A Swirl Of Colors
©Jerry Axson

She wants to dance with the boys downstairs -
all night long...
She makes herself up in the mirror fare -
while she sings this song...
Her momma told her - if you don’t slow down,
you’ll be the ruin of me...
but she can’t help it - she can’t control it,
she just wants to see -
if there’s a place in this world for a girl like her...

Just a spec on a sandy beach -
a warm impression in an empty bed,
a figment of someones imagination,
a swirl of colors running through my head...

She stole my heart when I wasn’t thinking -
I fell so hard...
if red means stop why does green keep blinking
she won’t get far...
It’s in her blood - under her skin -
she’ll be the ruin of me...
but she can’t help it - she can’t control it,
she’s just got to see -
