A Different Town

A different town Not far away But stayed the night To see my doc today A different town Larger than mine And very different Not my kind of vibe An uptown feel An uptown groove Wouldn’t be bad But just wasn’t cool An uptown beat That I didn’t feel Just strangers being strange A town, yes, but so surreal I made my coffee Trying to wake up I start to write An upbeat song my help But sadness fills me The night before remains The images of sadness Stuck inside my brain An uptown feel An uptown groove Wouldn’t be bad But just wasn’t cool An uptown beat That I didn’t feel Just strangers being strange A town, yes, but so surreal I should have my own worries What will my doctor say But all I can think about Is the sadness I saw yesterday An uptown feel An uptown groove Wouldn’t be bad But just wasn’t cool An uptown beat That I didn’t feel Just strangers being strange A town, yes, but so surreal Whatever my tests reveal Whatever fait I have Pales to those I’ve seen Whose life is dark and sad
