Son of a Gun

Son of a Gun (by Kevin Hanson)
Angels in the snow
Are devils in disguise
Every snowflake has a twin
Once it liquifies
We swirled like autumn leaves
As high as Georgia pines
Even stars fall through the clouds
Once they've lost their shine
On the horizon appears a disguised silhouette of a son of a gun
Do you see me now
Runnin blind
Do you see me now
Show me a sign
The barbed wire around my tongue
And the electric fence around your heart
Just background noise from stubborn boys that fades to oblivion
I miss that sound
I never told you about the dream
Where the family was a funk-soul band
With velvet jumpsuits sequined out and open at the neck
Like the Osmonds
With afros
All of our fortunes are leftover portions
I'll settle for riches within
Do you see me now
Running blind
Do you see me now
Show me a sign
Do you see me now
Running blind
Do you see me now
Show me a sign
