I just want to say, when I am thinking about music and what it means to me and where I want to go next with writing for Cardinals, or for that matter, for just the sake of the song, I must say that I spend that time very much alone.
But you know, I found myself viewing the RAAchat tonight for a second. I wanted to see of there were any discussion about “tunes” and their meanings. And I justhave to say that the thread about “Two Hearts” where it was discussed what the “three words” could be, it just, well, it just made me feel so proud to be a writer. I mean, even if I am just a songwriter with I will admit a very limited amount of ability, teh fact that you thoughtful people are over there pondering meanings, wondering to each other what kind of dialog these “maybe” fictional people were having, gosh, that is the fucking biggest honor ever. In this very moment I am so moved by reading that discussion. To know those two people on that imaginary street someplace in my mind are brought to life inside your imaginations, my god, that just made me feel so happy to be able to do this for us. For you. Because I love making those words be something that not only a listener or a fan can think about, but something that can mean something to them later on as lives change in a very real way. They sometimes, when I play and sing those to you live, they hurt me, and they challenge my ability to hold on to my feelings and get the words across to you. And those very things are things I have seen in a life, in mine, and in others. And those very simple moments and simple questions, they will leave me forever at your service and forever finding my way through the darkness of my apartment to the typewriter in the still of the night when they cross my mind, and seem clean, and simple, and the just part of the little things that make a life so profound in our collective quests to find out who we really are, and how best to love others so that we can best love ourselves and understand just how powerful this life really is.
And so, in a weird way, I left that part open so that when I sing to you, I can alter the dialog to fit the very moment i am in, in whatever place with whatever has happened tome that day or whatever I observed in my quiet rumblings when I travel and respectfully eavesdrop on those quiet conversations I am blessed to hear at whatever diner or bookshop I am ghosting through in your towns (its why sometimes i see you and i just wink like :oh hi- not now-) it is like i am doing research for the flow of life there sop I might best translate your special cities and the things i encountered in the flow of life there. With total respect.
So, as a meager but well meaning gift, I will tell you what the original three words were, the ones that were there the day it it was brought into my world.
“Im so sorry….”*
