Quixote
Anchor
When I first heard Onlymeith’s haunting piano solo, I melted …such a thing of great beauty that it is. After many a listen, and a three a.m. insight, I wrote these, hopefully suitable lyrics, titled, Quixote.
If there were something I could say or do,
To change the way this mad world has come completely undone.
It would not take
a span of days
To raise my shield high,
defending and a-righting those prolonged wrongs.
But dreamers dream,
As dreamers do…………
And the windmills left so strong for me to fight;
Ever looming strewn through all these dark and fruitless fields,
To prove their strength, in bitter trumps
To prove invincible.
Still dwells a hope
within the heart
for the snowy white dove.
Fleeing from starless blackening nights without end…
guard all I love,
watch over me,
even though I’m broken……………….
If there were something I could say or do,
To change the way this mad world has come completely undone.
It would not take

To raise my shield high,

But dreamers dream,
As dreamers do…………
And the windmills left so strong for me to fight;
Ever looming strewn through all these dark and fruitless fields,
To prove their strength, in bitter trumps
To prove invincible.
Still dwells a hope
within the heart
for the snowy white dove.
Fleeing from starless blackening nights without end…
guard all I love,
watch over me,
even though I’m broken……………….
