The Music of You
Finding Harmony in Solitude: The Music of You by Jim's Big Ego
Lyrics
I ain't got no high notes
I lack the ability to hit high musical notes.
And I don't get high on my lows
I don't find pleasure or satisfaction in low moments.
And I don't have no fine clothes
I don't possess fancy or elegant clothing.
To dance around this stage
I don't engage in theatrical or showy behavior on this stage.
And I don't live in a high rise
I don't reside in a tall building.
And I won't drive a fly ride
I won't drive an extravagant or flashy vehicle.
And I don't have a wild side
I don't have a reckless or unpredictable side to my personality.
I kind of act my age
I behave in a manner consistent with my age.
But I get lonely just like everyone in this place
I experience loneliness just like everyone else in this place.
And I know it's only time
I acknowledge that this feeling is temporary.
All I want
All I desire...
All I want
-All I want here
All I desire here...
Is the music of you
...is to experience the musical essence of you.
I've got no expectations
I have no specific hopes or demands.
I defy exaggeration
I resist the use of exaggeration or hyperbole.
I don't rely on some salvation
I don't depend on some form of rescue or deliverance.
To come and set me free
I don't anticipate external forces to liberate me.
I don't wait for a big break
I don't wait for a significant breakthrough or opportunity.
I won't make that mistake
I won't repeat the error of expecting a major turning point.
I made friends with heartache
I've accepted and befriended the pain of heartache.
And plain reality
I embrace the unadorned truth of reality.
Because I get lonely just like everyone in this place
I feel the pangs of loneliness common to everyone in this place.
And I know it's only time
I recognize that this sense of isolation is transitory.
All I want
All I desire...
All I want
-All I want here
All I desire here...
Is the music of you
...is to experience the musical essence of you.
And I get lonely just like everyone in this world
I feel loneliness just like everyone else in this world.
And I know it's only time
I understand that this feeling is temporary.
All I want
All I desire...
All I want
-All I want here
All I desire here...
Is the music of you.
...is to experience the musical essence of you.
