LYRICS:
Lighten my poetry, cadences lightly
Give me chord changes to songs I can sing
Cover lost ground quickly, with grey skies now clearing
Under the ruins above on the hill
The TV plays songs to me in a language I dont understand
Got no purpose or prophesy, give me that sorcery
and I’ll give you the man that I am
Cats of Athens, give approval from the streets they roam
Every doorway, every alley that they call a home
Oh my delusions with my illusions of just where this road goes
You break into song much more than anyone, so I’ll let this night carry me along
We could have been anyone, held to task by anyone
Half mast and caught out on the lee shore
But fate smiled kindly and put the wind behind me
as I headed into the waves for the encore
Cats of Athens, give approval from the streets they roam
Every doorway, every alley that they call a home
Oh my delusions with my illusions of just where this road goes
You break into song much more than anyone, so I’ll let this night carry me along
