That place lost its lustre, baby that’s a fact
We sat like birds on a wire
If there’s any chance we’re ever coming back
It’ll be with hearts full of fire
I cut some costs, pulled the streamers down
Said “no more visitors, please”
This place is a dump, at least I noticed now
And I’ve got places to be
So go on, march the street in time
Like it’s some sort of beginning
Are you in it to win it?
Twirl your baton, jog and stretch in place
The day is finally here
Stood up through the skylight, hair all in my face
I gave up all of your fear
I loved you baby, let the record show
I did my best to be me
You wanted someone happy on his own
I needed less to believe
Things can be hard to believe
So go on, march the street in time
We’ll lock step ‘fore we’re finished
Are you in it to win it?
Honest & uninhibited, Ben's guitar and voice move effortlessly and unreservedly from sweet to insistent to ecstatic. No posturing, no pretense. His heart is wide-open here -- as in youth. jobo3208
