LISA--

MY TAKE ON THIS ONE--I LIKE IT--JMHO IN CAPS--USE OR LOSE--


You're a Thinker
(c) 2011 Lisa Gundling

You're not what I expected at all
YOU’RE MORE LAID BACK AND CAREFREE
ACCEPTIN’ LIFE WHERE THE CHIPS FALL
Rolling through punches LIKE A STIFF BREEZE.

YOUR RICH COLORS WAVE LIKE A BANNER
BEING DRAWN INTO MY WORLD WITH EASE
BEGGIN’ ME TO OPEN BOTH EYES WIDER
SEEIN’ INNOCENCE MAKIN’ ME BELIEVE.

CHORUS
You're a thinker I’M PROUD TO KNOW
INTO philosophy, theology and prose
Like Auguste Rodin once had in mind
When he cast that great bronze of a man
Who sits pondering the fate of humankind

BRIDGE
Though as Juliet said of her rose Romeo
By any other name you'd smell as sweet
Like that, I love you so, IN OUR CAMEO

AT OTHER TIMES I SEE brilliant reflections
You STIR my imagination WITH EACH ONE
Unleashing my strongest affections
Lighting my way as you ORBIT THE sun


CHORUS
You're a thinker I’M GLAD TO KNOW
INTO philosophy, theology and prose
Like Auguste Rodin once had in mind
When he cast that great bronze of a man
Who sits pondering the fate of humankind

BRIDGE
Though as Paulsen writes of the wise Eskimo
We each HAVE TO live our very own song
Like that, I love you so, sweet Eskimo
