to I've Got To Use My Imagination by Gladys Knight & The Pips without crying like I've broken my leg. And it used to just be a fun song.
