True (live, Nouvelle Vibe, Shizuoka, Japan 2012)

from Live In Japan by Willie Wisely

lyrics

It’s a short walk down past sidewalk café
Where the green line connects with blue
It’s hard work singing for strangers all day
But I do

If my song is good
And my rent’s past due
Be the echo and ring
True

It’s a long day under the city of drones
But the heat lifts when trains speed by
And I can’t hear the string I just played with my thumb
But I try

If my song is real
My weary tune
Be the echo and ring
True, True

My song is good
You can sing it too
Be the echo and ring
True, True, True
