This Old World Hey, Hey Yeah

[belovedofg0d]

What do I know about this Place?
I want to dream that I have a clue,
I try to find words down on my face;
But its the simplest things that will do-

Cause,

Its a fragile spin and a lively place,
I hope you know just what It's made of;
Hey Hey Yeah

Its the tears and joy that go with coming,
the same feelings that come with going;
Hey Hey Yeah

Its excited tones and a lit up glance,
A lovers waltz on a Moonlit Terrace;
Hey Hey Yeah

Its hot chocolate and a runny nose,
It's a bedtime story snuggled in Nightclothes;
Hey Hey Yeah

Its puddle splashes in office cleats,
and rocking the weeping one to sleep;
Hey Hey Yeah

Its the Diagram or the glossy tree,
the Fairy Tale or the intellect's ream;
It's Hey Hey Yeah

Its the curt response and the Diva's Glare,
The lowly soul that seeks a new lair;
Hey Hey Yeah

Its a trickled laugh and a smiling daze,
a mournful coo and a sweet embrace;
It's Hey Hey Yeah

Its a giggle or cry that's out of place,
the cruelest lie the loneliest landscapes;
Hey Hey Yeah

It's the mountain lodge and the county fair,
The grand piano or the rustic chair;
It's Hey Hey Yeah

The Words that don't mean words at all,
The numbers changing by this nightfall;
Hey Hey Yeah

Its Nights Toiled over Kitchen Sinks,
with wrenching sobs and broken heartstrings;
Hey Hey Yeah

Its the tucked in Shirt or the shirttails dangling,
The symphony or the crowd's head banging;
Hey Hey Yeah

Its the Proclaimed word and the whispered creed,
The mistakes I've made and my pleas for mercy;
Hey Hey Yeah

Its the Miracles and all the people,
The strongest ones and all the feeble;
It's Hey Hey Yeah

Its the Pushover and the Shove away,
Ones we love and Ones we shouldn't ;
Hey Hey Yeah

Its window panes reflecting the past,
Remembering the moments that last;
It's Hey Hey Yeah

Its the Cruel misgivings of just one man,
and silent mysteries of another's plan;
It's Hey Hey Yeah

Its awe to the one who crafted it,
every detail and every breath;
It's Hey Hey Yeah

Its the Master that wants to talk to me,
Communing with the King of Kings;
It's Hey Hey Yeah

Its the Praises given and heart's belief,
The Loving kindness new each morning;
It's Hey Hey Yeah

Its the biggest gains to the tiniest things,
I'll end it here in case it might be;
Hey Hey Hey Yeah
