Lyrics
MAESTRO
In a café on Picasso street
Drinking memories warm and sweet
I spend an afternoon with Maestro
He dares me to be strong
Have clean closets or a book of songs
Have a smoke with me and tickle the beast
Chorus:
His is a story that will never end
A rip in a page that will never mend
A grinning coyote that leaves me to play
With a kiss and a kick
Before slipping away
Instrumental
Maestro can see into the heart
The truest story inside the art
Catching jewels as they fall from my pen
He still visits from time to time
A song on the radio, a brilliant line
A red-tailed hawk gliding on a breeze
Repeat Chorus
