One More For Tonight

There is a page in my songbook that only reads "6 months later." Seems I took a hiatus from writing for a while. This is the song just after that page. There are a couple handfuls of songs that came before this that I haven't posted yet, but I've kinda lost order anyway. Besides, after tonight's posting frenzy, it seems fitting to finish with a song titled....

One More For Tonight

let's face this from another angle
it seems that's when things start looking strange
it's not the camera lens after all these days

put it into place
put it into place
put it into words i can say
let's try another day
let's try another day
today is moving in mysterious ways

don't compare to all the others
that's when it'll start to get a little strange
people just all react in different ways

so when it's time to let it out
don't hold back, now, don't hold back

put it into place
put it into place
fit it in between your usual ways
let's try another day
let's try another day
and forget for now that today remains

can see things from this other angle
and be satisfied that it's all strange
chance is not the problem after all these days

so when it's time to let it out
don't hold back, now, don't hold back

it's there if you listen
just take the permission
to take what you're missing
and lock up the confusions so you
don't hold back, now, don't hold back

put it into place
